Vancouver is really a very easy town to get around. It's basically in a grid pattern. The center of the city is a 10- 15 minute walk (about 8 blocks) to the harbor area and the Pan Pacific ( Canada Place) and the SeaBus (ferry) building. It's a bit easier going to the harbor than back. ( A slight hill coming back,)

I have enclosed a map for you. The center of town with major hotels. restaurants, hotels etc is approximately bounded by Burrard to Homer and Robson to Dunsmore. I hope this helps. I will be at the Sutton Place Hotel on July 28th.

You also should check out the SkyTrain system. It's an "unmanned" people mover system. Their is a station right at the Hyatt Regency hotel (downtown) and another on the weaterfront. Check it out below.
