Hotel is lovely. Like visiting an old English property. Super clean! The lady on the desk was awesome. Ran upstairs to see if the room was ready early for us! Clearly loved her job! Rooms are spacious and clean. Look almost brand new!

The stay was quite good and the staff were also very polite and supportive. The only service that was not on the good side for us was on the 2nd day we had expected our room to be serviced without informing to any staff since we had to leave early so we could not notify. Only upon returning we found our room as is and the next day we told requested at the lobby for room service for that day. But overall it was a pleasant stay.

We arrived there one hour prior to check in time. The room we had reserved was ready so we were given the keys; we were immensely appreciative of that. Two nice neighborhood beach parks are 5-10 minutes walk away. My sister tripped and got injured during one of our outings and the front desk attendant was super nice in providing all the first aid supply we could have possibly needed. 10 minutes drive from Butchart Gardens. 3 minutes drive from a really cool farm stand and an additional couple minutes to island view park. 5 minutes drive from Sidney beach walk way. 15 minutes drive from Moses Point, a beach you will more than likely have all to yourself. 20 minutes drive from downtown Victoria.
