JW Marriott Parq is the resort night out, inside the Parq Vancouver complex by BC Place. It's AAA Four Diamond since 2018, with a casino in the same resort, Spa by JW with hydrotherapy, and eight restaurants and lounges, The Victor and Honey Salt among them.
There's a whirlpool and a gym on the 17th floor, but no pool.
Marriott says plainly there's no shuttle, and parking is C$55 a day to self-park or C$65 valet, re-read Oct 2, 2026. Canada Place is about 2.1 miles by road on our estimate — the farthest of the six splurges from the ship.
Make the night the point, and leave 10 minutes for the cab.
Book it if

What you’re paying for, and what you’re not
At the Parq the money goes on the night out (the spa, the casino, eight places to eat) — with no pool and no shuttle. Green is on offer, gold costs extra or comes with a catch, grey isn’t there.
