Artisan Suites on Bowen

The Artisan Suites are in a lovely location on Bowen Island. Our room Park View was very clean and felt very homely. The view from the window was of the park and the Artisan Lane shops. There were nice ouches with the decor, the fridge with some milk, a pod coffee machine, bottled water and a large screen TV. There were plenty of towels and nice products in the ensuite. The bed was very comfortable with good quality linen.

The only issues were that most of the shops in Artisan Lane are closed Monday and Tuesday including the Cafe. The parking times indicated in the host instructions did not align with what was on the signs in Artisan Lane. If your taking a car the ferry trip only takes 20 minutes, waiting to embark on the return journey can take a while though.

My sister and I stayed here for a few days. We loved that it felt like we were in a little artsy village within walking distance from Snug Cove. The beds were very comfy, with lovely linens. A real feature was that the botanical luxury shampoos, conditioner, soap and lotion we used were all made a few steps away at Sangre De Fruta shop. We also loved the Artisan Eats café place right downstairs that served up delicious breakfasts, baking and sandwiches to take with us on our explorations of this delightful island.

Café on ground floor was very convenient but it was closed on Monday and Tuesday. However, we bought some pastries while we had lunch there upon arrival. Problem solved. 😄 We stayed in the Parkview suite with great view of the village square. Interior of the room was photogenic and functional, well equipped and maintained. Spatial standard was great as well. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 We enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely come back when we visit Bowen Island next time.

The decor was truly beautiful. The lovely tokens as gifts were very nice along with the hand cream which was exceptional. The real art not just a print was a very nice touch. The heated bathroom floor and the shower/bath details were also lovely. We had a beautiful time, and will definately come back.

The only thing I would say was the entrance made me a bit uneasy not having a room key but that was minor. Also, not the hotels fault but the cafe down below closes too early.

What a beautiful little place. Chocolates on the pillow when I got there, Nespresso coffee machine, best cup of coffee I've had in a long time. In floor, heat in the bathroom was a beautiful touch. The bed was comfortable and the Wi-Fi worked great. I have to come back in a couple of months and I will definitely be booking a room if there is availability.

There was nothing not to like, parking was mainly because there was snow, but I could see it might be a bit of a problem in the summer, we'll see

Nice large room with attractive decor and good facilities. Nespresso coffee machine in room. Convenient location near to snug cove and Artisan shops right outside. Comfy bed and Netflix on a large TV. Convenient check in using pass code provided in advance.

Parkview overlooks Artisan square which is busy until the shops close around 5pm. One morning I was disturbed by music from 7am from neighbors (not sure if they were other guests). Artisan cafe is nice but not always open, couldn't get breakfast there on Monday morning and had to travel elsewhere.

I liked everything, from the keyless code entry to the amazing coffee to the container of cream in the fridge, the chocolates on the pillow, the amazing heated floors in the bathroom, the incredible rain shower head, it was all fantastic 😍

Zero, there were no negatives at all

The location was perfect in so many ways. Our suite with its lovely balcony overlooked the central square and our side window had the most stunning view of the mountains and water. The suite was beautifully furnished and decorated which made it all the more wonderful to stay in. The staff could not have been more helpful.

There was nothing to dislike.

I stayed here spring break 2021, and fell in love! I booked it right away for spring 2022! This year was even better. I absolutely love the Artisan Suites and the Artisan Square. I could pretty much walk anywhere from this location with all the hidden trails I found this year. Such a magical place. I've already booked for 2023!

The neighbors were noisy one night..and late. But that wasn't the fault of anyone except the inconsiderate neighbors. I never heard anyone else and the place was full the whole time.

So clean! The decor was beautiful as was the view. I loved the extra touches like the printed/laminated Info cards, the Nespresso machine with milk in the fridge and the reverse osmosis water. Check in and out was a breeze. Love the location.

The stairs going up to the suite would be a challenge for the mobility impaired.
