My stay at the Alert Lodge was like home from home - Nina and Chris were very friendly, very informative and I was made to feel like one of the family. More

I spent 3 nights at the Alert Bay Lodge. Chris, the manager, was very outgoing, kind friendly and helpful. My room and adjacent bathroom were fine. The lodge, which is what one would imagine a most attractive rustic lodge to be, has a great common area, part of which overlooks the ocean and there is always the lingering agreeable smell... More

This is a quirky place, re-hashed from a small church that was originally built from a kit. The common areas are from the church, but the rest seems to have been added on. The owners live elsewhere, and the place is manged onsite by a live-in manager. The manager who is there right now is very nice and helpful, but... More

Didn't quite know what to expect from this place but was thoroughly surprised and happy with our stay. Getting the ferry across to this little island was lovely and it was easy to find. It has such a sense of character - being an old church - and the common area was lovely. It has a dining area, sitting area... More

We booked for 3 nights but I would have stayed longer. The building itself has a very comfortable feel to it - 1961 Panabode. Room #1 is nicely updated and clean. From our window we could see and hear the bald eagles each day. Cathy the manager made us feel right at home and has a lot of good information... More

After staying two weeks in Vancouver and Whistler, my husband, my 3-years-old child and I finally found a very friendly enviroment in Alert Bay Lodge. The managers, Marvin and Kathleen, are lovely people that made us feel as we were at home all time. I could have the best home-made breakfast of Canada, specially the coffee and hand made bread....

When life gets rough and all appears to be stress then this is exactly the place to be. The calming influence of the Lodge and it's managers, the effervescent Kathie and quiet, gentle Marv just makes things better. The views from the Lodge are serene, the peace eminating from the island is second to none. A wonderful, wonderful holiday. Thank... More

My friend Yoshi and I decided to take a trip to the northern end of Vancouver Island and spend a few days in Alert Bay. I had researched different accommodations. This one stood out originally because of the price. I wasn't expecting such an experience for $55 plus tax per night for a small room. The room I was in... More

My wife and I stayed at the Lodge for two nights in late April 2009. It was a very warm, friendly, comfortable kind of place, full of character. Everything was well organized and went off without a hitch. Our hosts were very hospitable and we thoroughly enjoyed their company. We will definitely stay there again and would have no trouble...
