The staff are amazing! But keep in mind the roof top bar above sticky wicket, unfortunately it is very loud, until late hours of the nights and its directly outside the windows. But the staff again are very kind and extremely accommodating!

It was my first time visiting Victoria, and I stayed one night at the Strathcona Hotel. Although I arrived much earlier than expected, they kindly offered me a room upgrade and early check-in at a very reasonable price. The hotel’s location was excellent — within walking distance to the Parliament Buildings, major tourist attractions, restaurants, and cafes. Elvie and Ario, in particular, provided cheerful and friendly service.

I really only came here because everywhere I usually stay in Victoria was either booked or more expensive. Plus my reunion was at the hotel I think most of my class remember the hotel as a good place to drink underage. I was pleasantly surprised. Room is clean and amenity good. The only downsides were charging extra for parking and I was above the rooftop bar which was noisy.

Fabulous staff, clean renovated rooms, on a quiet area of the floor. Only complaint was not about the hotel but the adjoining rooftop restaurant that closed without notice before we could get there; we were hoping to watch the sunset from there but apparently sometimes they will close it early if they think it’s too cold.

Lack of communication. From expedia to the hotel. Failed to tell us i need to fill out a form for reposit. Became a debacle at 11 30 pm at night. Form was sent to fill out. However, impossible to fill out even being tech savvy. No % off for lack of communication on form or headache of pre paying and desling with fall out after. Raised our price after the booking. Would not reccomend at all. Not staffs fault. However, it is the fault of the establishment not having an easier streamline to communicate or send an easy form to make the flow go. Nothing but trouble and no resolution to make up for their lack of communication.
