Stay Curious. Stay Varscona.
Step into the buzz of Whyte Avenue. Step back into boutique calm.
You check in, drop your bags, and step into Edmonton’s most walkable, colourful neighbourhood. Vintage shops, street festivals, late-night bites, mural alleys, and coffee shops to people watch from - it’s all right outside.
And when you're ready to exhale, Varscona is your retreat. Boutique rooms. Warm hospitality. A glass of wine waiting in the lounge.
Sleep In Style
Spacious and warm rooms and suites have been recently reimagined. Complete with all vegan amenity line, Illy coffee for a pep in your step, and beds you’ll want to smuggle home. Thoughtfully designed for your launchpad to the vibrant Whyte Ave.
Reimagined Deluxe King
Step into our newly designed Deluxe King. Enjoy a plush king bed, an ergonomic workstation, and the simple luxury of Illy coffee, all just steps from Whyte Avenue's vibrant energy.
Reimagined Deluxe Two Doubles
Discover the newly designed Deluxe Double, a peaceful escape designed for shared comfort. This beautifully appointed room features two cozy double beds and a convenient work desk, ideal for families or friends traveling together.
Not Just on Whyte. Part of It.
From Fringe Festival stages to farmers’ markets, late-night jazz to alleyway murals - Old Strathcona is alive with creativity and character. It’s not just a neighbourhood you visit. It’s one you experience.
Wake up steps from pop-ups, pour-overs, and impromptu street performances. We’ll point you to the bookstore that serves bourbon, the speakeasy behind the record shop, and the best back lane for mural-spotting.
