The Norwegian Bliss sailed past the inn on its way to Los Angeles, as the Alaska cruise season comes to a close. The days grow shorter as the sun heads south as well.

Congrats to our neighbour!

Victoria has done it again! 🏆

For the fourth year in a row, Victoria has been named the best small city in the world in Condé Nast Traveler’s annual Readers’ Choice Awards.

Nearly 800,000 travellers took part in this year’s awards, with BC’s capital coming out on top against some pretty impressive international destinations, including San Sebastián, Spain and Venice, Italy.

The publication highlighted many of the things that make our corner of the world so special, from the scenic ferry ride to Vancouver Island and Victoria’s historic downtown to the Fairmont Empress, afternoon tea and easy access to the Island’s forests and coastline.

Victoria first claimed the number one spot in 2023 and has managed to hold onto the title every year since.

“To be recognized by travellers from around the world for a fourth consecutive year is both humbling and inspiring,” Destination Greater Victoria CEO Paul Nursey said following the announcement.

Not bad for our little city on the Island.

Do you think Victoria deserves to be named the best small city in the world?

Our guests are the best one can find anywhere in the world! We especially love those who return gracious words after they head back to their homes. A recent couple left this 5-star review:

"This B&B is such a gem, and so are its owners, Dan and Janet. Each morning’s breakfast was gourmet and delicious, and the coffee roasted on site was a treat all its own. I’ll never forget sipping hot coffee while overlooking the strait and listening to the foghorns—one of those peaceful moments you wish you could take home with you. From the lavender sachets to the thoughtful patriotic decor, so many special touches made us feel as though we had stepped into Mount Vernon itself. You can feel the care Dan and Janet have poured into this place. It was such a memorable part of our first trip to the Pacific Northwest with our daughter, and we’ll remember our stay with so much fondness."

Remember those days when you anxiously awaited your teacher handing back the paper that you labored over and spent all your energy into its formation? A recent guest gets an "A+" for this review, the longest one we'd had so far. Here it is:

Our stay at this lovely, tranquil Inn was one we will never forget. The place is surrounded by gorgeous natural scenery, and its aesthetic reminded us of a time when love for God was shown with honor and virtue at the forefront, expressed through hospitality and service to all who stayed in its safe haven. We were welcomed by its hosts, Dan and Jan, with the utmost friendliness and warmth that instantly put us at ease and comfort. Dan quickly helped us with our belongings, and Jan promptly and politely reviewed the guest policies, which were by no means unreasonable.

Our room was so comfortable and pleasingly decorated that we felt we were immediately transported into the guest chambers of George and Martha Washington themselves. The king-sized bed was raised high, with wooden stools on each side to help us settle into a very good night's sleep. It evoked a vicarious nostalgia for a long-ago time. The amenities were second to none, so that we had everything we needed without having to ask. Aside from the 18th-century aesthetic, we had all the modern conveniences we needed (wifi, TV, etc.). The air-jetted bathtub was a welcome, relaxing reprieve, and the rest of the bathroom was large, clean, and had a wonderful view of Port Angeles Harbor.

Jan was an extraordinary cook and baker! One could tell she takes great pride in what she makes and serves to her guests. The food was wonderful, and the view out the large windows while eating was superb. Both Dan and Jan were always willing to answer texts with restaurant recommendations and were always pleasantly responsive. I feel that had I knocked on their door at one in the morning, they would have responded with a servant's heart, like we were beloved family rather than obnoxious guests.

Overall, the place is worth the money spent, and we will be going back whenever we are in the Port Angeles area again. Thank you again, Dan and Jan, for a wonderful experience!

"For travelers seeking the finest overall experience rather than simply the convenience of a larger hotel, George Washington Inn belongs in the top tier of Port Angeles lodging... Its combination of architecture, historical identity, oceanfront acreage, lavender landscape, mountain views, and intimate hospitality is unmatched by the city’s conventional hotels." ChatGPT
