Had a great two-night stay at The Francis Boutique Inn in Ucluelet! The room was very clean and the bed was really comfortable. The drive to Tofino was scenic and relaxing. We also found it super convenient to have an EV charging station right on the property’s parking lot — a nice bonus for travellers with electric cars!

My room was large and nicely decorated. It had a small kitchen with everything you need for a short stay. The bed was very comfortable. The hotel was full while I was there and I never heard anyone else - it's very quiet. I would highly recommend the Francis Boutique Hotel!

Property is well-located for walking to most of the town restaurants, bars and co-op grocery store. The room was well-appointed.
Particularly liked the property’s sauna and hot tub set-up.

Sorry, I didn’t check my email before arriving at the Francis Boutique Hotel. We got there and called the property manager for access to our suite. Karina was very helpful in directing us to our suite and guiding us through the self checking. She even helped to take our baggage to our suite.
We walked into the suite and were blown away! So beautiful and welcoming. Everything was there for our three nights stay, enough toiletries and bath supplies.
This is a perfect place for young and old couples. I would highly recommend the Francis Boutique Hotel!

This is a lovely property, both inside our suite and outside in the grounds. Our suite was very tastefully decorated, and fully furnished for an extended stay with kitchen items, robes, etc. We loved our stay here!

What a beautiful getaway! We were greeted by a lovely hostess who made sure we would be comfortable. The room, hot tub and sauna were perfect after a day of hiking, whale watching and of course the beach!

All updated inside and well suited to the environment of Ukee. Garden room is around back which feels more private. Hot tub was very enjoyable after days hiking and exploring beaches.

This is our new favourite spot to stay when we head to the coast. Loved the sauna and the little kitchen. The big TV and Netflix beats hotel cable any day. Quick walk to the grocery store and breakfast and the hikes on the coast from big beach on are like nothing we’ve seen on the island….over 20 whales spotted Saturday alone. Thanks

We really had no idea what to expect...came around the back of the hotel to check in and WOW...a little oasis. Beautiful shady space with chairs to lounge in and take in the scenery or a hot tub and sauna.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return
