Well done reno of a historic building. Kelly has worked hard to make it into a uniquely interesting boutique hotel, adding antiques and historic artifacts and art from the local area. The breakfasts, included in the price, are all house made, including the yummy Hollandaise sauce and house made biscuits. The room rates remain affordable. The now closed paper mill does subtract from the otherwise pristine views of the area including the Straight of Georgia. There is an absence of restaurants and cafes in the Old Town but the main part of Powell River is only a 5 minute drive away.

Charming Inn - Modern Comfort

Very charming old inn located in historic part of Powell River, fitted out with artifacts from a century ago. But with modern comfort; the best shower we’ve used. Owner and staff very friendly and accommodating. Disappointed that the cafe was not open for breakfast.
