Heriot Bay Inn

Amazing oceanfront property and unique old hotel that brings you back in time. There is also a lovely gift shop in the lobby. Started off in a standard room. Very simple with a double bed and a single bed with in suite bathroom. Unfortunately nothing more. No coffee maker, no blow dryer (had to get one from front desk), and directly above the pub so when the live music started playing Friday night, there was no sleeping. Walls and windows were vibrating and the pounding music would have been much better if I didn’t have a headache and wanted to be in the pub. That said, we were fortunate enough to be offered another quieter room due to a cancellation, so customer service was top notch. We were also upgraded and did not have to pay extra. Sadly due to staffing issues, the hotel restaurant doesn’t open until 4pm so no place to get coffee or breakfast. Would have loved to have seen a coffee urn in the lobby considering the proximity and availability of coffee shops on the island. The heritage site can be appreciated for what it is and it is understandable that things are what they are, but slightly inconvenient. Price reflects what you get. Stay started out a bit rough especially without air conditioning and very loud room, but was turned around with the customer service. We ended up in a room with an outdoor patio where fresh air flowed through the door all night and kept us cooler.

Sehr schön am kleinen Fährhafen gelegen, netter Garten am Wasser. Historisches Gebäude, sehr kleine Zimmer. Service zurzeit wegen Personalmangels eingeschränkt. Kein Frühstück, keine Zimmerreinigung. Pub im Haus, deshalb laut. Darauf wird aber bei Buchung hingewiesen.

I know they do state rooms are over the bar can be noisy but the music/band was so loud you actually could sing along. This continued to 11:30 ish.There was a lot of banging and crashing that continued till at least 1 am that was unbearable! No breakfast to be had, restaurant doesn’t serve breakfast, for people staying with a 2 night minimum that is not cool. Doubt I’ll stay there again. There is some better choices on the island like Taku resort.

Cool pub beautiful spot casual don’t expect deluxe room but ok clean small it’s a cool old inn love it been back numerous times

The property itself is in a very beautiful area...lovely views of the marina and great pub. The dining room only opens for the full menu at 5 and I WOULD RECOMMED RESERVATIONS..we stood waiting for info when it opened at noon, no one helped us, we came back at 5 and there were signs saying no more space for diners, although the restaurant cooked the food for the pub you can not get all off the menu in the pub The rooms do not have any amenities that most do, no tv, radio or clock or even a hair dryer...we were in the only room with two beds, mine was hard and noisy...

This hotel is 100 years plus in age, so the worldly charm is there, but rooms are small and the hallway needs new carpeting. Lovely yard with wicker chairs

We stayed at Heriot Bay Inn for our 10-year wedding anniversary and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish. First off, the staff were incredible — genuinely friendly, welcoming, and so helpful throughout our stay. The rooms were cute and quaint, with the perfect cozy charm that made it easy to relax and unwind. The inn itself feels like a beautiful heritage building, full of character and history, adding a special touch to the whole experience. And the view of the Bay? Just stunning. Watching the sunrise and sunset here will quite literally take your breath away. We also loved the on-site pub — the food was incredible, fresh, and full of flavor. And with the Cortes Ferry just down the street, it was easy to take a spontaneous little day trip to explore even more of this beautiful area. This place made our anniversary feel truly special. We’re so happy we chose to stay here, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a magical getaway!

The HBI is an historic inn on the water adjoining a marina. Includes a lively pub, frequently with live music.

Great location; very friendly folks working in pub, at the front desk & in the restaurant; very good meal in the restaurant; good chowder in the pub; building was nice & quiet after 11pm; bed was very comfy & bedding was good quality.

We stayed in one of the three cabins behind the inn. Our cabin was larger than expected, and had a full kitchen with dishes, cutlery, coffee maker...all the important stuff. Pub downstairs was cool, and the crazy view from the kitchen tanle made my morning coffee worthwhile. Loved it there and will be rebooking.

