The view of the harbor was amazing and the town is very nice. The restaurant in the hotel was 5 star but the hotel itself is quite dated

Bed had lots of hair on it, I dont think sheets were previously changed. Was moved to another room, it was just as bad.

Glasses in cupboard needed a better wash (lipstick marks). Black hair on floors a tad off-putting. This is a "B" hotel.
Location was lovely.

We had a deluxe ocean view king suite … the only thing deluxe was the view. Kitchen not stocked very well so if you plan to cook take everything you will need. You can ask at front desk for extra kitchen utensils.
The couch in living room was very uncomfortable. The king bed was soft but comfortable. Room needs to be updated.
The suite was a comfortable size.

Almost every time we come to Vancouver Island, we stay here for one night. It's quiet, the room is big, and it's by the sea. The scenery is so beautiful.

The room was full of flys and spiders . Toilet have mold.
Dust and hair in the furniture and under the furniture
Staff does not even say greet you unless you do it.
No recognition of VIP status guest
I ask for 30 min extra for check out time and it was a big no.

Sweet ocean front hotel. You cannot beat the view of the water. The pool and hottub were great, though jets didn’t seem to work in hottub. The hotel is older so don’t expect very new looking rooms. Nonetheless, it was a perfect stay for our first visit to cowichan area. We dined at a few restaurants down the way and masthead was our favourite for dinner! Also make sure to grab an epic Caesar from the hotel’s on site restaurant. Staff were friendly. Tricky parking for our big truck but was all good. 10/10 recommend a stay!

Me and my husband ended up stranded at the Duncan mall due to the Malahat crash and the room manager sent the night audit manager to come and get us. I've never seen such kindness.
This is my 3rd stay here and honestly they might as well be family. If I had all the money in the world I would live here permanently and that isn't even an exaggeration.

Significantly overpriced hotel for what you get. At $500 a night this is way too much for a 2 star hotel. Second, hotel allows pets but make sure you call this hotel and let them know….adding this to your booking comments means nothing. The floors for pets are old, run down and not modern. Smell of old cigarette smoke present. Out of the two receptionists one was very nice, the other as well as the manager were not helpful upon checkin. They didn’t know we had a pet despite mentioning it on our Expedia booking. In the end they wanted to charge us more for an alternate room because of the pet. Absolute scoundrels. Cancelled our stay, lost our deposits on the spa next door and left. Would not return and warn others about poor customer service.

The room was large and clean with beautiful views of the harbour and ocean. Nice to have a fridge and microwave.
Screens on the windows would be a benefit.
