Beautiful rooms and views! The staff was lovely, making check in and the stay even better.
Jayden, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Overall good accommodation for money. Friendly staff and an amazing location. Only thing I’d say is that the walls are far too thin and it was quite loud.
James, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Adrian, I think that was her name, checked us in and was very helpful and pleasant and efficient. She was very attentive.
Tanya, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very convenient for our overnight in Tofino. Comfortable beds and coffee bar in lobby with light breakfast selection. Short walk takes you to many restaurants and down to pier to see stunning sunsets.

Great location
Randy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

I really enjoyed the quirky and thoughtful decor throughout the building. The staff greet you with a complimentary cocktail and the adjoining restaurant serves delicious food with a fun and young vibe. Our room door knob needs replacing and I would have loved a coffee machine and supplies provided.
Jay, 3-night trip

Ucluet would be where we stay in future
Eric, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Came for my daughter’s destination wedding. Location was very nice. The room view was beautiful.
kris, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

It was fine. Room was nice and clean but no fridge (but it did have a cooler and we could get free ice at the liquor store downstairs), no AC, wifi was terrible (we couldn't connect and staff had no idea how to fux it), tv was pathetically small and of poor quality. While the hotel focusses on style, it lacks significantly on substance, especially considering how expensive it is during high season. Breakfast in the lobby cafe was fantastic.
Shawn, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Convenient + centrally-located, very walkable area. Lobby is open + spacious. But in 2 weeks of travel, room was the smallest with the fewest amenities + the highest price. No chair to sit on, no table or desk to place items on, no fridge. Room for 1 suitcase; cant imagine how 2 people could actually share the space.
Keith, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Love the new look and area
Sunny, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Nice spot. Hotel is average, rooms are ok however not a place I’d stay again, it’s very basic with noisy rooms. Staff were incredible. Location in town is great. I’d stay in one of the upscale resorts just outside of the town next time. Adriana’s across the street is a must! Excellent pizza!
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very clean, modernized facilities!
WENYI, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Noisy room with thin walls. Staff playing music at 8am and you can hear the bass. Also 5pm checkin is a joke
Michael, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Nice modern refurbished hotel. Will not stay here again due to noise from Bierhaus in the courtyard, then kitchen noises until an hour after closing. No elevator.
Brian, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent customer service at this hotel. We appreciated being able to check-in early.
Sara, 1-night trip

Just a unique and outstanding property all around. Very friendly and helpful staff and lovely design. A real find! Heartily recommend.
Dawn, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property is in the middle of downtown tofino. With a lot of food options near me. Maq Hotel has one of the most amazing staff i have ever met. Excellent hospitality. I asked for an early check-in and they managed to get the room ready for us in less than 10mins. The hotel also offers free parking to it's guests and has their own restaurant, pub and cafe.
