This is a 100 year old hotel in the village of Alert Bay. Our room had a small balcony with a great view. The breakfast included bread, fruit and yogurt. The dining room downstairs had a limited menu. Don’t pay any attention to the one posted online. Prices, of course were higher , but the food was good.

Liked: Cleanliness
It's an old inn and rustic which is cool but it is missing something. Staff is adequate but there was little interaction or interest in the guests. Aside from one cheery table server the owner and wife were lackluster, and we had the impression they didn't really want to be there. The restaurant menu needs an update with fresh salads and fresh food. Too much food comes from frozen like French fries, halibut even the beef and broccoli were from the freezer. Fries accompany most food with no other choices, i.e. a salad. Sticky menus and stained aprons are not impressive. The continental breakfast could use more variety and don't put out brown bananas. The rooms are clean but the lazy-boy chair in my room looked old and stained. Having a balcony was great and overall, everything was okay but too expensive for what you got.

Sans plus

Un peu bancale dans les chambres l'hotel n'est pas bien insonorisé, pour autant il est très calme donc pas de soucis. Le gril restaurant est fermé les dimanches et lundis et c'est indiqué nulle part, ni sur Google ni sur le site internet de l'hotel. C'est vraiment dommageable car il n'y a pas beaucoup de possibilites de dîner a cette époque. Les petits dejeuners sont corrects sans plus. Ce ne sera pasmon meilleur souvenir en Colombie Britanique

Thank you to Will, for upgrading us to an ocean view room, where we could sit on the deck and admire the stunning ocean view. The complementary breakfast was substantial, again with fantastic views. Dinner in the restaurant was convenient and delicious. We highly recommend the Nimkish Hotel

Loved this place! Heritage property. Owners on site. During a power outage the hotel was the only business on the island to have a generator. No lights upstairs but candles were provided. Generator ran the kitchen and the restaurant was buzzing. The owners made the adventure fun!!! I’d stay again and hope for a power outage!
