Good location for those who need to join blue caves or glacier tours and prefer short travel time. Enjoyed the breakfast with a variety of food selections, sauna and hot tub. And the views from the Ocean room are gorgeous which able to see sunrise and northern lights. Although there was a slight odor due to the dryness of the toilet exhaust pipe, overall it was a comfortable stay.

I have stayed at this hotel twice now and each time it has been a great place to stay. It is close to the Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach just off Highway 1 so really easy to get to. The breakfast was also very good. Only downer was the hot tubs which weren't working at the time of the visit.

The location was great for tours in glacier Lagoon. The property was very clean, kind staff, and spa area was nice. There hotel is in a remote area so the only choice for food is at the hotel restaurant- which was very good. Our shower could have been hotter but that would be our only downside.
