A beautiful, secluded place to stay and relax. Walking around the property is interesting, with a mix of forest, flowering trees and plants and vegetable gardens. Views of Ganges bay from the Manor House area are spectacular. Warm muffins are delivered to the room around 7:30 a.m. Then a wonderful made to order breakfast in the Manor House, overlooking the water. Dinner at the restaurant was outstanding. The staff were all pleasant and helpful. The only disappointment was that the hotel was aware that we were there to celebrate my wife's birthday and she never received any special recognition. Membership in Relais & Châteaux well deserved.
Hastings House is set in a beautiful location.
We stayed in the Farmhouse, which is right along the water. There are gorgeous gardens around the property as well. It's also an easy walk to the nearby town of Ganges. The hotel's decor is very rustic and charming. It's the type of place you go to get away for peace and quiet. Be prepared to consume a lot of calories. The staff deliver fresh muffins to your door every morning, and then a massive breakfast is also included with your stay. It's pretty expensive - I would've rather skipped the breakfast and muffins and paid about $100 less each day (which is what the bill said our daily breakfast cost). But that is my only critique. Overall, we enjoyed it. We had a relaxing time in a beautiful location with friendly staff, and we enjoyed getting to explore Salt Spring Island from our home base at Hastings House.
Our room was spectacular overlooking the harbour. Staff were great organizing a golf cart to transport my elderly mother from room to car. Food was excellent.
Hastings house is a beautiful property but feels a tiny bit dated. I would stay there again because it’s the nicest hotel on salt spring island but the rooms while comfortable could do with a refresh
Magical! Hastings House offers the most stunning setting for walks, drinks and dinner. The suites are unique and luxurious with beautiful views. Service was outstanding and what a treat to find warm, fresh-baked muffins at your door in the morning. Enjoyed fabulous massages at the spa. A quick and lovely walk to Ganges shops.
Quiteness was what we liked the most
One day the room was not cleaned until we asked for it at the end of the day.

Beautiful property in need of TLC & staff training
We experienced a mix bag. The waitstaff was excellent, the food was very good. The condition of the building was rough in areas. The view out one window of our room was of the water--beautiful! Out another window was a roof repair that had been half-completed and all the construction debris left. The exterior of the building was needing TLC as were the gardens. The check in staff was lacking in training as was the spa staff.
Supper nice, friendly and polite staff, easy check-in, our suite was available and we had an early check-in, such beautiful suites with highest quality furniture overlooking the marina, a very nice garden, delicious breakfast, they also deliver warm fresh out of oven to your room before you wake up, ….
While the property is like a quaint country side with lots of flowers and meadows, the facilities themselves were like a step up from camping. We stayed in a suite with a nice peekaboo view however, the room was not cleaned even once in the 4 days we stayed. We asked numerous times to have it cleaned to come back to it in the same state. Our plumbing went at one point and they gave us another room (which was still dirty from the last guest) to use the washrooms. When we came back to our room, all of our soap was gone and toilet not fixed. There were large ants all over the room and the "warm muffins" they say they leave you in a basket were mini bite sized snacks left in a soggy paper bag that you got lunches in back in the 80's. It felt like a pity muffin. The "4-diamond" restaurant was more like a 1-pebble with an extremely overpriced menu for subpar service. Do not recommend.

Hastings House is a beautiful property. The only hiccup was the TV in our room wasn’t working due to a faulty cable box. Unfortunately the cable box could not be switched out. The only available rooms had not been cleaned. We were told this right after we checked in, as we checked out the TV right away. Fortunately the Manager (Allan), made everything right and arranged for another room to be cleaned prepared for us. It was ready by the time we finished dinner. We were also upgraded to one of the newer air conditioned units; which was greatly appreciated as this was during a heatwave. The staff are all very efficient and helpful. A Fantastic place to stay!
Gorgeous property. We stayed at one of the Hillside suites and the setup and amenities are very nice. The real disappointment is the restaurant. The menu reads like it hasn’t been changed in decades (think escargot). In the right hands old fashioned can be amazing but unfortunately, there is no finesse to the food, which at the price point is really unforgivable. For example the scallops and prawns - served with a heaping pile of bland caesar salad and the kind of overly salted matchstick fries that were really trendy in the 90’s. Why? Other dishes though less mysterious in their design were also disappointing. It’s a shame because the grounds are serene and well kept.
