Double Tree by Hilton in downtown Victoria is perfectly located for anyone wishing to explore the city on foot, bus or bike. Less than a block off Douglas, I would have expected to be disturbed by traffic noise at night, but the soundproofing in our corner unit was excellent.
Although there is no pool, sauna or hot-tub, there is apparently a gym, and there is a Starbuck's connected to the lobby, so this might not be number one on your list if you're travelling with your family. I would, however, highly recommend this hotel to couples and business travellers. The staff were particularly polite, helpful and courteous here, and it went a long way in forming my opinion.
Be warned, vehicle drivers, this hotel offers valet parking only, and there is an additional charge per night of about $30 for parking. An unfortunate trend that seems to have befallen most of the major hotels in Victoria and Vancouver.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel, and I will come back again!
