Our stay was excellent. The hygiene products smelled amazing. We used the kitchen for breakfast daily. I was super impressed by the organization of every room. The host was super helpful and quick to respond. I will definitely be booking here again.

Will be staying here again, next time I am in Vancouver. It is less than 20 minutes away from downtown, You can enjoy a brisk walk to Queen Elizabeth Park from here as well. The room was clean and as described.

I must admit, I tend to take 5-star reviews, especially when there are hundreds of them, with a grain of salt. However, Neocolonial Nouveau Kensington truly turned out to be a wonderful place to stay and deserves all the praise highlighted in its numerous reviews! It’s located in Kensington-Cedar Cottage (East Vancouver), which feels like a midtown area—just a short trip to downtown, less than 30 minutes by bus—yet the neighborhood itself is quiet, serene, and incredibly well-kept, almost like a little toy town! You will need to walk quite a bit or use public transportation. The nearest café is about a 20-25 minute walk away. But the tranquility here is unmatched! My room’s windows faced the backyard, offering peace and beauty. The guest house itself is beautifully decorated and equipped with everything you need for daily life! The kitchen has all types of dishes, appliances, a full-size fridge, and an oven with a stove. Everything is well thought out, right down to zip-lock bags of various sizes. I stayed in the Royal Room, on the first floor. I shared the bathroom and kitchen/dining area with another guest, but during my 5-day stay, I barely saw or heard them. I must specifically mention the impeccable cleanliness of the bathroom and kitchen. It seems like they are cleaned multiple times a day. If I visit Vancouver again, it will definitely be to Neocolonial Nouveau Kensington! It couldn’t be better! Thank you to the hosts for their hospitality and comfort!
