A Suite at Kitsilano Cottage

We have always seen our business as one that provides service, rather than just a bed for a night. We are committed to ensuring that our valued guests’ experience of their stay, in our beautiful Vancouver, is such that staying with us is at best A WOW! and at worst transparent.

Historique

Fondé en 2000.

Christopher and Sally bought here in Autumn 1999, because we loved the Kitsilano District and the house. We had our first guest stay in February of 2000. Our guest centered focus was so successful in those first months that we did a major renovation and refurnishing in February 2001. Sadly, Sally lost her brief, intense battle with cancer in early 2002. Christopher, regrouped and continued to run the business in memory of their original vision. We were the first accommodation in all of Greater Vancouver to offer complimentary broadband internet access. In 2009/​2010, we completely gutted the kitchen and did another major upgrading and renovation. Today guests’ enjoy a terrific Cook’s kitchen, digital TV on an LCD screen with pay-​per-​view and video-​on-​demand, in the quiet comfort of home away from home surroundings. And, they always find staying in Kitsilano to be as wonderful as we experienced when we chose this neighbourhood as home.

Gérant de commerce

I just love catering to people on holidays. I had experience with that when I was a college student and my dad and a friend of his bought a summer resort, which I managed for them. I discovered that catering to people on holidays, as long as you remain focused on them having a good time, is probably the best business to be in.

Having started this business with the love of my life, I have continued to operate in her memory, since loosing her to cancer over a decade ago. Sally’s memorial mentions that her nearly constant smile brightened the world. Doing this business allows me to see her smile reflected in the faces of my valued guests.
