What guests think

At Coast Fort St John Hotel, guests consistently praise friendly, accommodating staff and generally clean, comfortable rooms at good value, while noting a convenient, walkable location that some find offset by a rough-feeling surrounding area and exterior upkeep.

Breakfast feedback is mostly positive with hot options and early starts, though several report food not hot, limited gluten-free choices, or repetitive offerings. Rooms are described as quiet and comfy, but recurring issues include temperature control, aging fixtures, and occasional noise or Wi‑Fi drops. A few reviews mention false fire alarms and sporadic billing or service missteps. Expect a budget-friendly, comfortable stay with standout service, tempered by an older property and an uneven neighborhood.

After staying here and landing on the 7th floor and quite a walk down the hall for 70 ish folks, I learned to ask for a closer to the door room. Also I had to park around the very back of the hotel with my truck in a snowstorm and no plug-ins for a diesel. Room was clean and well supplied with a good bed and quiet.

Street appeal was low. First impression coming to the reception was low to moderate. Didn’t see an elevator had to take the stairs to second floor. Hallways were not air conditioned. Room was ok

I booked it because the post said it had a pool onsite. The pool is actually at the community centre and had very limited hours. Same goes for the gym. I went with my dog and the pet friendly room definitely had a smell to it. It's in a not so great part of fort st john so I was nervous walking my dog at night as a female.

Booked last minute after the highway closed. Staff was accommodating and very friendly, I was a bit blunt as I'd been driving 17 hours at that point but that didn't phase them at all. Good accommodations and facilities and breakfast is available in hotel, the coffee kind of sucked but hey what can you do. The biggest plus; no issues with my dog and a very pet friendly staff. 10/10 for that alone. I would definitely stay here again!

The staff were very accommodating, including cleaning my room outside of normal cleaning hours, because I was on night shift. They also have free use coupons for various business in town including the local pool and gym. On top of it all the staff were extremely friendly.

Older building, good cleanliness, excellent A/C, great staff. The entire building smelled faintly of cigarettes but that can’t be helped given how old the building itself is.

I don’t know where to start. Hair everywhere, bugs in the bed, hair in the bed, dirty sheets with stains, absolutely gross carpet with pet hair all over it. Sticky ring marks all over the counter and table, lamp with no plug, broken mirror, broken hairdryer, broken hangers, thick layer of grime on the heating system, my room was in the basement. The actual basement. Switched rooms and the next one was worse.

Absolutely disgusting property. The parking lot and area around the hotel was littered with garbage and there was drug use items. The room was to be non smoking but smelled so strong of smoke, we were not feeling well the next day due to this. The front desk staff was great, but other than that this will be a place I would never recommend. Really should have asked for money back due to everything.

We actually didn’t end up staying. Forest fires threatened to close down the road to our next location. The front desk manager (possibly owner) helped us make the determination to go ahead and drive to our next location while conditions were still relatively safe and allowed us to cancel our room due to the circumstances. Very friendly staff. Very clean hotel!

I visited FSJ recently with my team and we stayed at Coast. It was an amazing experience overall. Staff was very courteous, rooms were clean and comfortable but the best part had to be breakfast. They had a wide selection of items and the staff followed all protocols to ensure hygiene and food safety. On one of my team member’s request the manager even arranged for a super early 6:00 AM takeout breakfast. Never expected such a polite gesture. I would recommend everyone to visit this hotel when you’re in FSJ. 10/10 experience!

Everything stood out. From the cleanliness of the room to how friendly n warming the staff was. The only thing that was a bit sad was that when I went to have breakfast a few times the food wasn't really hot. It was either warm or almost cold. Still was a good breakfast either way though. Oh n also had one night where I was woken up by others screaming n talking super loud in the hallway by my room. Other than that it's an excellent place to stay. I'd definitely stay there again
