Reviews of The View Hotel 4 stars

Lovely view. Clean

Housekeeping not every day Breakfast options in the town very limited

A comfortable, clean hotel with an exceptional view. It was more than we expected considering the size of the town. We'd definitely stay there again!

The location of the hotel was perfect for our needs. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go. The customer lounge was perfect for early mornings so I didn't disturb my travelling companions. The bathroom was huge and the rooms was very spacious.

There could have been a couple of shelves in the bathroom so I could put my clothes on something besides the floor after I used the shower.

Room was large and clean. It was very quiet.

Wish the restaurant was open. There is limited places to have breakfast in Fort St. James.

The bathroom was not all-inclusive—they did not try to put everything in bathroom, therefore one could use the toilet or the shower while another could put on make-up or shave without interfering with the other person’s activity. The bath/shower worked well & everything was very clean.

There wasn’t any restaurant or breakfast availability. There also isn’t a restaurant open for morning in the whole community!

View from window of lake

Water smelt off and noise from elevator

All the staff were super accessible (even at 4 a.m.!), knowledgeable, and friendly. My room on the 3rd Floor was extremely clean and inviting (LOVED the bed!). And I had the best view as well. This hotel is not deceptive in its marketing, like many others can be. "The View" REALLY is RIGHT at the lake's edge. Sunrises and sunsets - gorgeous. And complete silence, except for the tranquil sounds of birds chirping. :) [Attached pics are of my actual view from my room on the 3rd Floor, as well as one of a picnic bench right at the hotel to enjoy.] This hotel is also pet-friendly. I didn't bring along a Furry Friend, but it was a pleasure seeing many dogs that have a designated floor (I believe some rooms on the 2nd floor). If you're a smoker, there are great designated spots outside (three of them, I believe), two of which had amazing views and one that was sheltered in the event it rained, etc. All kept clean, too. You don't even have to be a smoker to enjoy these designated picnic benches... you can just enjoy the view and listen to the birds!

No complaints whatsoever. Which I find funny, as I'm usually the first one to point out flaws. LOL

Not much to look at on the outside, but our room was outstanding. Very clean, very comfortable.

Just mainly a little TLC on the exterior.

Good location.

Didn't see any breakfast

It was convenient for a small town

I had a large piece of HVAC equipment blocking my view

It's not much to look at from the outside but the rooms were newly renovated and very comfortable. The bed was first class. The clientele were workers rather than travellers so it was quiet. We had a very comfortable stay.

It would have been nice to have some kind of a breakfast option as Ft. St. James is restaurant challenged, but there was a little fridge for our fruit and yogurt, so no worries.

Very friendly and helpful personnel.

We loved the view of the lake. The hotel looked recently renovated. The restaurant on the main floor should open within a couple of weeks.
