Elegant 2Bdr Apartment in a Sought-After Location Overview
First Impressions
When I first walked into Elegant 2Bdr Apartment in a Sought-After Location, I’ll be honest — the name doesn’t do it justice. This four-star place sits right on West Cordova Street in the heart of Vancouver’s Gastown, and you immediately feel like you’ve scored something special. The building itself has that perfect blend of heritage charm and modern updates that makes Gastown so appealing to visitors. The attention to detail in the restoration work is evident throughout the common areas.
The Gastown Advantage
You know what’s great about staying here? You’re literally in one of Vancouver’s most walkable neighborhoods. I mean, step outside and you’re surrounded by cobblestone streets, steam clocks, and some seriously good coffee shops. The location gets rave reviews from couples — and I can see why. There’s something romantic about wandering these historic streets, then having your own private space to retreat to. Plus, you’re close enough to the waterfront that you can easily walk to Canada Place or catch the SeaBus to North Vancouver.
The Apartment Experience
This isn’t your typical hotel room situation — you get a full two-bedroom apartment that actually feels like home. The kitchen is properly equipped (not just a mini-fridge and microwave), which honestly saves you a fortune when Vancouver’s restaurant prices start adding up. The living space is thoughtfully laid out, and I appreciated having separate areas to spread out in. The bedrooms are comfortable, though the master definitely gets better natural light if you’re picky about that sort of thing. Natural wood finishes and updated appliances add to the welcoming atmosphere.
Practical Considerations
Let me tell you about the practical stuff that matters. Parking in Gastown can be tricky, so definitely ask about options when you book — street parking is limited and the meters run pretty late. The building is well-maintained, and while it’s not brand new, everything works as it should. The 7.7 rating reflects what I experienced — it’s solid, comfortable, and well-located, though maybe not the most luxurious option in the city. The WiFi is reliable (important if you’re working remotely), and the neighbors are generally quiet. Climate control is efficient year-round.
Why Guests Love It
Here’s the thing — this place works because it gives you the best of both worlds. You get the independence and space of having your own apartment, but you’re staying in one of Vancouver’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Couples especially seem to love it here, and I get it — there’s something nice about cooking breakfast together, then stepping out to explore Steam Clock or browse the local galleries. The value is solid for what you get, especially if you’re staying more than a couple nights. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it delivers exactly what it promises: a comfortable, well-located base for exploring Vancouver. Guests consistently praise the authentic Gastown experience combined with modern comforts.
Best hotels in Vancouver blend harbor infinity pools, cedar steam rooms, and chef-led salmon tastings.

Reviews of Elegant 2Bdr Apartment in a Sought-After Location
Ameneh from Canada (9/10)
The apartment is in an incredibly accessible area of Vancouver. The subway station is close, and multiple tourist attractions are within walking distance. The place itself is clean, comfortable, and as advertised. The host was available and accommodating. We had a lovely time!
Helen from Philippines (5/10)
There are no ac in the bed rooms. The one and only electric fan was not assembled. The towels smell like not washed. The bathroom door cannot be closed. I was stucked inside for nearly 10 mins. And someone had to open the door from outside with force. The shower is very weak. Even the toilet flush water is also very weak. Our overall experience is not good. Will not go back again.
