Local Vibes, Harbour Nights, and Rhino Coffee Mornings
Right in the heart of Tofino, The Maq Hotel is equal parts local landmark, live music venue, and cozy stay. It’s got personality in spades colourful rooms, ocean views, and the kind of energy that keeps Tofino buzzing year-round.
And when morning comes (after a night out or a surf session), Rhino Coffee House is right across the street — ready with coffee strong enough to cure any case of too-much-fun-in-Tofino.
The Story
The Maq Hotel has been part of Tofino’s soul for decades from its roots as a local watering hole to its modern-day revival as a boutique stay and gathering spot. With its central location on Campbell Street, guests are just steps from the harbour, local art, and the smell of Rhino’s fresh espresso drifting through town.
It’s the perfect balance of lively and laid-back a place to stay up late, sleep in, and start the day with a coffee that hits just right.
