About Us

Art, Culture, and Exceptional Hospitality

Canada’s first Indigenous arts hotel, Skwachàys Lodge, combines art and culture with exceptional hospitality.

Eighteen one-of-a-kind guest suites, designed by local Indigenous artists and Vancouver interior designers, tell stunning visual stories about First Nations culture and feature original artwork created by the participating artists.

Centrally located in Vancouver’s historic Gastown district, Skwachàys Lodge is surrounded by acclaimed restaurants and popular attractions, making it an ideal location from which to explore the rest of the city.

Our guests can relax in one of a number of gathering spaces where they can enjoy a meal, conduct business and just relax over a craft beer or BC wine.

Offering the highest level of personalized service and premium in-suite amenities, Skwachàys Lodge ensures guests enjoy a comfortable and memorable stay.

We are also a social enterprise whose profits fund a 24 unit Artist in Residence Program in our building. The success of the hotel and gallery enables us to provide an authentic cultural tourism experience and create revenue which subsidize housing for Indigenous artists living in our building.
