We stayed in the Tin Wis for 2 nights in June 2008. The hotel is situated directly on a private beach/cove facing the pacific ocean. The setting is really spectacular. Our room was clean, although very dated and a little run down. The bathroom shower head whistled extremely loud when hot water was running through it. We could hear nearby... more

I stayed at the Tin-Wis for the weekend with my 10 year old son. The hotel is on a prime location just a few steps (literally) from MacKenzie beach. From the outside (particularly the beach side), the hotel looks spectacular and seems like it could be a new resort that just opened last month. I agree with some reviewers who... more

The view is exquisite. The beach divine. The hotel did nothing to enhance either. You could put this hotel in Backwash, Nowhere and it would fit right in. At around $300 a night, no thank you. more

Tin Wis means "Calm Waters" and I definitely felt that I had a very calm and relaxing stay at the Best Western Tin Wis. The staff are very friendly, the location is stunning and the rooms were very clean and cozy. This is definitely one of the nicer Best Western properties in North America. There is a beautiful beach that... more

The hotel is beautifully situated on the beach. The hotel is mid priced, but it has a low cost motel feel. Reception staff were being trained and it took 45 minutes to check me in. On arrival in the 'renovated room' I was surprised to see that they meant renovated in 1979. The décor was old and tired. It was... more

Just spent the night here but awesome location, right on Mackenzie Beach - literally! It helped that it was sunny and warm as the views from our room was spectacular. Every room has a view of the ocean. Place is a bit outdated, but the value is great. Went for breakfast at the onsite restaurant - waaaaay overpriced - our... more

Beautiful location. Facility is undergoing some updating and it's looking better all the time. We stayed in a pet friendly suite (King Kitchenette) however there are no ammenities added for the pets (many other properties charging this amount provide a bed or water dish at least). Bed is comfortable and rooms are clean. Excellent food at the "Calm Waters" restaurant.... more

This was such a great location that we stayed an extra day. The hotel has ocean view from every room and they aren't exaggerating! The rooms are spacious and fully equipped. The beach is just a walk out the back. It looks like a short version of Long Beach. We had booked a double queen room, but decided to upgrade... more

This was my first visit to Tofino after living on the island for 10 years! Tofino is an amazing place and recommend everyone to travel here at least once. We stayed at Tin Wis only because there was nothing else available in Tofino during the busy summer season. This summer we are staying at Pacific Sands. But Tin Wis was... more
