We stayed here for four nights as we were going to a family wedding in the area. We loved our stay here in the Castle Wall room. First of all, the mattress. My husband has a bad back, so this is always our first consideration. They were willing to take the feather topper off for us as my husband cannot tolerate anything soft. The mattress was then nice and firm and very comfortable for both of us. The pillows were fluffy and comfortable. We could very easily adjust the temperature in the room with our own thermostat. The breakfasts here were fabulous! Different every day, gourmet style and definitely not typical hotel fare. An egg on hash browns, breakfast tacos, breakfast burritos and always we could select a granola and fruit yogurt parfait which was delicious and hearty with plenty of nuts in addition to homemade granola. We also loved having a French press for coffee. The breakfasts came in bento boxes, glass jars and were accompanied by cloth napkins and real silverware. This was close to zero waste. We appreciated being in a room with glass cups and a real wood bed frame. Glenn and Susan were wonderful hosts and made excellent suggestions for area activities!…

Hi Kathleen and Peter, We can't thank you enough for taking time to post such a positive review. We enjoyed chatting with you each day about your adventures. We are pleased you enjoyed the firm mattress and the ability to control the temperature in the room. Castle Wall is a guest favorite and now you have experienced shy. We will share with our culinary team your comments regarding the morning breakfast selections, and why your bento boxes and parfait containers came back empty!!!!!! Our team strives to exceed guest expectations and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay.

Hotel's Favourite
Beautiful suite, nicely appointed, and very clean. The Lopez Suite was perfect for our family of four. Beds are super comfortable and bedding was like a cloud. Hot breakfast delivered to door was delicious: hot biscuits, eggs, gravy, with homemade granola and yogurt parfait, juice and coffee. French champagne, cookies and gorgeous flower arrangement made my birthday super special. Definitely worth the splurge. Staff was accessible and very nice.

Hi Sarah, We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. The Lopez Suite is great for a family of four. Many times, guests miss their early morning walks, because they can't get out of bed...too comfortable!! We love that you described in detail, many of our amenities that make a stay at our Inn so special. We do hope you will return and allow us to pamper you one more time!

Best accommodation on the island! My partner and I decided on a spontaneous trip to San Juan and were calling around to see where we could stay. Something about this place though felt right (I have great radar) and what do you know, there were absolutely no regrets! On the contrary, now we know EXACTLY where to stay when we visit! Patrick answered the phone despite it being after hours, came to the location in less than 15 minutes, and had us sold in less than 5. The room itself was oh so cozy (a modern Little Town on the Prairie), the bathroom sensual (jetted spa tub with bubbles, spacious shower, and bathrobes), and the amenities so convenient (liquid products appear to be 5x the size of what you'd get at a hotel). We absolutely loved staying here! Important things to note: - The front doors remain unlocked (even during the night), but the rooms themselves have locks (with a small deadbolt flap) - January is a slow season so you're likely to have more room choices. July and August are the busiest - Check out is 10AM (not 11AM like a hotel) - Pet friendly. $45/day/pet - Quiet hours are from 10 p.m. to 9 a.m. so no loud noises such as the hot tub/bathtub jets. There is a $200 fine for excessive noise. - Offers concierge service and can arrange local adventures such as massages, whale watching, etc. They also offer complimentary kayaks and bikes…

The cabin we stayed in was very nice. Bed was extremely comfortable and there was a fire going in the gas fireplace. There was a bad storm that took out power the one night and the hosts called and ensured we were comfortable and had emergency lights. We absolutely loved staying and are already looking to book our next stay. The complimentary breakfast was phenomenal and such a welcome change to the typical continental breakfast. LOVED this place.

Hi Jamie, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience while staying at the Tucker House Inn. The weather and power outage were challenging, however our team continued to provide excellent service.

Our culinary team loves to prepare wonderful breakfasts that are either sweet or savory. I will pass on your comments to them. We do hope to see you again in the new year and please remember to call us directly to ensure your "Return Guest" 15% discount. Happy 2023

I highly recommend finding a different accommodation. We live out of state. We were supposed to stay here, and have stayed here for past visits to the island. We just found out that we have COVID, and are thus unable to travel across the country putting countless other people at risk. We were supposed to split our stay across two hotels. We called the other hotel, which also has a no cancellation policy, to let them know that we had COVID. They immediately asked us not to come so as to protect their staff and other guests. They gave us a full refund and wished us well in our recovery. We then called Tucker House Inn, who informed us, verbatim "We no longer deal with COVID." They refused to cancel our reservation, even though they would have multiple days notice. We let them know that others are still dealing with COVID, including us. We asked if we should still come and put them and other guests at risk. They said it was up to us, because they don't allow cancellations no matter what. Personally, we will opt to stay elsewhere in the future, as we have lost all respect for the Tucker House Inn.…

Every guest when they make an online reservation is sent a confirmation email, which states our cancellation policies. "We recommend travel insurance in the event you need to cancel, delete dates on a multiple-night stay, or change the dates of your stay.

We stayed in the sunshine suite above the coho cafe right in the heart of Friday Harbor. We brought our 3 month old son and little dog. They even had a pack and play if we needed it! The place has an amazing charm and was a fun overnight stay! Would definitely stay again

Hi BaggaDonuts, Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review regarding your family stay in the Sunshine Suite. The suite is perfectly located in the heart of downtown Friday Harbor. It is self-contained and designed to house up to six guests. We do hope you will return and maybe try a different suite or cottage within our portfolio.

Sue and I visited in late November. Our flight was delayed and we let Susan and Glen, the managers, know. They were so helpful in facilitating our late arrival, including a complimentary bottle of bubbly. Our room, Four Winds, was spectacular. Susan and Glen gave us a great briefing on dining and places to see. As an airline pilot, I feel I’m an accomplished traveler. This establishment is on the top of my list after forty years of world travel. Dormers and balcony, fire place, jacuzzi tub, breakfast in a basket at your door, the overall coziness factor that you’ll never find in a chain establishment all above and beyond. But truly, the best part, the cherry on top, was how great Susan and Glen were. Many thanks for making our visit so wonderful!! Sue and Jack

We enjoyed our stay at middleton suite. The location was very convenient - close to town and the ferry. The breakfast was yummy. Our dog was pampered with the pet welcome treats and breakfast. The suite has everything we need. We’ve been to Friday harbor many times, this is the best lodging experience so far. Excellent communication from time of booking until checkout. We’ll be back!
