The Waldorf is a creative hub in the heart of East Vancouver where contemporary art, music, food and culture convene under one roof. The programming for the space will be both artistically expansive and thematically inclusive. The complex consists of thirty rooms, two restaurants Nuba Cafe and The Leeteg Dining Room, a Tiki bar restored and retrofitted with a vintage analogue audiophile sound system, a hair salon run by Barbarella Hair, a gift shop, a nightclub and a live music venue. In the works are a multi-media theater space and recording studio tied to a residency program for visiting musicians.The Waldorf joins a new wave of Vancouver businesses that are conversing with the city, setting a benchmark for culture and hospitality.

For such a large area, there isn't much accommodation in East Van. It is mostly older and in the budget to mid level price range. The biggest concentration of motels/hotels is along Kingsway.