This place was not worth the price I paid. $399 per night was not ok for what we got. This place is old and was never renovated and there was a strong foul smell in the entire place. Some windows also didn’t have screens making it impossible to leave the windows open without bugs flying in.

Rooms were small, but clean and tidy

Well kept for historic building

It is a lovely heritage building ideally located on the cove with great views to Heriot island. However the room was very disappointing. Not the same as photos … no window in room, and poor cleanliness / state of repair.

Quiet,clean,spacious

This hotel is 100 years plus in age, so the worldly charm is there, but rooms are small and the hallway needs new carpeting. Lovely yard with wicker chairs

Graet location, too mant broken fittings

Parts of unit not cleaned. Washroom and kitchen in particular. Area out front has tripping hazard. Fell and seriously sprained my ankle and then saw a small girl trip while I was laying on the ground. Told the staff that the depression need to be identified, but when we returned nothing was done. No yellow paint or even a pylon. Staff didn’t ask if I was alright. Bloody bruised left leg, sprained right ankle. Not impressed and won’t go back.

An older property with simple rooms, great local colour, and gorgeous location.

The location is beautiful but be prepared for more rustic and cramped accommodations. Overall we enjoyed our stay here.

1) We were not happy with the shower in room 12. The water would be pleasantly warm and then turn ice cold and not warm up again. 2) For the price of the room, the mattress should be better quality.

The room was too small and cramped therefore, no coffee, no drinking glassware. Nowhere to setup a laptop. No tv or AC! Very limited amenities for the price. Would only stay there again in a pinch.

Historic Inn in a beautiful location. No TV or modern type amenities might bother some, but made for a very peaceful two evenings . Rooms are smaller due to age of the building but had a small private veranda . Brian at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed staying here.

Lovely location for this heritage property. Teensy tiny room and unique bathroom. Don’t expect luxury but fun and I’d stay again!

I liked our stay with you very much with one glaring exception. On July 18th there was a very loud party going on outside with very loud music and it kept going until after midnight. No sleep was possible during this time. No staff members were around to control the noise. I would like to suggest that you implement the following changes: 1. Post notices that there should be no parties or noise inside or outside after say 10:00 PM. 2. Have a staff member onsite all night to handle parties / noise concerns. OR at least post a phone number that can be called to ask for help. When we told the staff member at checkout on Friday morning, she was so sorry and gave us a free night to compensate for the inconvenience. This was a lovely gesture and good PR on her part but the problem should never have been allowed. I will return to your lovely Inn as I loved it all but for the noise on Thursday night. I realize that people want to have fun but peace and tranquility are also important for all your guests not at the party. Alastair Campbell

We stayed two nights here with a toddler and it was a great little getaway before our big camping trip. It was relaxing and everyone was friendly.

I loved the charm of this old building and how well restored it is The staff are super friendly and helpful A nice place for a restful break from the busy world

We had booked only one night but would have liked to stay for longer but we had to get home. We got a free upgrade to one of the cabins which was lovely. Juanita, the manager we dealt with, bent over backwards to be accommodating and hospitable. She made our stay special. We enjoyed the free presentation in The Pub that night of Shawn, the Rock Hound, which was very interesting and we learned something new. We will definitely go back!

The peaceful setting made for a great get away. Absolutely loved this place and the old vibe in the halls and bedrooms.

The rooms are ridiculously small. Except there is one suite that is nice. 125 year old building in surprisingly good condition. We didn't stay because the rooms were so very small; they must have been build for single beds. The attached pub was fun and had good food. We actually didn't stay in the Inn as the room was not very nice, just too basic and uncomfortable. But, the staff was kind enough to find us a different place to stay.

I know they do state rooms are over the bar can be noisy but the music/band was so loud you actually could sing along. This continued to 11:30 ish.There was a lot of banging and crashing that continued till at least 1 am that was unbearable!
