“Decent place for a decent (Tofino) price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 10, 2012

We decided to stay in a hotel at the last minute and booked into the Tofino Motel hours before we left home. It was $100 less than most of the other places to stay in touristy Tofino and, for the money, it was a good value.
There is a nice harbour view from all the rooms. The rooms are not as big as they come but they are clean.
The noise between rooms is minimal, although you can hear toilets flush and showers running, but that's not really a big deal to us. Overall it was quiet over the two nights we stayed there.
We had a pet-friendly room, which worked out well with our puppy, who did her business in the green space that makes up the back of the motel.
The clerks were very knowledgeable about the area with good info. on places to eat, etc.
I would recommend the Tofino Motel for anyone who doesn't need all the amenities in the world and doesn't want to spend $250 per night to stay at a Best Western type hotel.

“Amazing harbour view”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 29, 2012

This motel is superbly placed, and every room has a magnificent harbour view. It is in the middle of Tofino, is very clean. Not the cheapest place, but excellent value. Very quiet night. The staff are very helpful in every way. The rooms nearest the harbour have the best view, but all are very good.

“Great view, reasonable price, good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 24, 2012

The view from our balcony was like a postcard. We had driven up to this motel and were leery but the clerk said to see the room first. It was great. Large with 2 double beds and good TV, good WiFi, good coffee maker, and a large very clean bathroom. Beach towels are available, but it was 17 C and lightly raining: a relief from our hot summer at home. We needed to do laundry and the Tofino laundromat was no more than a 5 minute walk away. All locations in the village are within walking distance. The clerk gave us excellent recommendations of where to eat and where to book whale watching. We saw 3 types of whales. We would definately return to this motel.

“A Welcome Surprise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 23, 2012

We rented the family suite and found it more than adequate for our family (2 teens.) The suite has a European feel, extremely clean and the kitchen, while tiny, was just perfect! The view from either balcony (it wraps around the suite) was fantastic and the staff were extremely accommodating and helpful. The location is perfect! You are right in Tofino and can walk easily to all the shops and services. Honestly, we were completely surprised by how fantastic this place was -- definitely not your average motel!

“Unbelievable harbour view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 3, 2012

Have stayed here many times and still love the view. Rooms clean and adequate, nice balcony view over harbour. The rate is high compared to other locations but then it is a high tourist spot and demand allows the price called for.One can watch harbour planes and boats leaving the harbour. The motel is just off the main Tofino street so there is traffic noise.

Room Tip: All rooms have a harbour view from the balcony on the bedroom end. In the evening it is cool and ext...
