The hotel is just 2 blocks from the ferry, right in the heart of Friday Harbor. My fiance and i loved the style and decor of this place-reminded us a litte of the W without the pretentiousness. We were staying in their European style sleeping rooms which have shared bathrooms (4 of these rooms share 2 bathrooms-but we never had... more

The Bird Rock Hotel has been a real treat. They've managed to blend the character of a historic building with the tasteful, sleek design of modern style into charm & warmth. The staff have been friendly, informative and helpful. Fresh baked cookies in the afternoon with a glass of strawberry lemonade, continental breakfast with fruit and scones in the morning... more

We rented the "Patos" room for one night; it turned out to be the best laid-out and lighted of the second floor "simple" rooms with shared bath. There were only eight rooms sharing two bathrooms, so traffic was not a problem. We enjoyed the courtyard and the bikes to use around town, the balcony with comfy, cushy chairs and beautiful... more

They had a great promotion that gave you Tuesday night free if you stayed Monday or Wednesday. My trip was Mon-Tues. so it worked great. People were very friendly and helpful. Shaw room was just right for one person. Very clean and neat. I noticed in other reviews that the street noise was bothersome - I did not have that... more

We had the opportunity to spend a weekend at the Bird Rock Hotel. We were impressed by the hospitality of the hotel staff, the comfort of the room and the terrific view. We were traveling by bike and made this our base for a weekend of exploring the island. The hotel was a great place to come back to, to... more

Incredible. Our only complaint was that our remote was not working - so we were upgraded to a much nicer room! Please support this hotel - you won't regret it. more

This hotel is in a great location in the heart of Friday Harbor. It has been recently refurbished so has a good quality of fixtures and fittings. We stayed in two of the "European" style rooms which were not ensuite. The rooms were tiny, but lovely and cozy. The shared bathrooms were great, and were always available when we needed... more

We selected this hotel based on its great website which implied a refined, gracious, modern, upscale, secluded place. What we found was an overall average place, with some good points and many significant drawbacks. The hotel is well situated for walking around the town, and the room (ground floor suite with private patio) was clean and decent size with modern... more

When we booked the Bird Rock, we had NO idea what to expect. We stayed in the Queen room with Shared Bathroom. This is NOT dorm style living. The rooms are small, but VERY clean! So is the bathroom. You get a wonderful basket of shower goodies and robes gently folded on the bed. Flat screen tvs. Free rental bikes.... more

I was a little nervous when I booked this hotel because there wasn't a lot of information on the website or many reviews to look at. After I booked the hotel, they sent me disclaimers that made me nervous about problems parking and lots of noise. I wish I had known that before I booked it. Anyway, we went preparing... more
