Top Vancouver Island Hotel Reviews

Red Lion Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"I would like to have known that the elevator was out of order so I could have gotten another room with no stairs or change hotels with no charge as my mom has an extremely hard time with stairs. The sink didnt have a tea towel, the pool was very cold not heated as usual, the kitchen cabinet was in need of having a screw tightened and the handle in the bath tub was loose. Sorry I have to give a slightly bad review."

Embassy Inn

8/10 Good

"We are locals and had a celebration to attend, so we decided to stay downtown. This is a basic hotel in a very convenient location in downtown Victoria BC. It is not a fancy place but breakfast was very good, beds were comfortable, and the room and property was clean and well maintained (May 2026). We enjoyed watching the horse trollys go down the street during breakfast, which had loads of food options. The dining area was spacious and clean and had a view of the parliament offices. The only downside to this stay was the room they had us in, #103, is above a delivery or pickup driveway of some sort. We were awoken quite early by very loud vehicle noise and subsequent banging of the garbage bin and other activities a couple times. So we were up an hour earlier than planned. There is always that room in a hotel, and we just happened to be assigned to it. Overall a nice stay."
