About New Westminster

The City of New Westminster is situated in the center of the Greater Vancouver Regional District, otherwise referred to as the Lower Mainland. The City is attractively located on a hillside overlooking the Fraser River, 20 km east of Vancouver. The City Center slopes down from Royal Avenue to the Waterfront, offering excellent views up-river to the Golden Ears Mountains, southeast to Mount Baker and down river towards Richmond and Delta and the Straight of Georgia. The Downtown section of New Westminster with its sloping streets, waterfront views and heritage buildings reminds one of San Francisco.

Accommodations

Vancouver is the world's best place to live, a survey by thEconomist Intelligence Unit has found in terms of personal risk, infrastructure and the availability of goods and services. The moderate but changing climate adds to this beautiful city as the rain in the lower mainland purifies our air. The weather is never too cold or too hot.
