Central location, free coffee throughout the property

David, Canada

Loved the decor and location. The staff was wonderful and very accommodating. Wonderful restaurant downstairs which we enjoyed for our meals. Complimentary coffee at any time. The hotel and restaurant were above our expectations.

Bjc, Canada

Since it said it would have a shared bathroom, we didn't expect a sink in the room so that was nice. It did feel like a historic hotel.

David, United States of America

A very comfortable room and we had a good sleep. The bathrooms were always very clean. The location of the inn is great as its close to restaurants and evening entertainment, the Saturday market and lots of interesting shops.

Sue, Canada

Excellent location. Friendly staff. Right across the street from a grocery store and liquor store, which is convenient. The restaurant was surprisingly good. The place is spotlessly clean.

Immanuel, Canada

We were greeted by a warm welcome and our stay in room 2 was cozy and perfect for the 2 days there. The entire staff who work at the Inn are amazing!! Friendly efficient work hard and serve you with a friendly kind manor which was very refreshing. Rebecca served us dinner on the night of Friday May 18 and she was super,kind, pleasant and truly wanted our dinner experience to be really nice and she did just that on a very busy full house night. You’ve got some wonderful staff at the Inn which for us made staying there even more special. The location is amazing, right downtown in the heart of Ganges a trip to remember 😊

Kim, Canada

It is in the perfect location in Ganges. Right in the middle of many shops, cafes and restaurants.

Suzanne, Canada

The room was comfortable and nice to have a sink in the bathroom. Very quiet at night, even with the window open. A friend and I had dinner one night and it was excellent. The coffee and eggs the next morning were perfect.

Galen, United States of America

My stay at Salt Spring Inn contributed to my overall excellent experience of the island. It was charming, super clean, and the staff was very accommodating. An added plus was the restaurant. The crab cakes were my favorite.

An Inside Look at Salt Spring Inn

Salt Spring Inn, in the heart of Ganges Village, offers seven tastefully appointed, affordable guest rooms and one of Salt Spring Island’s favourite restaurants. We are only a few steps away from the famous Saturday Market, many shops, galleries, cafés, the bus station, seaplane dock and 3 marinas. Our guest rooms provide a luxurious sleep on pillow-top beds in a style which portrays the property’s 75 year history. Originally built by Harry Bullock, the self proclaimed "Squire of Ganges" in 1937, the property has had many "chapters". After a recent and complete restoration and renovation, our hotel and restaurant now combine many heritage features and charm with contemporary function. We offer the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing beverage, delicious meal or appetizer on our covered deck, lower garden patio or indoors, near the fireplace in cooler seasons. Open from 8AM (9AM in Winter) until late every night, our hospitality is affordable and an island favourite. Whether you arrive in Ganges by seaplane, on foot, bicycle, community bus or in a vehicle from one of three ferry terminals, the “The Inn" is only minutes away.

When the bathroom is shared you would expect it to be well maintained. But they only serviced it once a day and it was a real mess for the most part of my stay. Pretty annoying. When they serviced the room the only thing they did was making the bed using the same sheets they didn’t vacuum or even replace the empty box of tissues or the soap.
Staff is very nice and accommodating. Location is very good.

Restaurant only opens at 8 but really not a problem as there are other options in the town.
Very quiet and all the amenities that you would need. Resturant, bar and close to the rest of Ganges. Enjoyed the environment and room was clean and kept in good condition. Almost like a B& B but much better!

I knew it was shared bathroom facilities and they were very nice and clean - just realized that it maybe isn't the best for seniors. No reflection on staff - just personal preference.
I really enjoyed the ambiance and the bed was comfy!
