Where to stay in Lochdale
Where visitors usually base themselves, and why.
Kensington Avenue and Sperling Avenue carry most of the through traffic, and a bed's usefulness in Lochdale turns on which of them is closest. This is single-family ground. The hillside stretch between Burnaby Mountain Parkway and Greystone Drive sits higher and further from Hastings Street, so it trades that frontage for slope and quiet, while the rectangle below Halifax Street keeps the flatter walking.
Driving suits it best.

About Lochdale
What are the main landmarks in Lochdale?
Burnaby Mountain is the one large feature. Lochdale has no monument to point at, so what identifies it on the ground is the road frame: Kensington Avenue, Duthie Avenue and Sperling Avenue running north and south through the neighbourhood, with Hastings Street across the top. Halifax Street shuts the rectangle.
Higher up, Burnaby Mountain Parkway and Greystone Drive bracket a hillside of houses that also counts as part of Lochdale.
What is the history of Lochdale?
The rectangle came first. Lochdale is a single-family neighbourhood set inside four streets, Kensington Avenue, Duthie Avenue, Hastings Street and Halifax Street, in the northeastern part of Burnaby, Canada. A hillside was added to it.
The residential slope lying between Burnaby Mountain Parkway and Greystone Drive belongs to Lochdale as well, which makes the neighbourhood larger than the block of streets its name first covered.
Where is Lochdale?
Burnaby Mountain stands close by. Hastings Street marks the northern limit of Lochdale and Halifax Street the southern, with Kensington Avenue west and Duthie Avenue east.
