This is an old building converted into a quasi Bed & Breakfast style Inn. Located in the Powell River historic/old section, it's about a 4km drive to the newer town area where all the typical services are offered. And while the Inn has charm & character, if our room was indicative, they all could use significant upgrading/renovating, ie, single pane/hard to open wood windows, bathroom towel rail detached from the wall, & the bathroom door didn't lock. Additionally, the included breakfast starts at 9am which is rather late. On the plus side, check in was easy, the king bed was comfortable & breakfast was tasty. Generally speaking, it's clean & comfortable but IMO 2.5 to 3 stars is the overall rating I would give it.

Eclectic Wedding Weekend

Loved the hotel, the room, and especially the delicious breakfast included in our stay! The room was well equipped and very comfortable, and the eclectic decor really made our wedding weekend feel special. It was exactly what we were hoping for! The only issue we had was that the hotel cafe was closed on Labour Day without any notice -- an issue especially since the breakfast was included in our fee. Such closures should be communicated to guests well in advance so we can prepare for a disruption in regular service.

This is a quaint and cute older hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean. I only stayed one night but would stay again. I did find a bug crawling on my sheets, but it wasn't a bedbug thankfully. Breakfast is provided but doesn't open until 9 am, and I had to leave earlier than that, so I missed out on that.

Definitely a charming old hotel, with lots of cool knick knacks in all the hallways. However, we found our room VERY small. Only big enough for the double bed, a small dresser and a sink. Also a tiny bathroom with toilet and tiny shower stall. Didn't like the curtain separating the main room from the bathroom. Needs some TLC overall. One HUGE plus though was the included full breakfast. Choice of items including eggs benny, eggs/meat/breakfast potatoes, etc. and including coffee/tea. And excellent service, though a bit slow with only one young lady waiting tables.

The manager was fantastic. Very friendly and welcoming, even though we came in late. This building really was the old court house and each room in the building, from the 1910s or so, has been converted. The decor, strangely enough, reminds you of Asia or perhaps Asian fascination from that period of time. Downstairs is the equally fascinating Edie Rae cafe where you will get the best breakfast (free with your booking) that I have had in a long time. The location is the old section of town. Since the mill closed the area has suffered, but there are many great buildings to look at. Downtown for shopping is a 10 minute drive. I can't recommend this place enough.

We had a room with two beds, which were in separate rooms divided by a door so that was a pleasant surprise. Eat breakfast in the morning was delicious and served promptly to order. The area around the hotel is a little older, but not a significant concern all in all we had a great stay!
