"We had a wonderful stay at Tucked Inn and really enjoyed our experience from start to finish. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and communicative throughout our stay, making everything easy and comfortable. The space is gorgeous, thoughtfully designed, and very well maintained. It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We especially loved the location, right in town and just steps from restaurants, bars, shops, and activities. It made exploring the area incredibly convenient...

Top BC Forest Discovery Centre Hotel Reviews

Oceanfront Suites at Cowichan Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Big rooms and nice view Sea lions were a little noisy but not much you can do about that"

Sidney Waterfront Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed for one night for the morning flight the following day. So location wise, it's definitely a 5-star. Sidney is a very nice, quiet little seaside town. This inn is a very nice place as a 3-star hotel. It has all the basic amenities you need: a small breakfast space, an indoor bike storage. Friendly staff. The room is clean and has everything you need for a short stay. Bed was comfy. Wish I stayed a little longer to spend a bit of time in the neighbourhood."

Wessex Inn By The Sea

8/10 Good

"Very nice staff, room was very nice"

Thunderbird Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"A little noisy from other patrons"

Croftinn & Motel

8/10 Good

"we checked in very late, but the staff was cheerful and helpful"

Best Western Plus Chemainus Inn

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best things about this hotel is Hesham (Front Desk/check-in). He welcomes you like an old friend (even if it's your first time staying there). Our room (and two other groups/guests) wasn't ready - not his fault as we were early to check-in. He offered us a seat in reception, showed us where we could get coffee/tea from while we waited (they have an amazing cappuccino machine and a great selection of teas. When our room was ready (not long at all - we hadn't even finished our coffee's or the fresh baked cookies they offer daily), he didn't call out from behind the desk, he walked over to us on the couch and told us he could finish checking us in now. Our room was spotless, cozy and bright. The beds and pillows were really comfortable. Our room had a fridge and Keurig coffee maker. The breakfast (included with our stay) had a great section (eggs, sausage, potato, fruit, pastries/breads, yogurt, make your own waffles and a lot more). Our stay was 5 star. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for accommodation in the area."

"Cool.."

Oceanfront Suite with Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed my week staying at this property. Very neat and tidy with everything you need. Incredible views. Maple Bay is tucked away but situated very centrally on the island for heading out on adventures. Kathy is a lovely hostess and very responsive to any questions or concerns."

Westover Bed and Breakfasts

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived in a state of clinical-level exhaustion hoping to be revitalized by our 5 days. Everything about the property felt like it was put there precisely to help us achieve that. Ganges village was only 5 minutes away by car, but the cabin and its grounds were so peaceful and embracing that it felt like we were deep in the woods. And to bathe in the old-fashioned and wonderfully comfortable clawfoot bathtub under the stars was a highlight we won't soon forget. Never has lying abed scrolling the net seemed more incongruous. Our host was accommodating and provided breakfasts to die for. I could go on with superlatives, but you get the picture. Very highly recommended."
