We booked 2 rooms as our daughter and son-in-law came with us. They had to change rooms as their bed sheets were dirty. We had no screen on our window and had to have a cold shower in the morning as there was no hot water. We did enjoy a lovely meal in the restaurant.

The front desk staff were amazing, as were the beautiful rooms! Beds and shower were great, room clean, and the check in process pleasant. There is a small gallery upstairs that is worth a visit, and the connected pub has great breakfast options. I checked in around 1am after getting off the ferry from Prince Rupert, and would highly recommend staying here if you're in Port Hardy!

Only criticism is that the cleaners need to do a better job cleaning the shower. There was quite a bit of pink surface mildew in the shower that could be easily wiped off.

We didn't know what to expect of this new property and were pleasantly surprised. It is beautifully decorated with locally inspired finishes. The pub food was excellent, including breakfast which was 20% off for guests. We requested additional clothes hangers which we were given. The toiletries were high quality, our room had plenty of towels. Housekeeping comes only on request. Lemon/cucumber water is available in the lobby. There is a large grocery store next door and restaurants are a 10 minute walk. Do NOT miss Guidos Cafe and the adjacent book store and art gallery.
