Jen and Emma’s Local Favourites – Here’s Why We Love Princess and the Pea Hotel

by Jennifer Abbott | Jul 13, 2023 | Client Resources, Love Local

The Princess and the Pea Hotel is a wonderful destination for a mother & daughter getaway

By now, you might know that Emma and I love shopping locally and supporting the amazing local businesses in our community.

Shopping locally is essential for keeping our community thriving. We learned the importance of this during the pandemic – our local businesses stepping up and helping our community made all the difference.

The local business that we’re excited to shine the spotlight on this time is truly one of a kind and has a whole lot of interesting history – Princess and the Pea Hotel, located in Langley. We know you’ll love Princess and the Pea, too!

Princess and the Pea’s History

Princess and the Pea Hotel is in an 1870s building, which was nearly demolished before Sharon and Wally Martin decided to restore it in 1997. The building originally housed BC’s first pioneer hotel, known as the Traveller’s Hotel.

In 1874, the first pioneer family arrived in what’s now known as Murrayville and acquired land. In 1887, the Traveller’s Hotel was built by Billy Murray. The building was the first commercial structure in the new community. It’s been in use since and has always been a well-known landmark.

The community of Langley developed around the Traveller’s Hotel as European settlers arrived in the area. Today, the Martins are keeping the Traveller’s Hotel legacy alive, as the Princess and the Pea Hotel aims to be a restful stopping place for travellers to the Langley area.

Of course, Princess and the Pea Hotel is inspired by the fairy tale of the same name, and six beautiful guest rooms are aptly named after your favourite fairy-tale princesses and characters. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time while still enjoying modern conveniences.

Why We Love Them

We love that the Princess and the Pea’s rooms are straight out of a storybook. Each room is unique, charming, and cozy. We stayed in the Sleeping Beauty room, which is Princess and the Pea’s top-rated room. It did not disappoint! Our room was bright, spacious, and clean. We loved the open floor plan and gas fireplace. The service was incredibly personalized, and we felt right at home.

We also loved our morning breakfast. It was delivered straight to our room, and it was Instagram-pretty as well as delicious! Most dietary preferences can be accommodated with notice.

Princess and the Pea Hotel can host wedding ceremonies, and we think it would be the perfect storybook setting to celebrate your big day.

A Word to First-Time Guests

Princess and the Pea is a wonderful destination for a mother-and-daughter getaway.

We recommend making a day of shopping in Fort Langley, and maybe ordering dinner in. Enjoy your quality time together watching a movie, playing a board game, or just relaxing and chatting! There are many great local shops, restaurants, and wineries in the Langley area.

Princess and the Pea Hotel offers tours of the property by appointment, so you can stop by for a tour if you’re not ready to book a room. Be sure to call first, since tours are not always available.

							From start to finish Hear at Home Mobile Hearing Clinic provided exceptional and timely service. Jennifer Abbott suggested hearing aids that were appropriate for my 101 year old mother. The attention to detail was outstanding as Jennifer included a clip and cord that attached the two hearing aids together which helps to prevent the aids from being lost if they fall out or the user takes them out. This is crucial in a care home. Proper instructions for inserting and removing were given and we wrote up instructions for the staff with photos. The Hear at Home support person, Emma was very pleasant and helpful. I would highly recommend this service for anyone with mobility issues.

							We would highly recommend Jennifer and the Hear at Home team for all your hearing needs. My dad got his hearing aids from Jennifer over 10 years ago and my mom has had hers for the last couple of years. Jennifer is very knowledgeable, professional, thoughtful, a real pleasure to work with and always goes above and beyond. It was such a bonus for us that Jennifer was able to come to our home to for my dad’s hearing needs as he had mobility challenges. I recently brought my mom to Jennifer’s new office in the Delbrook Plaza which is beautiful, very accessible and has lots of free parking. Our family  definitely recommends Hear at Home!!

							I really really enjoy Karen Tyrell’s presentations. I used to work at Courtyard gardens in sales, and there were a few of the residents and potential residents with dementia. I knew nothing of it until I started attending & taking Karen’s presentations & training sessions. I do not have anyone in my life that has dementia but friends with parents that do. I may go back to work in a seniors residence so the more education the better! I would attend another webinar held at Hear at Home Mobile Hearing Center.

							I live in Richmond and over the 4 years of using hearing aids I extremely happy with the prompt service that I have received from Hear at Home.  I email Hear at Home when I have a question or need help adjusting my hearing aids and I receive replies back the same day answering my questions.  Further, I am able to make appointments at convenient locations and times to assist me.  In addition, Hear at Home taught me how to use the many features on the hearing aids so I can better utilize them so I can enjoy my activities much more.  I will buy my next set of hearing aids from Hear at Home.

							Jennifer was incredibly helpful to my mother (new client) and I on very short notice. today. She was warm and friendly, thorough and informative, efficient and very fair. We were grateful to learn new hearing aids were not needed, just some cleaning (which she demonstrated clearly) and recalibrating, following a hearing test. I would definitely recommend her business to anyone with mobility issues or privacy concerns or just wanting someone in the business of hearing and hearing support on their side, not beholden to a single manufacturer.

							The key piece of information I took from the Dementia webinar was the information provided about the difference between dementia and alzheimer’s disease.  I found it informative and would attend again.
