The YukonHome/Where to stay/Sooke/3-star hotels
3-star hotels in Sooke
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Sooke for travellers who want a West Coast base on southern Vancouver Island. It covers waterfront resorts, inns and bed & breakfasts from the town centre out along West Coast Road, so you can match a property to how close you want to be to the shops and harbour.
Staying in Sooke
Sooke sits on the southern coast of Vancouver Island, where rainforest, beaches and rugged coastline meet the sheltered Sooke Basin. Visitors come for hiking at Sooke Potholes Provincial Park, kayaking and wildlife watching on the basin, fishing, whale watching in the strait and storm watching in winter along the shore. The town has a small, walkable centre with local shops and restaurants, and the climate is mild and oceanic, with wet winters and dry, comfortable summers.
These 3-star properties are spread along West Coast Road and Sooke Road rather than clustered in one spot. Two sit at the town end, close to the centre and the harbour: Sooke Harbour Resort & Marina and Ty Collwyn Waterfront Retreat, with Seascape Inn, 4 Beaches Bed & Breakfast, Moonlit Cove B&B and Handsome Dan's at Otter Point further out, and Points West Oceanfront Resort and Ocean Wilderness Inn at the western edge. That makes the list well suited to couples and quiet short breaks, to families who want kitchen and laundry facilities, and to anyone happy to drive between the town and the coast.
