Hotels near Steve Fonyo Beach in Victoria

The staff were outstanding in every way. We had to extend our stay a couple of times as we were in Victoria for a family emergency...no problem at all! They were caring, considerate and kind. Coffee was fantastic, excellent room service with fresh towels and face cloths daily, quiet, free on-site parking, excellent wifi, close to restaurants, and the hospital. Price point was unbelievably low considering the value and service!

We chose this hotel because of the price, location and free parking. Although the previous reviews were in part not good. At our arrival we were pleasantly surprised - the entrance area is very invited. The reception was very friendly, we received some tips that have proved very valuable. The room was modern, just a little small. There was a balcony with view of the empty pool. Specifically positive to mention is the bathroom. All very modern, heated mirrors and a flat shower. By the way, with the car, it is just a few minutes to the center.

I had called 9 hotels prior to this booking searching for a suite option that allowed my mom and adult brother some privacy and no one being stuck on a pull out sofa. Chateau Victoria had a great layout option at half price of any alternatives I could find. In addition to that, the customer service agent I spoke with, Heidi, was a breath of fresh air to converse with. Unlike previous hotels I had called, Heidi asked logical, relevant questions, and listened and responded in a helpful manner to all inquiries that I had. She was knowledgeable, polite, and made booking a breeze. I will definitely book at this property again.

It's a cute boutique hotel with friendly staff. There's only one elevator and surprisingly it was always available whenever we needed it. You can park on the street (parking meter) or at the parkade behind the red bldg which is across the street (though we didn't check it out). We arrived around 6 pm and had free parking in front of the hotel till 9 am Sunday. There was a fruit bowl and beverages at the front for guests. We had dessert at the hotel restaurant and it was delicious! We were on the top floor and the room was very clean, but I found the pillows very uncomfortable (too puffy and can't flatten them down) for my neck. Unfortunately we stayed during Saturday night and it was super noisy till late at night (from a few cars speeding at the nearby street to some people being very loud) - maybe it's not like that during the weekday. Chinatown, lots of restaurants and the harbour are within walking distance.

We were traveling with our three granddaughters for a graduation High Tea adventure. We picked Victoria BC and the Delta Marriott and we’re very pleased. Our Black Ball ferry delivered us to Victoria before check in and the desk clerk had rooms for us. The water taxi from the ferry port/Empress stop took us right to the Delta stop with all our luggage. The Rooms were comfortable, the Club Room worked out well for our large party and the server in the bar on the evening of June 29 has the best customer service. Taxis were ordered, directions happened, what a great visit to Victoria BC

We stayed 3 nights at Grand Pacific Hotel. Our room (5th floor) was amazing as we had a little deck from which we could watch the ferries come & go as well as harbor traffic. Through the trees we could also see cruise ships too! Due to staff shortage there was no daily housekeeping but they would bring up towels and coffee etc as required. We only ate 2 breakfasts at the hotel but both were very good! Especially the Avocado Toast !! The hotel location was perfect as it’s walking distance to many attractions and close to the harbor taxis too. Beautiful at night with the parliament lit up and the various fountains, horse drawn carriages and harbor lights. Definitely will be back.

We stayed here for three nights and had a varied experience. Check-in was swift and we were soon on our way to our room, we emptied our suitcases and went to pour a drink, this was when we discovered a half eaten burger in the refrigerator and a glass that looked like it had been dropped in a muddy puddle! In fairness to the hotel the staff were equally horrified and very apologetic. We were offered a room change and next day received a card and a bottle of champagne from the hotel as a further apology. We used the gym in the hotel, which is slightly odd in that it has a carpeted floor and no mats available for doing sit-ups etc. One of the lifts was out of action for a refurb (although there was no evidence of any work going on during our stay) one of the other lifts was frequently out of order, leaving just one in action and lengthy delays waiting to go up or down. We didn’t use the hotel car park, you can use one of the nearby underground parking lots or there are spaces on the road adjacent to to the hotel for half the cost of the hotel parking. It’s a great hotel in a good location, just the poor attention to detail and noisy guests let it down.

I found the hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Not too far from restaurants or shopping centers. The room was clean and surprisingly quiet for a hotel. We really liked the bathroom. No complaints. Would stay here again anytime.

We regularly stay at the Red Lion Inn and Suites (2 adults, 3 children - age 4, 10, 12) as it is the most affordable accommodation for our family of 5 when we need to spend a night or two in the city. The proximity to everything else is great, and although you do sometimes have to park a bit away, there is always ample parking (you can always load in/load out at the front). Somehow, the rooms are always so quiet - we were there this time when totally booked out and still no noise. In the summer, the outdoor pool is always a hit with the kids, it's always very clean and well kept. We've never had any issues with room cleanliness - we run a cleaning service in our small community that includes hospitality cleaning contracts, so we are pretty fussy, too! I love that the floors are all granite, gone are the days of gross hotel carpet!! The staff have always been really nice to us, and have accommodated our requests really well. Extra blankets and pillows, extra coffee - no problem. Late check out, usually no problem. My only critique that has only come up the last few visits is the set up for couch beds/extra bedding. I am certain that a number of years ago I stayed at the Red Lion with some family members, and I ended up sleeping on the pullout bed and it was like sleeping on a CLOUD it was so comfy. It was a proper pullout couch bed, and I think there was an added memory foam topper. I would gladly sleep on that again! The last few visits we have been, where the set up has been a suite with either a kind bed or two doubles in the bedroom and a couch bed in the living room, the couch bed has been a ”click clack” style bed, where the couch cushions are the bed. The bed is not made up for additional guests (which knowing from hospitality experience, is probably so that guests can enjoy the couch during non-sleeping hours) so it is on the guests to fold out the click clack bed and make up the bedding. Though totally passable and clean as a sleeping surface, the bed is really not very comfortable. As we have three daughters, we usually give them the bedroom and my husband and I sleep out on the couch bed. We're in our late 30's and after a day running around with those monsters we are tired and old and ready to sleep! I've also found that the bedding that is included for this bed to be some what insufficient - both times including the sheets, one pillow and the brown insulator blanket (i.e. there are not enough pillows or a comforter). Also, I think a rollaway bed option would be great, and I'd definitely pay to have that option. This past visit we were 5 to a suite, king bed in the room and double click clack couch. We made it work because our 3 girls are happy to be cozy and share a giant bed, but if the option were there we'd loved to have had a cot to toss the youngest on. That is all! We will absolutely be back time and time again, but this is the one thing we have not thoroughly enjoyed during our last few stays.

We came as a small group for work retreat. They have spacious suites where we had 2 to a suite each with own bedroom and bathroom with shared kitchen and living room. Super location. Food is good too and front desk staff is friendly. Would come back again.
