The Listel Hotel
Dubbed Vancouver's "most artful hotel..." this hotel is a key partner to many of the city's most well known and respected cultural entities. Their restaurant has been a Robson Street landmark since the early 1970s and is a key supporter of the Ocean Wise program, the Green Table Network, and many Vancouver based charities.
"We are excited to hear that the City of Vancouver is initiating a program encouraging businesses to play a larger part in bringing about overall reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and we are eager to become involved."
-- Regional Manager, Jim Mockford
