Comfy and Convenient
A comfortable stay, walking distance from everything to do in Friday Harbor - no need to bring your car! Breakfast was plentiful and tasty - all vegetarian and mostly gluten-free. There's not a staffed front desk, so if your travel plans change, be sure to reach out to Farhad. Piano concerts were at 7:30pm every night, so we did not get to take advantage due to dinner reservations.

What an extremely pleasant stay at the historic Friday Harbor Grand. The room was spacious, the beds were dreamy and we had a complete mini-kitchen. The proprietors were most gracious, helpful and knowledgeable about the area and things to do. The gourmet breakfasts were amazing and the owner catered to my husband's many dietary needs. In fact, they bake, cook and prepare everything on site, featuring many gluten-free items. The owner's concert-level pianist evening soiree with wine was lovely and the warm, home-made cookies capped it all off every evening. I would highly recommend the Grand and will stay here again when we return.

This was my friend and mines first time ever staying in a bed-and-breakfast, and it was phenomenal. The owner was very very accommodating. The grounds were beautiful and the food was all homemade and delicious. So much less stressful then staying in a hotel. Who new? Would definitely stay there again.

We loved our stay at Friday Harbor Grand Bed and Breakfast. Mr. Farhad Ghatan is an excellent and knowledgeable host. His recommendations for restaurants and activities are on point. The breakfast is not only delicious but healthy as well. Fresh eggs from the on property chickens fixed with fresh vegetables, as well as a selection of fresh fruit and homemade breads. We had our own private suite and enjoyed our stay very much! The location is very convenient to downtown Friday Harbor. If you have a chance have a slice of pizza at Bakery San Juan, it is the best pizza we have ever eaten.

Nicely remodeled rooms. Deck with view. Quiet place away from the street. Good breakfast largely grown on site. A bonus was an evening glass of wine music on the grand piano. The only thing off was an odd smell most of the time. We kept our window open and it was fine.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Friday Harbor Grand B&B. The service was great. We arrived in Friday Harbor in the morning and were able to store our bags until Check-in that afternoon. Everything you need is in walking distance. The room was clean, comfortable, quiet, and has both heating and air conditioning. Breakfast was beautiful, delicious, and served with a smile at a lovely set table. We will definitely be back for another stay. Thank you Trish and Farhad for taking good care of us.

Response from Farhad on 2022/9/7
I'm sorry but this is a problem with Expedia and not our inn. If you had looked more closely you would have seen the pet symbol on the pet friendly rooms and the absence of the pet symbol on the non pet friendly rooms. There are also instructions directing you to call the property to ensure that you are booking a pet friendly room. Apparently you missed this.

Good location
We are not typical B&B customers, but we were hoping for more. The pillows were not great making for a bad nights sleep. Breakfast while yummy to some was gluten free with very particular flavors. We left both days to get breakfast elsewhere. The owner could not be more nice or welcoming. His recommendation for dinner was amazing and one our favorite meals of our extended PNW trip. The room was spacious and the location was good for being able to walk to everything in Friday Harbor.

This was a very cozy, friendly B&B. The breakfasts were AMAZINGLY delicious, cooked to absolute perfection by the owner, and served by him along with his helper. He was helpful in giving us a map of the island and pointing out key places to visit. We enjoyed our stay here immensely. (Gonna miss those 7PM cookies!)

Beautiful Friday Harbor
We totally enjoyed our stay close to town and quiet at night. We appreciated the clean well appointed room and tasty hot breakfasts. The owner was an extremely talented pianist who played nightly to entertain any guests who wanted to attend. He also was a wonderful chef preparing gluten free dishes. Delightful fresh flowers grown on site we’re everywhere.

Odd
When we arrived we were greeted and told to come inside but when asked if we were vaccinated and we said no, we were sent outside. We were then told by the owner that they were going to have live piano music in the house but we were not invited. He told us that we might be able to hear it through the walls from our room. All in all it was ok. They should really post something on their website to state their new rules on COVID instead of customers learning of it when they arrive!

B&B Owner Makes the Stay Wonderful
Incredible! The owner makes the experience unique. Gourmet breakfast with his own recipes. Cookies and wine in the common room each evening, while he plays classical music on the piano, and he's excellent. He's also the mayor of the city! Service includes doing all the dishes in your kitchenette. Absolutely remarkable stay. Not to be missed!

Lovely b$b
Lovely b&b -easy to walk downtown or to restaurants. The only odd thing is the piano music played by the host from 730-830. He’s very good but it’s right in the middle of dinner reservations. He seems a little miffed if you miss hearing him play. Also, it’s an uphill walk from the ferry-not easy ( as advertised) when you’re pulling a suitcase. We would stay here again-and get the sunshine suite-amazing bathroom.
