This hotel was an absolute treat. It was beautiful, comfy, clean, and very relaxing. The bay view suite was perfect and provided us with a beautiful view of the water and we even got to see a giant Sea Lion right outside our room! This place also provided free EV charging for our car, which I was not expecting. I definitely would stay here again.

This was our second stay here. We like the rooms with the harbor view. There is something special about waking up, opening the curtain, and being blessed with the sight of sailing masts and boats, sea life and views of the mountains in the distance. They do a very good job here with their staff. Their restaurant is high-end with an interesting menu. We’ll be back.

This is such a beautiful hotel with an absolutely wonderful staff. It has an intriguing art collection that invites exploring. The outside walk along the water is lovely. We used it for a boat trip in the San Juans and will be back in the spring to see the tulips in Skagit Valley. The nearby town of Fairhaven had some very lovely shops too. Staying here adds to the pleasure of a trip

Hotel Bellweather is an absolute gem in every way. It was not only impeccably clean, but beautifully furnished and decorated . The food was excellent. The setting superb. What pulled all of this together was an entire staff of smiling knowledgeable people who were a pleasure to interact with. I'm already booked for another trip back to see the tulips and will now think of The Bellweather as my go to place whenever I'd like to come back to the area. Hats off to the owners for such a wonderful job here!!!

We were warmly welcomed by an extremely friendly and helpful staff. The first room offered was totally unsuitable - more like a basement suite than a resort hotel room (116). The next room unfortunately had a gas smell and was therefore unsuitable. However the hotel gave us a third room on the second floor overlooking the bay which was delightful. Sometimes disturbed by people walking along the waterfront but not really a bother. Resteaurant was OK but as everywhere in the Staes today - too expensive.
