Rosellen Suites at Stanley Park

Calm and cozy place close to Stanley park. Kitchen in suite.

Great option if you’re staying a few nights and plan to do Stanley park, sea wall, aquarium, English bay, lots of good eating places. Check in ok, clear instructions, however when we went down to bring rest if luggage up, the room key we took had not been activated and we couldn’t get in & with no reception open it took over half hour to sort, not ideal late at night. Fans available though no air conditioning, windows can be opened to allow air flow. Large living room, serviceable kitchen good for long term stays

The location is very good - but the check in wasn't as easy as described, i had to contact the property in advance and had to communicate my email adress first and then i could do the check in. After checking in we left our room to take a walk and later we werent able to get in our room. The cards did not work, we had to wait fo rsomeone to let us in. Then the replacement cards did not work either, we were told that we had them with our cell phones and these do impact the funtionality of the cards. But we were aware and the cards did not touch our cell phones, see the replacement cards did not work either. The locking system is simply outdated - as is the whole building. The staff slammed on the locking device of the door and suddenly it worked. The location is worth the price - but the 'hotel' is not. I asked the staff whether they could reduce our parking fee for this incident, but they said 'no'. I have to write this here, so be aware - 'smooth' is not the appropriate description here!

in a super convenient area only 10 minutes from the beach in one direction and 10 minutes from Stanley Park in the other direction. There were also many dining options close by on Denman Street and you could walk to downtown in around 30 mins. There is a large Safeway supermarket a 10 minute walk away which was useful for buying breakfast items. Despite being conveniently close to everything, the street itself is very quiet and peaceful. The apartment was a bit old-style in terms of furniture, etc but was perfectly clean and also spacious. We had 2 bedrooms, lounge area, kitchen and bathroom.

Old and not updated. Key cards routinely stopped working and limited front desk hours will leave you stuck outside. Get four key cards just in case. Location is great access to English Bay and Stanley Park.
