Optimize for the workday, not the postcard
A hotel near meetings can be more useful than a landmark property across the city. Compare morning travel time, late-evening dining, workspace, reliable internet, fitness facilities and receipt requirements.
Airport day strategy
For a one-night trip, staying between the airport and meeting location may reduce ground time. For several days, a central base often works better. Check the actual traffic pattern for your schedule rather than only distance.
Reserved transportation
Executives or teams with tightly scheduled meetings can compare taxis and ride-hail with a reserved chauffeur. In Metro Vancouver, executive black car service is one option for airport, hotel and meeting transfers.
