The Hampton Inn & Suites is a free breakfast and a parking rate you can plan around. Hilton lists a free hot breakfast and covered self-parking at C$39 a day with in and out, on Robson Street by BC Place.
Re-read on Oct 2, 2026, Hilton's parking note adds a catch: clearance is under 6 ft, and there's no over-height parking. A van or a roof box may not fit.
There's no shuttle (Hilton marks the airport shuttle "Not available"), and the daily charge includes a destination marketing fee Hilton doesn't price. Canada Place is about 1.6 miles by road, our estimate.
Measure the car, eat the breakfast, and take a 6-minute cab down to the ship.
