About The Old Courthouse Inn
The Old Courthouse Inn is a boutique heritage hotel in Powell River’s historic Townsite on BC’s Sunshine Coast
—a place to stay when an ordinary hotel room just won’t do. Built in 1939 as the town’s courthouse, jail and police station, this lovingly restored landmark now welcomes guests into seven character-filled rooms dressed with antiques and stories from another era. Every stay includes a complimentary hot breakfast of your choice at Edie Rae’s Cafe,
with Townsite Brewing, the Public Market, Patricia Theatre and Heritage Museum within walking distance.
Expect old-building character, a few stairs and rooms with their own quirks, alongside modern comforts—part of the charm, not a time-travel guarantee.
Come for a Powell River getaway, a taste of local history and the kind of warm, familiar welcome that makes you want to call Grandma and tell her you found a place she’d love.
Not just a landmark, but a destination.
