I had a great stay at the Queen Victoria Hotel & Suites. The rooms were well-appointed, with nice attention to details, although the space between the Queen bed and various furniture pieces was a bit tight. The service was friendly and efficient, although there were some issues with false advertising on their website. The location was perfect for exploring downtown Victoria, and the dining experience, while efficient, had room for improvement. The facilities were well-equipped, making my stay enjoyable overall.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was superb, being on the edge of downtown and close to various attractions, but some service issues and dining disappointments impacted my overall impression. The rooms were comfortable and had a nice view, but there were some drawbacks to be aware of.

I stayed in the Studio Penthouse at the back of the hotel, which offered a balcony overlooking a part of the car park. Despite this, the room was quiet with essential amenities like an older CRT TV, coffee/tea maker, and in-room safe.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The room, although smaller than expected, was clean and tidy with a nice harbor view. The service was friendly and helpful, although the lack of a bar was a downside. The location was ideal for exploring the city's attractions, just a block from the bus depot and with quick access to many points of interest. Dining was efficient but the quality was not impressive. The facilities met basic needs with some room for improvement.

My stay at this hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were clean and beautifully decorated, making for a quiet stay, but the outdated furniture gave it a real 70s vibe that won't win it any recommendations from me. The service was a bit of a letdown with staff seeming indifferent and sometimes clueless, although there were a few pleasant and helpful moments. The location, however, was fantastic, just a couple of blocks away from the bustling Inner Harbor, providing a peaceful retreat. Dining left much to be desired with a limited menu and lackluster preparation, but the snacks were a saving grace. Facilities were just okay, nothing to write home about. Overall, a stay with some highs and lows.

The rooms were very clean, though they looked like they were straight out of the 70s with old, worn, and out-of-style furniture.
