Crest Hotel

Primarily known as the  place where VIA Rail and BC Ferries meet, Prince Rupert is a small port city with a spectacular location and has plenty to keep visitors occupied for a day or two!

Within the city, Cow Bay was once the one-stop spot for fish harvesters, who could tie up at the docks, and walk to any of the shops, cafes, or pubs and now it's the same for tourists and visitors alike! Here restaurants hug the waters edge to maximise the view over the harbour and offer fresh seafood and locally brewed beer. Nearby the Museum of Northern British Columbia houses exhibits on Northwest Coast peoples with ceremonial and cultural artifacts in a traditional longhouse. Prince Rupert is also the departure point for the journey to Khutzeymateen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary, where visitors not only get the chance to see these legendary giants in their natural environment, but a whole host of other animals from Humpback Whales to Bald Eagles.
