They have a check in you can do online but we checked in at the front desk. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Room was clean and a good size. Great location to all sorts of sightseeing adventures. Park in front of the hotel to check in and then there is a parking lot around the corner in/out privileges. Since the upgrades have been done it really is that much nicer.

The staff were highly exceptional! Things are never perfect in any hotel. The decor, choice of pictures, smooth check in/ checkout and amenities were well worth it! We have stayed in four other places in Victoria with beautiful harbour views. I will say this hotel seemed to have the easiest walk around location for everything. Beautiful heritage building and happy to stay there. Thank you
