Solid 3* Hotel

The hotel was built in 1980 and renovated a few years ago. The staff was excellent, even though we were only there for an overnight. We stay in a LOT of hotels - from luxury for my business to 3* road warrior hotels that my husband stays in while he follows the wildfires for work. This one is a very good road warrior hotel. Our room was a 1-bedroom suite with galley kitchen, dining table, and 2 comfortable queen beds. The shower replaced a bathtub so it was big. There is a heated pool but we didn't have time to enjoy it. We didn't have time to enjoy the gym, business centre, or the common room with huge TVs and popcorn. Free wifi and parking in the city is also welcome. We walked along the Galloping Goose trail to downtown Victoria (about 30 minutes each way).

We were impressed with our stay at The Vic. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Room has been nicely redecorated, bathroom in particular has a lovely rainfall shower and great light up vanity area. We would’ve taken advantage of more amenities had our stay been longer but we were only there for one night. It’s also lovely having Floyd’s for breakfast on site. Definitely would stay again.

The hotel looked very newly redone andOur room was very clean, new looking and comfortable - very comfortable bed. It had a mini-fridge, microwave and a coffee maker. Great TV, air conditioning. Loved the flooring throughout the hotel. Very attractive lobby. Restaurant and bar attached. And we were very impressed with the staff! Ingrid on the front desk was wonderful and cheerful with everyone. Manager and other staff were very helpful and happy to help. We like the area close to the gorge

At approximately 1am on the night of my stay, a small dog in the adjacent room barked non-stop for about 20 minutes. I called the front desk three times. They did try to help, and apparently called the guest (who was not in her room at the time and had left the dog unattended). The guest told them she 'paid for the room and didn't care about the dog barking'. Was not happy about this, obviously.

A marvelous upgrade of an older property. Lloyd's restaurant is a hoot with entertainment figures for several generations on the wall.
