"Really enjoyed the Harbour Master Suite and the size of the space. Great to have separate sleeping spaces and a dining room table to work and eat on. Needs better lighting in the living room and dining room spaces as there was none. The lights from the bed and hallway are too small and far away to light the living spaces."

"We stayed at the Maq April 2024. Location is in the heart of Tofino, easily walkable to shops, restaurants & tour services. Parking was provided behind the hotel at no charge. Our rooms were clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The “mini fridge” was a cooler and ice was provided free of charge at the Maq liquor store. Perfectly suited our needs. Since we stayed off season, the hotel dining room was open only one night during our stay, food was really good with affordable pricing. There is a beautiful patio off the restaurant and lobby. We happened to hit “wine Wednesday” for 1/2 price bottles of wine, so that was an added bonus!
The coffee shop in the lobby offers snacks and good coffee.
We loved the eclectic feel of the hotel, the decor and that the Maq is dog friendly as is the town. Next time we visit, we will be bringing ours.
Any staff we interacted with at the hotel were friendly and knowledgeable. Our future visits to Tofino will ensure a stay at the Maq, and there will be a next visit. Tofino is a fun little town, there is something for everyone and such a natural wonder that we and Canada are so fortunate to have.
