I tried to book a reservation with them on Booking.com but ran into some snags as most hotels requite a credit card; I only have a Visa Debit. They were the only hotel in Campbell River who took the time to not only message me, but they also called back and offered us (boyfriend and I) the ability to pay with Visa Debit with a security deposit upon arrival. On top of that, they communicated with me about their themed rooms via email, and then offered us their executive suite with jacuzzi for the same price as the themed rooms, also with deposit. The room was on the top floor, it was huge, quiet and clean. Staff was great. It was odd not to have elevators for the top floors, but I cannot complain. My boyfriend loved the complimentary breakfast. I loved the view of the ocean/beachfront and the front desk staff were fabulous. Thank you!

Had apples and drinks on the bar patio. Incredible view! Friendly and efficient service. Shared orders of various flavours of wings and calamari. Food was excellent if a little pricey. Very limited lounge menu.

Check-in process was smooth, staff were friendly, and the rooms were decently clean. Nice ocean views too. However, I'd say this building and amenities need some upgrades. It's definitely showing it's age, and most amenities were out of order, including the elevator. Probably stay somewhere else next time.

Stopped this past Sunday while in CR and had a nice cold beer. Server Shara was great! Super friendly and fast good service. Folks around us aye and seems very pleased with the food. We will eat there next time for sure.

Went for a staff party dinner, thier service was fantastic and the view was amazing! Thier elevator was completely down which made it difficult for me as I am disabled. Which took my recent experience from 5 Star to a 4 star. I didn't stay in the hotel, but the staff I interacted with were wonderful! I would recommend!

Lovely views from all rooms! We were accommodated on the 1st floor because we were traveling with dogs. That was very convenient. The room was very clean, the beds were comfortable. There could be better soundproofing between floors; the sound of people walking around on the floor above was loud, and went on until 2am. Other than that, there were no negatives.

Went to the Pacific ballroom , 9am / 4pm. Lunch was served, coffee and water with orange juice. Pastries were available. They had tea and hot water, Soda pop . The view was awesome and we seen some killer whales go by. Service was great and friendly, smiling. Was a great day at a great place... only problem is leaving the parking lot up the big hill. Not enough paint on the road , people are driving in the middle and almost caused accident.

I can't even describe my stay because I didn't get through to anyone at the front desk I called for several hours consecutively they would put me on hold for about 10 minutes each time and hang up. 3 of us sat and called over 100 times we called My friends from out of town and their 2 kids waited in the rain for hours they live on the mainland as well so they are far away from home and had no place to go. Not impressed at all worst customer service I've encountered In the hospitality industry. Their sign says Vacant but can't answer the phone ? How they run a business like this I'd beyond me !!!!!

Had the fish and chip special last night. Food was great only made better by Toni's great service. Our first time here, but we will be back!

Amazing views. Nice restaurant and the gym looks lovely (although I didn’t use it). It is a bit run down. Which is too bad as the property has lots of potential!

Happy to stay here for the second year in a row! Biggest value is the Oceanside rooms and view of the tides coming in and out, alongside proximity to whale watching tours (our main travel reason). Noticed that the meals have changed. Breakfast is now $7.99 (previously included) and is now more basic. Previously enjoyed the variety of fruits, juices, ++. They have gone more upscale with the restaurant with main dishes that are averaging $30-35 to previously more solid pub fare (burgers++). Not our style and we ate elsewhere in town instead. Good if that’s what you’re looking for though I’m sure.

Restaurant & patio review: Friendly staff. Baby back ribs are outstanding. Calamari is also really good. Light and fluffy, not chewy at all. Tony was our waitress, was very courteous and efficient even though she was the only one on shift. 5 stars.

Stayed in a theme room for our son's birthday. The room was a lot of fun however it was old and falling apart. A chair had a large rip in the middle of it, the couch was old and dirty, the decor was shabby. With some TLC the Western Room would be something to brag about. The breakfast buffet was $7.99 for hotel guests and hardly had any options. The pool was indoor and great however there was no water in the hot tub. Overall it wasn't a great experience

My mom and I stayed at this hotel on the first floor. We needed a pet friendly room. As soon as we entered our room we smelled overpowering deodorizer or perfume? We had to open the door to air it out it out because the smell was so strong. We got used to it as we stayed in our room. The dressers had grease stains in the drawers and there were small holes in the wall that were stuffed with tissue paper. We could hear people walking above us at 3am too. One nice thing is the view.

My husband and I stayed Oct 21. The room was extremely clean. Great view. Service above and beyond. We left behind 500. American in one of the drawers. Called when we realized what we had done. The staff right away checked our room. The staff were honest and we got our money. We could not be more thankful for the honesty and help we received. We will be back. We will be contacting the manager with the staff members name.

pros: themed rooms pretty cool, all rooms are ocean view, pool is awesome, and desk staff has always been great cons: non themed rooms are pretty old, the executive suite has jet that is broken, and white sheets are not provided.. if you’re not mobile stairs will be a major issue.

It is a decent older hotel, for over CA$100 per night in February, there was a clump of hair left on the tub side of the shower curtain. Not impressive at all. February was off season and the hotel was fairly empty, there is no reason the cleaning staff couldn't double check everything to ensure the room is clean.

