Roses need at least 5 hours of sun a day, but there are some roses that do better in shade than others.

I don't believe rose bushes grow well in the shade.
They do best on the east side where the morning sun will dry out the overnight moisture. Then later they will be in the shade from the afternoon sun from the west. This is for growing the healthiest roses.

Roses do not do well in shade. They need a lot of sun and water. I tried roses in the shade and they are not happy. They are alive, but only have a couple of roses a year. And they are a shrub rose, which takes less sun than others. You could use double Impatiens. They look a little bit like a rose and can be planted in moderate shade.

In general, roses do poorly in shady conditions. Plants bloom less, are leggy, and are more likely to get diseases. However, many Hybrid Musks and some Albas can tolerate partial shade. The Floribunda "Gruss An Aachen" can be grown in partial shade.
Some other roses that may grow in partial shade are the Rugosas, Iceberg(FB), Zephirine Drouhin (Bourbon), Souvenir du Docteur Jamain(HP) and Madame Plantier.

I'm not sure any of them like shade. Even partial shade aggravates the fungi that attack them. You may want to reconsider what you plant there.
