The View Hotel

Our first stay at The View’s Inn was very good. We stayed in a ground-floor room with a kitchenette, which was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Although the price was quite high at $289, the overall experience that time made it feel worthwhile. Unfortunately, our second stay didn’t live up to the same standard. The upstairs room we were given had a strong odor, was dark and dingy, and felt damp. Noise from guests partying inside and outside the building made for a restless night. We were not offered another room, and because the booking was non-refundable, we had no alternative. Another point worth mentioning is that the hotel does not offer breakfast, only coffee and a few other beverages for guests. While this isn’t a dealbreaker, it would have been nice to have a basic breakfast option, especially for the price. We also asked about government or corporate rates, and were told, “We just don’t,” which was disappointing, especially for travelers on work-related stays. That said, there are positives. The secure parking lot was appreciated, especially for those traveling with tools or equipment. And most importantly, the staff and room cleaners were kind, professional, and helpful throughout — they truly deserve 10 stars for their service. To the owners: respectfully, reasonable prices should be offered or at least have government discounts and breakfast for the price you are charging. Kind Regards, Mrs..& Mr. McDavid

Very comfortable and would stay again there staff was very accommodating and kind 😊

I had frozen meat that needed a freezer. Staff helped with that and were wonderful.

The hotel had nice clean, modern looking rooms. The bed was very comfortable. Enjoyed our night at the View.

Bathroom could be cleaner

I had a nice experience here. Third floor has wonderful views of Stuart Lake. Staff are outstanding and so helpful. King's cafe next to the hotel has a nice breakfast menu, and St. James Restaurant has decent but expensive Chinese cuisine; it closes earlier than you might think. There is a Subway Cafe a few minutes walk from the hotel, and there is a Save On grocery store a little past the Subway. I grew up in Fort St. James; The View is definitely not the old Fort St. James Hotel.
