Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
This place isn't really a traditional hotel, felt more like a bed and breakfast, minus the breakfast. Picture a big, rambling old country house divided up into rooms. Rooms were a little odd and it's not furnished all in white / beige like a modern hotel, but please, take note of where you are. It was clean, it was comfortable, Gracie was friendly and welcoming. There's a great deck right across from the ocean that was a perfect place to relax.

Gracie's Place is a multi-room motel that provides some pleasant outside sitting areas as well as access to a BBQ, a hotplate and a fridge for each room. Also provided is cutlery, coffee maker, kettle, dishes and bowls, etc.
The rooms vary in size - the first one we stayed in on the main floor was small but comfortable and clean. Like many other Charlotte accomodations, the building is fairly old but is well maintained. Gracie herself is a dleightful character and a lot of fun to talk to.
When we returned from Masset we stayed again at Gracie's, this time in a room upstairs in the main house. It was bright and comfortable, and had a magnificent view of the water and the local dock.
Although not a B&B, there were enough kitchen items to work with to allow you to have cereal and tea/coffee if you so desired (also provided). We would definitely stay here again.

We rented a Gracie’s van for a week, and spent our last night at Gracie’s — all good. Upon leaving, I misplaced my shaving kit and had to board the airport shuttle without it. The shuttle bus does a circuit of the town and on its return past Gracie’s place on the way to the ferry, Gracie flagged the bus down and handed the driver my shaving kit. Gracie is the model for Haida Gwaii grace. Many thanks.

We loved staying at Gracie’s place because Gracie is so sweet! We lucked out since someone else canceled and got room # 5, room with a kitchen, dining, living rooms, and wonderful deck with stunning views! Highly recommended especially if you want to be close to the marina

This is a lovely place to stay right in the centre of QCC. Everything is within walking distance and the view of the ocean is magnificent. Gracie is an absolutely wonderful lady who ensured I had everything I needed for my five nights. The gentle creek at the front is beautiful.

Most people who come to Haida Gwaii get it. There are no 5 star hotels here. Most visitors want it that way - as do most of the residents. This is a super remote archipelago that's one of the most undeveloped, pristine places on Earth. To simply be here is a privilege. I'm not sure you can judge or rate a hotel in a place like this by the same criteria one does in a place like Akron Ohio or Bangor Maine.
Most people who come here would settle for a semi-dry tent. That's how unbelievably awesome Haida Gwaii is. Gracie's however is a warm, clean, dry, affordable, welcoming place. Gracie is a wonderful, real host. Okay, the rooms are unusual. They don't have much in common with a Ramada. But the small things - coffee makers in every room, desks that look out over the harbor, an actual working wood cook stove in one suite (which Gracie MIGHT let you use if you seem competent), a barbecue on each deck - one that actually works; all these things make a stay at Gracie's like a stay at your favorite aunt's.
If you're looking for an 'excellent hotel' where your every wish is pampered to - I totally recommend the Pan Pacific in Whistler or the 4 Seasons in Vancouver. If however you want a good resting place after a day on the edge of the world - Gracie's will pretty much do it.

When I booked a room I was told I had my pick of the rooms, so I chose a medium sized unit with a kitchen. However within hours, I got a call asking if I could switch for a smaller, but similar room as Gracie had some long term guests that she would like to accommodate. Being reasonable, I said I would do so if I got a discount and I thought one was offered.
it turns out I traded for a dungeon that I wouldn't ever recommend. The "discount" was full price for that room. This is a tired, worn out place - stay there is you want but make sure you negotiate a huge discount from the listed prices.

Room Tip:Â If you have to choose a room, pick an upstairs room; the basement is horrible.

My friend and I stayed at Gracie's place for three nights in mid-July. We chose this particular little hotel because it is central in Queen Charlotte and we did not want to have to drive everywhere (even though we had a rental car). Our room was clean, comfortable, and the twin beds were exactly what we needed. The kitchenette was appropriately stocked so we had no problems preparing our meals - including having another set of friends join us for a barbeque one night. We were not looking for a chain hotel experience. We were looking for Queen Charlotte charm and hospitality - and that's exactly what we got. Having internet access was also a bonus as my cell phone (Rogers) does not work on Haida Gwaii!

Room Tip:Â We wanted a downstairs room because, although smaller and 'darker' they are also cooler...

A horrible, horrible place. The room downstairs was cramped, stinky and all around uncomfortable. At 3 am we were awakened by a police office pounding on the door demanding to know if we were guests and why the rooms adjacent to ours were wide open. After checking in we never saw Gracie again not even during this unpleasant episode. We certainly never saw any nice upstairs, the whole place looked like a dump. We had one cruddy daybed and some kind of mattress on the floor. The bathroom door didn't close correctly and banged open and shut. The towels were from Walmart at best. I can't imagine preparing food to eat in the kitchen. Horrible, from the start, couldn't wait to get the heck out.

Lets just say we did not want to leave! The 'house' at Gracie's had 2 bedrooms washer/ drier,stove (so dont understand last review) and just sitting either out front or round the back on her 'hill' was glorious. Gracie's is really quaint with lovely little touches and a real cosy feeling. Gracie is fun and dynamic too. Friend from Australia felt so at home and contented she really did not want to think about moving on. Maybe its the place itself, maybe the weather maybe the people we met but we had a wonderful time and I may even use my friends parlance to say it was awesome. Thanks Gracie
