Hotel & Location: CanSecWest happens in Coal Harbour, on downtown Vancouver's waterfront — the conference hotel looks straight across Burrard Inlet at the North Shore mountains, with the Stanley Park seawall a few minutes' walk one direction and Canada Place, Gastown, and the city's densest stretch of restaurants and bars the other. Getting here is simple: the Canada Line runs from YVR to Waterfront Station in 25 minutes, the seaplane terminal is on the next block, and once you've arrived you won't need a car all week.
It's also one of the best-served hotel districts in the city: beyond the venue itself, eight quality hotels sit within a twelve-minute walk, two of them literally on the same block — so even with our room block sold out, nobody ends up far from the conference floor.
The reduced-rate conference room block at the Pinnacle Hotel Harbourfront is now fully booked. Rooms at the hotel's regular rates remain available — staying on-site keeps you an elevator ride from the conference floor, and it's worth mentioning CanSecWest when booking in case additional block inventory is released.

Late September in Vancouver is worth arriving early for: cruise season winding down, the seawall in fall light, and conference rates before the hotels reset for the season. Rooms in this district move quickly — book early.
