"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

Super 8 by Wyndham Duncan

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, very friendly staff. A little far from the center but worth it."

Oceanfront Suites at Cowichan Bay

8/10 Good

"Older building but well maintained with some room refreshments. Lacks built in A/C but provided a portable unit which I found to be somewhat noisy. Good location within small fishing marina. Could use some extricate upgrade to support chargers etc"

Riverside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed one night and wish we’d had a lot more time. The bed was super comfortable and the room had everything we needed. The staff were excellent. We ate at the pub for dinner (fantastic!) and the cafe for breakfast (also fantastic!). Definitely recommend the Riverside Inn."

Harbour House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was very impressed with the front desk clerk named Alex. He was extremely helpful in checking my elderly mother in ahead of time she arrived at the hotel before I did. Outstanding service. All the staff I met during our stay were excellent!"

Best Western Plus Emerald Isle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent very friendly check in."

Duncan Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice motel room size 5/5. Clean 5/5 bathroom5/5 but no proper ventilation and door is sliding. Maybe other rooms are different Overall 5/5 so convenient"

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Oyster Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff lovely inn"

The Cottages on Salt Spring Island

10/10 Excellent

"The unit was very spacious for 3 adults & a dog. It had lots of natural light. The upper patio was appreciated on a sunny afternoon. The beds were comfortable. I would have liked a few more towels in the bathrooms. Installing a dishwasher would improve the cleanliness of the dishes from one renter to the next."

Best Western Plus Chemainus Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The king room with balcony was like a mini home away from home. Very quiet (which we love), with great amenities, and thoughtful additions to the room to make our stay pleasant. (Great pillows, reading lamps, balcony with table and chairs, good closet space and hangers, great curtains to block out light. And everything worked (and this is not a given in many hotels). Would stay again. Thanks."
