One-bedroom suites feature full kitchens with a fridge, stove, and microwave, along with separate living areas and sofa beds. Some suites have multiple balconies with views facing south, west, or northeast.

Complimentary Breakfast

Guests enjoy a free hot buffet breakfast served daily from 7:00 AM to 10:30 AM. The selection includes cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit, toast, muffins, hash browns, juice, coffee, and tea.

Leisure & Nearby Attractions

The hotel is a 3-minute walk from the Royal BC Museum and IMAX Theatre, and a 5-minute walk from the Victoria Conference Centre. Beacon Hill Park, with trails and a petting zoo, is 1.5 km away. The BC Legislature, open for tours, overlooks the Inner Harbour. Ogden Point Breakwater, an 800-meter waterfront walkway with a lighthouse, is nearby.

Local Events

Annual events include the Victoria Film Festival, showcasing over 100 films, and the Victoria Symphony Orchestra's performances on a floating stage in the Inner Harbour. The Dragon Boat Festival features races from Laurel Point to the Empress Hotel, along with live music and food vendors.

Services & Amenities

The hotel provides free underground and surface parking, free local calls, and a seasonal outdoor heated pool. Pet-friendly rooms are available, and the 24-hour front desk assists with local recommendations. Complimentary newspapers (Times Colonist and Globe and Mail) are offered daily.

“This downtown Victoria hotel strikes me as a particularly solid choice. The inclusion of a full hot breakfast makes it more appealing, and its location near the Parliament Building simplifies getting around. I think it's a good value, particularly given the costly neighborhood.”