Anchor Inn's "every room with an ocean view" is its signature asset. Your own private balcony overlooking Discovery Passage is worth the visit alone. The property is older, but it seems they're trying to keep it updated. The pool / hot tub area is especially nice. The rooms are clean, comfortable and quite reasonably priced. With a 'real' free breakfast included (not a motel-style Continental) it's actually a pretty good deal. The restaurant / lounge strikes a balance between casual and fine dining. The dinner menu is well-thought-out and appropriately priced with generous portion sizes Overall their 3+ star rating is well-deserved.

Staff is wonderful. Restaurant has a limited menu, but the food is EXCELLENT! Views are spectacular. Only lost a star because the elevator was out of service and had been for quite some time.

This is a wonderful hotel, the staff are friendly helpful and accommodating the pub is nice and the food is good.. they have a nice pool large rooms it is a bit noisy if your on lower floors but the top floor is wonderful and quiet. I recommend staying here it is close to town and shopping.. The rooms on the top floor are themed and have large jacuzzi style tubs right in the room, how cool is that

Always a great view from the room. Breakfast is included and is a real hot meal, which is awesome. A pool and hot tub, with both being bookable during COVID, round out to be an enjoyable stay

I booked this hotel for my first work trip as the hotel that was hosting the conference was sold out for the night. Check in was easy, there was a friendly woman that greeted me. She told me all about the hotel and the amenities. Great service! My hotel room was perfect for me for the night, the roar of the ocean makes for a great background sound on a stormy night! The hotel is relatively quiet have only heard a few other guests in the hallway but other than that it's been great! I will definitely stay here again!

My husband and I stayed there for 2 nights this week and we were impressed with the friendly welcome at front desk and everything after that. First of all we received coupons for the 2 mornings we were there to have full breakfast (buffet style) and I must say everything was fresh, hot and delicious. We didn’t use the pool or hot tub but we checked them out and they looked great. Room was cleaned really well, just carpet and furniture a little outdated. But no complaints here as the beautiful view of the ocean was priceless. We also chose to eat dinner both nights at the restaurant and we were really impressed not only with the delicious food but the service as well. So nice to have such a great experience. We will definitely return. Thank you for providing such a wonderful getaway.

We ate at the restaurant yesterday and can't even describe how disappointed we were. It was amazing when it was Sushi By The Sea, great view from that area of the restaurant where it used to be. Now it's dirty and dumpy looking, overpriced menu, $8 for 3 mediocre prawns. Definitely won't be returning. One positive note, the staff are very friendly.

Great visit to Campbell River. Every room looks out onto the water with fantastic views. Rooms are very clean and beds are super comfortable. Restaurant had a great variety and super friendly staff our 4th time staying here and we'll do many more again for sure.

Amazing ocean views & service! Rooms were spotless and service was great. Maria went above and beyond for us, making recommendations, answering a million questions. She even personally booked our fishing license for us. We had no idea how to do it lol. So knowledgeable, helpful and friendly! Great experience overall.

Room was clean and tidy, as well as the rest of the hotel. Very friendly staff and helpful. Rooms have a view of the ocean. Restaurant had good food, reasonably priced and excellent staff to serve you. We stayed for two weeks in April 2022. We would highly recommend this hotel.

The room was pretty standard, though it did have a beautiful ocean view. The beds were comfortable and clean. The housekeeping staff were very nice and did a good job of keeping the rooms clean. The price paid was not consistent with the value offered, $200 per night is all this place is worth.

Stayed twice over the course of 6 months. First stay we were woken up by the fire alarm at 6am (forgivable, kids will be kids and we decided to give it another shot). Second stay we were woken up at 2am by a literal fist fight in the hallway! People screaming and doors slamming over and over again! Nighttime is absolute anarchy. If a good nights sleep is what you need, dont stay here. Not to mention, the dirty rooms and the ant infestation. Will never stay here again. I would rather sleep in my car. Not worth the price. The restaurant was good though!

Way to expensive for for the quality of place. The Arabian room which was the only one available at $300 a night is laughable. Carpets are stained and gross shower is weak and it takes 45 min to fill up the jacuzzi that’s randomly in the corner of the room. The included breakfast doesn’t start in till 7 which is no good for anybody that works

Great hotel for the price. Beds were clean. Bathroom is new and clean. Colors are a little dated. Pool and hot tub looked great, but I didn't use them. Breakfast was nice, hot and fast. I was in their early. I think I will stay again in April. Oh, it might be an idea if you had doggie doo-doo bags outside near the beach and a place to put it...

Clean rooms, and suites with two doubles and a king for families. The pool is a good size and shallow for kids, while the hot tub is a really warm tub but all is good and clean. The restaurant is vax pass only but they will bring the breakfast to the room if you don't have one.

Brutal experience when showing up. In the morning was compensated the proper room rate for the previous night when speaking to another lady up front & showing examples I had from online. She was absolutely fantastic! Book online instead of getting a room upon arrival to avoid any hassle. Views of the water from the room were awesome.
