This is a classic B&B in a good location in Port Alberni. The rooms are inside the house and shared with the host couple who live there. There are 2 rooms with a shared bathroom on the second floor and a suite above that with an included bathroom.
The hosts are very nice and attentive, and the house is welcoming and inviting. Bill, your host, will take your suitcases up the stairs which is a big help. The meals are tasty and freshly prepared. The hosts are strict about check-in time so don’t show up before 5 PM.

The location was very nice, out in the country. We listened to crickets all night instead of cars and sirens and it was dark, no streetlights! The suite was well appointed with comfortable seating and a TV. Hostess had already prepared our coffee for morning, all we had to do was turn it on. There was a nice assortment of goodies in the fridge for breakfast/snacking.

Fantastic buffet breakfast, super friendly hosts. Among other things, they recommended a nearby place to see salmon spawning with black bears attempting to catch them. Our favorite stay of our Vancouver Island trip. We weren't bothered by road noise, unlike some other reviews. We only wish we'd stayed more than one night

We stayed in Port Alberni as a stopover on our short vacation to the coast; accordingly, it is difficult to assess/review the town. I met one lovely couple while banking and was greatly impressed by their friendliness and willingness to help a total stranger.

Port Alberni is relatively easy to get around.
Port Alberni is relatively easy to get around. Lovely hiking spots and parks. Great sports areas. On the beautiful ocean inlet, with fabulous views. A variety of shops and restaurants. The gateway to the wild west coast. First Nations cultural experiences available.
I would not forget my cell phone charger so that getting around might be even easier with GPS.
My favourite was going on a dog walk with my hosts along a lovely wild path by a stream with waterfall and a beautiful kingfisher.

Staff smoke in the lobby
Staff smoke in the lobby
They bring their children to work and children are constantly pulling the fire alarms
Rude service some staff were nice though
Maid did not ever clean the rooms
No more breakfast
Broken vending machines
Not safe for children
Fire hazard as there’s no cover on fire place
And the laundry shoot door is always open a child could fall through that
Over priced for what they provide
Not impressed and the location is filled with drug addicts and homeless people
Maids steal your medication too
Poor service all on all

We enjoyed the activities at the Harbour Quay.
We enjoyed the activities at the Harbour Quay. Farmer's market, evening music and evening strolls along the water while enjoying small shop products. Great restaurants and cafes to choose from. Our favourites: Boomerang Cafe and Bare Bones (platter for two) . Bamfield trip by boat. Sproat lake swimming. Stamp River Provincial park where we saw the salmon going up the waterfalls and bears coming around. ( we learned from a native family at the river to clap loudly, everyone clapping with whatever you had at hand, to get the big black bear approaching to run away). We found people were very friendly and would always greet you. Many cafes and places we did not have time to go to are in our calendar for next time around. Beware restaurants close early in Port Alberni so check closing times before heading out to eat. Overall, great memories of Port Alberni.

Starboard Grill was excellent meal on the docks one night and Twin City Pub had excellent pizza and a variety of local beers.
Used Port Alberni as a jumping off location to visit Tofino/Uceulet and Bamfield - served us well!

We did a few local hikes like the Hole in the Wall and Cathedral Grove. Our hosts recommended another one we did in the morning called Little Qualicum Park where they had views of the upper and lower falls. We visited a brewery and took in the beautiful scenery. Impressed with the stores they had, didn’t know Port Alberni was so big! Would definitely recommend travellers check out this nice place on the island!

We had a lovely stay. Host was really nice! Stayed in the upper room. It's really big and has everything you need, including a nice couch. Also a big balcony. Bed was comfy as well. Nice that you can grab breakfast each morning and eat it with a beautiful view. The location is perfect: remote, with hummingbirds and other birds flying around. A 10 minute drive to the town center of Port Alberni, were we ate good sushi at Alberni sushi.
Bill and Millie were amazing hosts. They made our stay in Port Alberni perfect. The room was comfy and a accommodating. They had amazing recommendations of things to do in the area as well. Bill cooked us a fantastic breakfast in the morning before we checked out. It was nice meeting them and chatting. We would stay here again and would definitely recommend to other travellers.
The staff at the Stamps Cafe were fantastic - efficient and pleasant! Always got the orders right, even though one day only one server was looking after the whole restaurant, plus answering the phone and doing the cash register. Kudos to her - don’t know her name, but she was the grey haired lady.
All the breakfasts were cooked perfectly too and were yummy.
The owners of BC Cabins were incredibly responsive, flexible and understanding. Due to matters out of our control - extended highway closure - we were unable to arrive on our booked night of accommodation.
The owners worked with us to find a resolution. We will definitely be reaching out to them when we’re back in Port Alberni. Highly recommend!
The worst place to stay. When we came to the hotel, we made a mistake on booking and in stead of trying to help to solve the problem, the owner was so angry and super mad. The solution was from her side to charge 7 months baby and 3.5 years old boy 100$ extra per night for the same room which we booked. There were no changes just extra charges.
Please take this off booking.com; it is no longer an operational hotel. We showed up at our confirmed booking time, only to be told that the Port Hotel was no longer in business. We had a very difficult time scrambling to find somewhere else to stay.
Great location. Great restaurant. The staff merry all my needs quickly and helpfully. The room was very clean, large, and had good bedding. Parking was convenient. I felt comfortable and safe with my children there.
Char was very communicative leading up to the stay! It's pretty cute and pretty comfortable. If you're on Port Alberni for some reason, would recommend staying here
