After reading some reviews from this page, I was a little apprehensive about the state of the room. We arrived in the afternoon and were pleasantly surprised to see a nice clean, renovated older hotel. Knowing that this is a heritage building, it was not a rundown, old feel. It felt like well kept antiques. The food was great, the... More

My wife and daughter were visiting Barkerville as part of a multi-day school field trip. I decided to bring our young son up and join them. The Hub Motel was full so I decided to take a room at the Wells Hotel for the night. The room rate seemed a little high considering the size and lack of amenities but... More

My wife and I stayed at the Wells Hotel after our week-long canoe trip on Bowron Lakes. We had stayed at Hubs Motel a week earlier and were thrilled with our experience, but Hubs Motel was full when we returned, so we had to stay at the Wells Hotel. The staff was friendly, but rushed. The room was disappointing: No... More

We stayed at the Wells Hotel for 3 night while we were exploring Barkerville. We were not disappointed! The breakfast bufffet itself was absolutely AMAZING...I've never had a continental breakfast that good! We're taking lots of cereal, pancakes, french toast, eggs, bacon, ham, fruit, muffins, milk, tea, coffee, and juices. The room was pretty small, but the beds were very... More

Sounds like there was some issues with the last cafe operators but there certainly can be no complaints now. I eat there whenever I am in town. Good food, reasonable prices and clean atmosphere. Terry and Brenda told me they just took over in October.

Hotel room was pleasant, but very very small. Bed wasnt really big enough, however, we were warned by the receptionist about this beforehand. The hotel itself is lovelyl, but the food in the evening was pretty dreadful, so would recomment findind somewhere else to eat.

the front of house was excellent both on the phone whilst booking and on arrival. The room, apparantly one of the best was small, the furtniture was poor and the water ran cold for the second shower after spluttering through eventually for the first shower. The food was disgusting. We sent back one poached salmon meal and 30 minutes later... More
