House Of Himwitsa

Wonderful place to stay in Tofino. Excellent location for walking throughout town. Front desk staff were friendly and accommodating. Stayed in room #4 which has a private hot tub on the deck. The only criticism I have about my stay is that housekeeping came in and started turning over the room before we were ready to check out. We put our bags in the car and walked to breakfast with the plan to return to the room afterwards to wait out the rain until checkout time but when we returned the door was propped open and the room was stripped. Nonetheless it was a beautiful room and a wonderful stay.

Nice small little shop. Has some authentic art and some touristy trinkets too. Neat music, knowledgeable manager and good location.

I would give this place a zero star as we had booked this place thru booking.com about 5 months ago and paid the 30%, as my credit card does have fraud protection they tried taking out the 70% numerous times without my knowledge and been declined as we usually pay the remainder on arrival or as we thought, upon arrival all the way from the mainland found out they cancelled our reservation after talking to someone the day before about our checking time in and was told no problem, they could have mention the issue with the credit card then which they did not. We arrived after 3 and 1/2 hour drive from Nanaimo to Tofino, not counting the ferry ride from the mainland, to find out our room was booked by someone who came in on our arrival time. They left us hanging with no place to stay after booking this place for so long with high expectations. Totally ruined our trip to Tofino. The people behind the counter were rude and all he kept saying to us was,"We are running a business here." Basically just throwing us out, we made sure we got our 30% refunded as he didn't offer after we mentioned it. Would never recommend this place to anyone,

Great selection, any thing you might want is here. Fair prices.

For being local to everything in tofino it was great. The hot tub that was in our room was filthy though. And this place was very out dated for the price in my opinion.
