Not true, even London, UK has way better accommodation pricing than Vancouver. Fact is, the lack of hotel construction through lousy City regulations and restrictions has exacerbated the problem here in Vancouver. The lack of competition also allow the few hotels here to raise room price to incredulous levels during peak seasons. Like it or not, Viewcones is one of the reasons why we are experiencing such high prices here.
Vancouver is now a total rip-off for tourists, IMO.
