Love everything about this hotel/restaurant. The staff is great, the food is great, the views are amazing. Dog friendly and Whiffin spit next door to walk whenever you want. We did a midnight walk and it was amazing stargazing.

We were delighted to see that Sooke Harbour House had reopened. The current owners are working very hard to provide top service to their clientel. The location is superb, nice walking, beautiful scenery and comfortable accommodation. Most importantly all the staff are friendly and welcoming. We look forward to enjoying another stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.

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

Mark

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
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.

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.

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.
