Wonderful stay and Ria, was exceptional.
Pros:

Ria, the hotel manager was exceptional - definitely the best part and there were many great parts to this stay. Location was perfect, room was quaint and perfect - a bit small - but that is the era. The bathrooms were shared but otherwise fantastic. The breakfast was outstanding and my kids and I raved about the fresh croissants. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Cons:

Nothing really.

We loved it!
Pros:

We loved everything – our host Ria, the hotel, and Barkerville itself.

The hotel is incredibly beautiful and decorated in a charming period style. The room was an absolute highlight. Even though the house is quite old and you can hear some sounds, it was always peaceful, and everyone was considerate of each other. The charm of the historic building combined with the warmth of our host made the trip truly worthwhile. We are absolutely thrilled!

2 nights in Barkerville
Pros:

The opportunity to stay in a historic building within a famous gold-rush town was not to be missed. It did not disappoint. The staff were kind and helpful. The hotel is sympathetic to the period and comfortably furnished. Our room was perfect, clean with a comfortable bed. There was tea and coffee with biscuits available in the lounge throughout the day. Breakfast was great, there was plenty to eat. We had our evening meal in the House Hotel Saloon just across the way.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike.

Staying here added to the ambience of visiting an old gold mining town!
Pros:

Great location, quaint b and b. Period correct with staff in costumes. Lovely people. Breakfast was exceptional for a continental breakfast. Tea coffee and cookies available all day. We expected tiny rooms but it was nice to have the parlor to visit with other traveller's. Very clean and comfortable.

Perfect Spot on Barkerville Site
Pros:

The house was beautiful. The bed was SO comfortable. The balcony was a perfect place to sit and start my day and sit reading a book at night.
The breakfast was beyond my expectations. Yogurt, fruit cups, fresh fruit basket, meats and cheeses, jams and butters, hot hard boiled eggs, WARM croissants and other baked goods. Juices, coffee and tea topped it off.
The bed was super comfy. I was able to have my own bathroom to myself.
The wallpaper and photos were a perfect touch along with artifacts around the house.
I was able to find a book on the upstairs bookshelf written in the late 1800's, it was a perfect read for one night.

The lady of the house was SO amazing and was there when you needed her if you required anything. Responded quickly to messages and was just and incredible host, making the whole experience truly perfect.

Barkersville it's self was amazing and the staff just add to the charm. I will bring my family back next year and enjoy it all over with them.

Thank you to every single staff member seen and behind the scenes, you really make the whole experience memorable.

Cons:

ONLY complaint and it's not even a big deal. The bathroom shower head i used had a decent water void in the middle and made for an oddly awkward watering experience. It just hit your head funny and the water displayed weirdly.

My mom and I appreciated the stay and experience of history.
Pros:

The uniqueness, history.

Cons:

No elevator, (for physically challenged) bathrooms in units, but it was very cool to experience the era. The long walk to the hotel from the parking lot. Have something to transport people that are physically challenged that arrive later than normal hours.
