The Rosedale has a lot going for it: excellent central Vancouver location, very roomy accommodations, kitchen.
We've stayed in at least a dozen hotels in Vancouver, each for a different need and varying caliber.
Chose the Rosedale because we wanted a central location, needed secure parking (with taxes around CAD$30/night par for downtown Vancouver).
As Expedia Gold members were given an upgrade to a high floor. Great bedroom, bed, views but - kitchen/living area was dark (no window).
Called down & requested a change - staff immediately found a room with a wall of windows for kitchen, living, bedroom. MUCH better.
Appreciate staff that will listen to a guest's preferences!
Housekeeping was outstanding: lovely friendly people - showed concern that things were done as wanted.
As you'd expect for an Aparthotel, the kitchen is basic but all anyone could need for a week or less stay, esp with markets, cafes, restaurants all around this spot.
