Don't forget your shampoo LOL

The Beacon is a very nice place to stay and the location is perfect. The only "issues not issues" we had was that the mattress was getting worn drooping in the middle and it was filled with extra bedding on the top to compensate for the dip in the center and unfortunately making the bed high centered and I fell out of the bed twice. The shampoo was watered down, half filled and a bit old I say due to the smell and there is no bar soap. I know what everyone is thinking. Who doesn't bring their own grooming product and you're right but this is one time I forgot thought I could use Beacons. The only other concern we had was the poor lighting at night in the parking area. There simply isn't any. I don't think I would feel safe if I wasn't with my husband.

Lovely old English style boutique hotel, beautiful foyer, breakfast room and my suite (named Orcas Island) was quaintly decorated and very comfortable. Brian was on the desk for checkin and he was most pleasant. Sidney is a lovely walkable sea-side town with lots of choices for eating and shopping.

Homey B&B-type inn

Nice B&B-type inn in an older/historical building. More of a couple's place, I suppose, but I ended up there due to a delayed flight, and it was pleasant. Snacks and coffee and tea were on hand and a light breakfast was also provided.

Staff are welcoming and very friendly. Like staying at Gramma's old home. Loved my room - comfortable, clean and quiet. Come and go like being at home. Main floor is inviting and cozy. Short walk to the ocean and a great walking path along the shore. Very close to the airport and highway to visit the rest of the Island. Sidney is a wonderful, coastal community!

This is a very cute Inn. The owner was extremely nice and they really do try to make this a pleasant stay. It was exactly what I needed, being so close to the airport you would think it would be noisy but I heard only one plane. Everything was great!
