So glad we stayed at this inn! The room was perfect for our family of 5 and the proximity to the harbour and beacon hill park was incredible. We walked everywhere. Great lobby and very safe neighborhood. Would stay here again!

I stay here every time I visit family in Victoria. The staff is great and helpful. The inn is close to shopping, the Royal Museum and restaurants. It is also walkable to the harbor area and the Princess Hotel. It is very clean, free coffee in the morning too. Great value for the money!
