Lynn & Michael are sad to say we’ve sold our house and unfortunately will no longer be inviting guests to share the home with us. |
The Bee & Thistle is a warm & welcoming guest house located in Vancouver’s original Italian neighborhood, within easy walking distance of many moderately priced restaurants & charming coffee shops, yet close to downtown. See our calendar for availability & competitive rates.

Our goal at the Bee & Thistle is to give our guests a wonderful experience of Vancouver and what better way to do that than to introduce them to our vibrant food scene?
Although we do not offer breakfast, there are approximately 60 restaurants, cafes and coffee shops within easy walking distance. Exploring “the Drive” for breakfast will introduce you to the “real” Vancouver – a very diverse culture which has emerged from a wide range of ethnic influences, the original Italian roots melding into a fun, vibrant, eclectic neighborhood filled with coffee shops, cafes and restaurants to meet every budget and taste.
Only 3.8 km from downtown, the Bee & Thistle is located in the Commercial Drive neighborhood―the “Drive”―a destination neighborhood for great food, art studios, theatre & music venues, charming coffee shops & award winning craft breweries. City center is approximately 6 to 10 minutes by car―around $12 for a taxi―or 20 to 30 minutes by public transit.
At the Bee & Thistle we love to help! We’re always pleased to have an opportunity to talk about our beautiful city, book tours, provide tourist information, make restaurants suggestions, or assist in any way possible. If you have questions, please call or email us.
During your stay you will be pampered with a warm, friendly atmosphere that many of our guests say feels “just like home”, luxury linens, fluffy white towels, tea/coffee & delicious home made cookies, a refrigerator in every room stocked with snacks, and much more. Although we don’t offer breakfast, we are located so close to all the wonderful restaurants on Commercial Drive that it’s fun to go out and explore the neighborhood in search of your favorite breakfast.
