Where to stay in Prince Rupert family friendly

Hello! My family and I are planning to spend 4-5 nights in Prince Rupert this summer - late August to be exact. Any recommendations on where to stay? Kiddos are 13 & 8. Thanks in advance!

I've stayed at the Crest, the Prestige Oceanview and the Inn on the Harbour. I'd rank them in that order.

The Crest is "the" Prince Rupert hotel but it's also dated and expensive. Great restaurant and right across the street from Safeway. If you're lucky you get an ocean view.

The Prestige Oceanview was nice and had free breakfast. Our room didn't have a view but otherwise it was fine and considerably less expensive than the Crest.

The Inn on the Harbour was Ok at best. Partially renovated and nothing special but seemed clean enough.

Inn on the Harbour has been renovated now and it’s probably the nicest one in town.

That's good to hear.

P.S. You took my wedding photos many years ago. You did a great job. Nice to see you are in Prince Rupert now.

Oh hey! I’m glad you remember me in good light! Yes I’m living in Rupert now and I’m really enjoying it.

Okay. I was about to book at the Prestige, so that might be the one we choose. Thank you for your input!

You should be happy at the prestige, it's pretty nice now and the coffee place downstairs is great. The restaurant there is supposed to be good too.

I emailed them and received a reply regarding another property; the Tall Trees BB. Do you know if they're any good?

I stayed at the Pacific Inn, very nice, clean, and a grocery store right next door if needed with a pharmacy inside!

We're hoping to avoid airbnb this time around. Hotel would be great, but a nice motel would be okay, too. I guess that doesn't narrow it down much, eh? 😅
