Stayed a couple of nights at the Padders Inn, comfortable, clean and cozy, its located right next to the sea and close to the market and restaurants. I didn't have any trouble with noise. I recommend it. More

We enjoy this place. It wasn't anything special or fancy but we had no problem sleeping here. It had a nice cafe and patio in the back shared by the shop. The bathrooms are shared but they were very clean! No problems with hot water, long waits or anything. There is an extra bathroom downstairs by the entrance too. Loved... More

I will NOT be staying at the Paddler's Inn again. This place now seems to be very badly managed. I recently stayed for a few days hoping to re-energize and relax. Instead, and in high season, management considered it appropriate to go ahead with two very noisy maintenance projects. Guest comfort certainly takes second place here. I arrived to carpet... More

Tofino is still a beautiful town on the island and i do hope the people of tofino keep it as such there is always a risk of these places becoming a bit "tacky" not so the paddlers inn.What a fantastic place to stay.Often "no frills" is not a compliment but it is meant as such when refering to Paddlers inn...

We had an extremely negative experience here. The walls are paper thin and at $79 a night I don't expect to be asked to don the "complimentary ear-plugs". Noisy would be an understatement - Don't even consider this place during the high season, and I would think hard about staying here again period were it not for my wife's unequivocal... More

Located right in downtown Tofino, this inn was a great stopon our road-trip. I wish we'd stayed here longer. Room was $79, wound up with a room with 2 singles and a loft double. Lots of crisp, clean towels, sitting area, closet. Beds were amazingly comfortable. Street noise was not an issue, and earplugs are provided for those who need... More

This is one of the worst B&B's I've ever seen. We booked a room for two nights by phone and told the lady on the line that we have a infant with us. She told us, that everything is fine. On the day we arrived in Paddlers Inn the first words we heared was "oh you have a baby? we... More

On arriving to Paddlers Inn, we found a charming laminated sign in our room stating that since it is a heritage building, the rooms are not sound proofed and that complimentary earplugs are provided. At 86 dollars per room (75 plus various taxes), I do not expect to don earplugs to avail of some peace and quiet. While I understand... More

The Paddler's Inn is a very well located B&B for the Tofino village. Right above the Sea Kayaking company and just down the street from the government dock means that it is very easy to explore the town and do activities - especially if you don't have a car and have come to Tofino on one of the backpacker buses....
