“Amazing Place - you have to go there!”

The Wickaninnish Inn & Pointe Restaurant

May 1, 2008

This has got to be the best hotel I have been to. We had an amazing view from our three massive windows - including a view from our double soaker tub!! We were on honeymoon and this really was the perfect place for that. The staff were so helpful and while we were at dinner each night (eat in The Pointe - some of the best food I have ever tasted) staff went to our room and arranged our robes in heart shapes on the bed and put some music on for us to return to - sweet touch! The open fire in the room gave it such a nice feel. The Wick Inn ia definately expensive (although not by UK standards for that level of hotel) but it is really worth it. Go there and enjoy the luxury!

“over priced”

The Wickaninnish Inn & Pointe Restaurant

3 of 5 stars

1/3 found this review helpful

Six of us stayed at the Wik for 2 nights. We asked to have the best rooms in the place - when we got there I noticed one of the pictures in a brochure - a much better room than we had. We were all on the third floor - perhaps the best rooms are the corner suites. I did not ask - At the restaurant we had asked for a window table 3 months in advance but were told some had booked 18 months in advance. Our reservation was for 7:30 and in my opinion they gave the window tables to those that came at 6 or 6:30. Why would they hold a window table for an hour or so? Never the less my husband ordered the tastings menu with the wine included. Six half glasses and very small portions of food. The rest of us had soup, salad and entree's. The service was so slow we finally got our main course at 10:30!! The cost of our dinner - just my husband and myself was $400.00 - I am sorry but this was way over priced for me. The next night we went into town to a lovely restaurant and had a bottle of wine with our dinners and it was only $150.00 - the food was way better too.

It was all I was looking for from a 2 days in Tofino.
Great people, amazing place and rooms in a wonderful landscape.

I do advise it.

Ciao

“Perfection...”

The Wickaninnish Inn & Pointe Restaurant

Feb 25, 2008
1/3 found this review helpful

Total Perfection... We were greeted at the floatplane dock by Kirby, greeted by Catherine at the reception desk, shown to the Canopy Suite- which is worth every penny- drank the complimentary Champagne that was on ice- wandered down to the bar for cocktails to go... and had an amazing stroll down one of the most incredible stretches of sand I've seen. The dinner at the Pointe was perfectly served by Christopher and was on par with anything we ate in Vancouver... Regina (?) turned the room down beautifully for us- candles lit, robes arranged, music playing, fire lit... The rental car was delivered the next day... and after a go-see around the area, we had wonderful spa treatments by skillful and good-natured staff. I'm trying hard to find fault with something and I just can't come up with anything. I don't like Frette towels?

“Fantasy at the Inn”

The Wickaninnish Inn & Pointe Restaurant

3/4 found this review helpful

Having just read the negative review posted on Feb. 9/08, we felt compelled to respond positively. My husband and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary at the Wick over the weekend of Feb.8th & 9th/08. From the moment we checked in, until our bittersweet departure, we experienced the top notch professional, friendly, endearing service that we have come to know and expect, during our five different stays at the Inn. From the reception staff to housekeeping personelle, we have only compliments of how they try their best to make each visit unique. Our room and view were spectacular. There were special touches on the turn down service including a drawn bath and twenty five lit candles around our room and tub which we think was prompted by our very friendly and informative server from the Pointe Restaurant. Our meal was incredible! The glow we exuded may have been partially responsible for other quests being unable to see the incredible view through the windows that night. The beautiful panoramic view from the restaurant is availble year round during breakfast and lunch. A dinner view of the same may be experienced when our days are longer preferably accompanied by a breathtaking sunset, which you may also see on a clear winter evening.
If ever we have had a less than desireable moment during any travel experience, we have come to realize that a prompt and courteous word to staff or management will allow a situation to be corrected to the best of all abilities. Waiting until check out time does not allow any one to correct an oversight or mistake.
Thank you to everyone at the Wickaninnish Inn and our dear friends for making our 25th anniversary memorable and extremely romantic .
Sincerely,
Cheryl and Dana D
