Great location and very close to shopping, food, seawall/promenade. Facilities are clean and you have enough what you need for a comfortable trip to the Sunshine Coast. Parking facilities and restaurant onsite.

Not really the hotel’s fault in any way: the exterior walls and windows are very thin and you can hear everything from the outside. On our first night, there was a family (staying a couple doors down from our room) fighting, yelling, and arguing outside from 2300 to 0230 in a seemingly drunken state. We could hear everything! The office is closed after hours, but we didn’t know there was an after-hours phone number. But like I said, we still enjoyed our stay, just unfortunate some people are highly inconsiderate of others. Still will be staying at the Sechelt Inn in the future.

The rooms were very clean and the beds were super comfy. New owners are in the process of renovating so our bathroom was brand new whereas the rest needs some TLC. Right on the ocean so took walks on several occasions. Within walking distance of most stores and restaurants. I would stay here again

No continental breakfast which would have been nice.

Upon arrival, the room we had been assigned was not done, even if we arrived past the arrival time. The front staff worked fast to get us another room, way better than the one we had reserved and paid for. The hotel is fantastic, on the walk path by the ocean. It is really easy to access the beach, shops on foot.

Typical 2storey motel setup but very clean and had refrigerator and coffee maker plus other useful items The air conditioner worked and the TV was easy to work. The front desk person was helpful in recommending good places to eat

The dining room was not available the days I was there but this business has recently changed hands and is still in process.

The location is always amazing, one of the main reasons I stay other than I've been staying plus my family over the years have stayed here. It's covienent to a grocery stores and a drug store. It's always a reliable place to stay. It's always clean, the staff is helpful.

The room I thought for the price would be a little better as it just seemed like a very cold box. slightly disappointed, but it won't effect me coming back. The restaraunt was disappointing, they used to have a great restaraunt with the one of the best steaks I've ever had. Now there isn't even an option for a kids meal than an adults size fish and chips or just French fries.

I have stayed at the Driftwood in the past. At the time, The room was a very basic hotel type room (nothing fancy but everything you need). THIS TIME however, I booked a room with the ocean view, and that was absolutely amazing. I really enjoyed the darkness in the room at night and was able to have a really nice, quiet, sleep, and then wake up to the gentle crashing of the ocean. It was nice to have a balcony and to be able to sit out there in the mornings with my coffee. The seawall is right there and super convenient which is lovely!!! Every single one of the staff members at the front desk and housecleaning were all absolutely lovely. Everybody was super helpful and took the time to help me answer questions and be super accommodating to some of my needs and requests. I like it so much I’m even thinking about coming back… Only a week later.

For me, it was a bit pricey for one person for three nights, but certainly worth it to be able to recharge

The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, the location is next to the beach in Trail Bay. Shopping and amenities are nearby.

Hairs were found in the bathroom. The coffee maker still had coffee in it. (We have the same issues with housekeeping every time we go, but we still love the property.)

The Inn is in a very good location and has a very spacious restaurant as well, however the breakfast menu is quite limited. It is conveniently located for lovely walkways along the beach and coastline as well as all of the facilities in town. The staff were very friendly and pleasant and the room was spotlessly clean with nice little extras and tastefully decorated. The bed and pillow were very comfortable. Wifi was good.

Even though it was into lovely warm May weather, many places were still closed up and down the Sechelt peninsula and it was well into the afternoon before my husband could even get a cup of coffee anywhere. It seems places do not open up until the May 24th long weekend. The Inn itself is rather old and dated but they have done a splendid job with all of the niceties.

The room we had was a good size, our friends a few doors down had a smaller room. Being close to Davis Bay was lovely, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The price was reasonable.

We found hair on the bathroom floor near a rolled up bathmat by the toilet when we arrived. Also, the room door was very hard to open from the outside. The water in Sechelt tastes terrible, would recommend bottled or filtered water.
