Hotel Zed should be on your A-list!
Great stay at Hotel Zed.. Service was good, easy check-in.. Interesting amenities! I enjoyed the throwback hidden arcade room.
Had a fantastic meal with exemplary service at the on-site restaurant ROAR.. Nice cocktails and a great selection of BC wines.
Good pastries and coffee at the ROAR
coffee bar in the morning.
I would definitely stay again.

A different vibe from the moment you step foot inside. Attentive and caring staff address all of your needs as you relax back into the groovy atmosphere. A very clean and well kept (and decorated) building. We had several meal at Roar, the on site restaurant and were never left wanting. Buttery soft pork belly or braised ribs that you will dream about for days. Our room was perfect with a comfortable king mattress, tasteful felt wallpaper, a big storage bench along the window, and a large bathtub with ample room for two. A memorable experience.

Hotel staff and restaurant staff were great. Property was clean. Ample parking available. Laundry facility was great. Coffee was excellent. Bedding was very comfortable. Cleaning needed to be done under the mattress. Sauna didn't appear to be working properly as it would not heat up well. There was also no bucket to add water to heater. Not enough towels available at hot tub. Instructions to run shower for warm water should be posted as people avoided the shower before entering hot tub because the shower was cold. Caulking around room mirror did not look great and it made the room feel cheap (311). Window for our room was hard to open and close.
