What guests think

Travellers describe Sooke Harbour House as a serene oceanfront retreat with gorgeous views, comfortable renovated rooms, and warm, attentive staff, creating a relaxing stay steps from Whiffin Spit with convenient on-site offerings and a calm, boutique atmosphere.

Rooms are widely described as spacious and comfortable, with some featuring wood-burning fireplaces and private decks or balconies. Food and drink receive strong praise for taste and pastries, but there are notes about a cold dining room, limited menu availability, and uneven service. A few guests also reported no air conditioning, a nonworking fireplace, late check-in, and minor maintenance issues; overall, it's a solid choice for a low-key, restorative getaway.

What a view. Always wonderful when you can see the ocean from your bed. The food was delicious and thoughtfully prepared with touches like tomato coral and delicious sauces. We tried elk tartare and it was delicious. Couple areas of concern included: being out of many menu items, the fridge in our room was noisy and they struggled with the thin the lounge on our second night so we were unable to watch the hockey game. Overall we had a fantastic, relaxing stay. Just appreciate the hotel for what it is now and do not compare it to the former era

A non-working fireplace when it is one of the main features is not acceptable. No adjustment to the room rate. No offer whatsoever even though we expressed our disappointment twice. Pet rate of $60 per night is excessive. Most places are $15-30 per night maximum. We arrived early and requested an early check in if possible. Not only was this not provided but in fact our room was not ready on time and the hotel was much less than busy from what we saw. Definitely room for a lot of improvement especially when charging your rates.

We stayed the night. Our room was fantastic and the views were gorgeous. The room was very spacious. I would definitely go back. You can see the hotel is trying and so is the staff. They need to get their maintenance in order on their landscaping, and I would update the flooring in all the hallways so that they don't have to use those diffusers. The restaurant staff try hard, but they are not professional waiters and could use some guidance from professionals.

The view from the room was excellent. The onsite restaurant, bar, and coffee “grab and go” were great. Excellent property. The only surprising thing was that the room doesn’t have air conditioning. They may not need it most of the time, however, it would have been nice to know ahead of time. We opened the small windows and used the fan provided. The windiest had screens. The sliding door did not. Leaving the sliding door open resulted in mosquitos in the room. I’m not sure if there is enough airflow with just the two small windows. Perhaps put a screen on the sliding door? It is easy to walk the Whiffin Spit from the hotel. Parking is easy.

The room was very comfortable, clean, cozy and had a great view. The dining room was freezing and the food was just okay. However, the dessert was OUTSTANDING. Cudos to the Pastry Chef. Suggestion: Renovate the dining room, paint the doors going in and out of the kitchen, the dirt on them is very off putting.

I loved every single thing about this hotel. I was supposed to stay one night but fell in love with my room that had a balcony with the beautiful ocean view and the calmness of the property so I extended my trip by another night, which the staff was super helpful with. The hotel is newly renovated and everything is pretty much brand new. It's nestled away in a calm neighborhood and a walking distance from Whiffin Spit. I was amazed by my hotel room. The bed was big and comfy with fluffy pillows and sheets but it was the ocean view that took my breath away. Every morning, I would just sit on the balcony and relax with my coffee and watch the ocean. It's definitely the place to go if you want calm and quiet environment.

The bed was one of the best I have ever slept in. It enveloped me, I could have stayed in bed the whole time. The staff was very friendly and did everything they could to make our stay memorable. We will be back.
