“Great Place with character and charm”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2011

The Bird Rock Hotel in Friday Harbor is a wonderful place. The rooms are beautiful. Myah and Tory are friendly and helpful and all-around great. The cookies were yummy and had a wonderful citrus flavour. The breakfast was great. The rug at the bottom of the bed was so comfortable to rest your feet in. We had a nice view of the harbour. We felt like we were visiting at the home of close friends!

Room Tip: All the rooms are nice and each of them have their own character and charm.

“small hotel with bed & breakfast like charm!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2011

such a nice place! this hotel is more like a bed and breakfast. the host was very nice. some rooms have bathrooms in them, while other rooms have bathroom access down the hall or on a different floor. the decor is very nice. snacks are in the lobby throughout the day. breakfast is fantastic - with fresh scones, coffee, cut fruit, etc.! you can use their bicycles to get around the island. the location is right in the heart of downtown, right near the water. we did not have an issue with noise at night, and were able to sleep with the windows open.

“the heart of Friday Harbor”

Our stay at the Bird Rock Hotel was an absolute treat! The front desk staff were delightful and knowledgeable - always available to answer a question about the yummy bath products, where to have a romantic dinner in town, how to start the cozy gas fireplace, and in addition to the continental breakfast they provided cookies and strawberry lemonade each afternoon. The hotel itself is smack dab in the heart of Friday Harbor, an easy 2-3 blocks from the ferry terminal. Looking forward to returning during the summer season and exploring more of the island!

“Great Room, Great Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2011

We just had a wonderful 2 night stay in the Salt Springs Suite. It was an adorable room, including kitchenette, private balcony, and huge bathtub. The breakfast included delicious fresh fruit, and yummy scones among other things. Mia at the desk was wonderful! The only negative was that the sofa bed was very squeaky and uncomfortable but then again, I don't expect too much out of a sofa bed. We fit 3 people comfortably in the room.
