Had a great two-night stay at The Francis Boutique Inn in Ucluelet! The room was very clean and the bed was really comfortable. The drive to Tofino was scenic and relaxing. We also found it super convenient to have an EV charging station right on the property’s parking lot — a nice bonus for travellers with electric cars!

A nice room, bed is very comfortable, hot tub is a nice option. Wish the fridge had an ice option, and a fan is needed in the room.

Property is well-located for walking to most of the town restaurants, bars and co-op grocery store. The room was well-appointed.
Particularly liked the property’s sauna and hot tub set-up.

A perfect home base to explore from!
We stayed in a King Suite and it was a perfect little apartment with everything we needed to be comfortable- two adults and a teen. The hot tub and sauna were amazing to come back to after a day of exploring the rainy beaches and forests. Ucluelet is an adorable town. We will stay here again on our next trip to the area.

We loved the property. We were in #5-a studio, and were happy with the small kitchenette area with dinette, comfy bed and lovely shower!
Robes and slippers supplied for the short walk to sauna and hot tub. Peace and quiet.
I like to read at night and could only ask for the night-light to have a dimmer…to respect my partner. All in all a sweet spot in Ukee😊
Staff welcomed us upon arrival.

We stayed in suite 3- bottom floor - studio suite. It was cute and cozy, & quite clean and fresh smelling (except for some old pizza sauce spray on the kitchen wall- lol)
There were robes and flip flops for the walk to the hottub and sauna - which was great !
The parking wasn’t ok for a big truck - it was steep and gravel and tight spots - but we figured it out 😁

My room was large and nicely decorated. It had a small kitchen with everything you need for a short stay. The bed was very comfortable. The hotel was full while I was there and I never heard anyone else - it's very quiet. I would highly recommend the Francis Boutique Hotel!

Wonderful accomodation
The property is wonderful. The apartments are extremely well thought through, with plenty of space and fantastic amenities. Check-in is done remotely but the reception was extremely communicative and responsive. The additional amenities of a sauna and a hot tub felt as a luxury that really elevated our experience. Overall a memorable accomodation that we would love to visit again along with recommending it.

We appreciated how well appointed the place was. Although we didn’t use the hot tub or sauna it was a nice perk for those who enjoy using these amenities. We highly recommend this place to stay while in Ucluelet.
