Who we are and why you should stay with us

The British Columbia Bed & Breakfast Innkeepers Guild was formed in 1993 as the Western Canada B&B Innkeepers Association, and renamed in 2007. Our members are all independent B&B innkeepers, and all are Tourism BC approved. The Guild is a professional Association of quality B&B innkeepers in BC, formed for education, marketing and representation purposes. Member inns must pass our Quality Assurance Inspection Program in several areas: guests' safety and security, property cleanliness, housekeeping, food preparation areas, and hosts' attention to service and hospitality. Each individually owned and operated member Bed & Breakfast promises you personal service and attention to detail, ensuring a memorable stay. Our members can also recommend other members, so you will be guaranteed excellent accommodation throughout your journey.

We strive for excellence!

Moyra Turner Hospitality Award

We feel so strongly about striving for excellence in hospitality that we annually recognize the member innkeeper who best exhibits hospitality, and who best promotes the concept of hospitality. Nominations for the Moyra Turner Hospitality Award require affirmation of exemplary hospitality by guests or other Guild members.

Moyra Turner was a much loved and respected founding member, who gave effortlessly to her guests and fellow members. Never seeing the glass half-empty, she was a caregiver who lived to please those around her. Moyra passed away from cancer in 1999, but will live forever in our hearts, and has set an example for us all.

2002 was the inaugural year for the Moyra Turner Hospitality Award. We recognize the recipients of this award, as an example of Why you should stay with one of our Members!
