Qualicum Beach Inn is beautiful! The decor is modern but comfy. Cozy, quality cotton bedding made for slow mornings viewing the sea. The pool area is immaculate and the hot tube and sauna rejuvenating. The friendly, accomodating staff put icing on the cake!
love this place so much!!! came for valentine’s day and it was lovely. the view was amazing, the only thing that sucked was the parking situation. the parking spots are too small for our truck and not enough spots but i understand as there isn’t really enough space for more parking spots around the hotel but otherwise everything was perfect definitely will be coming back one day!
This was our second time staying at the QBI, and it was beyond wonderful! The staff make you feel like you've known them for years! The restaurant had live music, which was a bonus, but also a great musician! The food and drinks are everything and never disappoint. The cleanliness of the hotel, rooms and facilities isn't comparable to any other hotel we have stayed at. I can't find the words to describe the impeccable service we experienced there once again.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We ate there too and the food was wonderful and the staff very attentive. Rooms are large and spacious and right out front is a nice beach exposure for walking. We'll be back!
My husband and I loved Qualicum Beach and loved our stay at Qualicum Beach Inn. When we walked into the lobby with our luggage, two employees came running over to us and took our luggage to the second floor. Was such great hospitality service. Our room was lovely, had a nice sitting area with comfy chairs by the window that had a nice view of the ocean. Will definitely stay here again when we’re in town. Thank you for a lovely stay!
This was a 5-star experience across the board. From the holiday decorations to the cleanliness, to the food and to the service. But most importantly, it was the staff who were working on the holidays, with smiles on their faces, meeting and exceeding our expectations at every turn. Special thanks to Carlton the Doorman who worked Christmas Eve and Christmas night and made our stay so memorable. Thank you, Qualicum Beach Inn and Cafe! We will be back!
This place is terrific and the staff make it delightful! We booked a room to celebrate my husbands Birthday and have dinner with our family. The room was great - and had a lovely tub unlike the showers most places now provide - with actual soap and little bottles of shampoo and lotion - again - so much better than bottles affixed to the walls in many hotels. Dinner was Perfect! Thank you - we'll be back!
My husband I and I recently stayed for 6 days, attending to a death in the family. Upon checking in, very tired and emotionally spent, the woman at the reception, Zoe, greeted us with such warmth and kindness that we immediately felt at home. For the rest of our stay, both she and the other reception staff were helpful, friendly and warm. Thank you as this made a hard time a little easier and it was nice to come back at the end of long days to such lovely people.
