If you are going to visit downtown, go to Yaletown, the beaches, the West End, David Street, GasTown, Coal Harbour, etc.... before going to the "entertainment district".

I assume you mean Davie St? What's the attraction there in general? Let alone for an assumabley married, hetrosexually-preferring, guy?
Nice part about staying in central downtown is no car necessary to see a lot of the attractions. Stay around Pacific Centre shopping mall, which is central. From there, a 15 min stroll down to the water GasTown one way, a walk 10-15 min walk down Robson Street or down to Granville the other way, which really isn't that seedy. Or, do the self guided SC riot walk and hit up London Drugs, Sears, the Bay, and other "hotspots".
Last time we stayed dt Vancouver it was at the Metropolitan, which is central. A block away are the Hyatt, Four Seasons, Fairmont and a few more.
