Victoria Hotels with Parking

If you're looking for bargain basement accommodations then look no further. We booked this hotel and specifically requested a pet room at the back of the hotel as the front faces Blanchard which is a busy road and it was confirmed at the time of booking this could be accommodated. When we arrived, we were given a dark, dungeon like room on the front of the building. Going back to talk to the front desk, we were informed that there was no way our request could have been accommodated at the time of booking and they were all booked up so we couldn't move rooms. About 30 minutes after checking into our room, we got a call from the front desk saying that someone had unexpected cancelled and they could move us to the back. I found this irritating as the room obviously wasn't occupied when we checked in and they could have easily given us the room at the back. We did move rooms and found ourselves on the quieter side of the building in a room with old, dirty looking carpet, smokey smelling room (it was supposed to be a non-smoking room) and substandard attention to the room with paint chipping on the bathroom door and the bathroom vinyl surround peeling off the wall. Next time we will pay the higher rate and save ourselves the trouble and frustration.

This is such a fun hotel! It’s near some busy roads, a mall, and a bunch of restaurants and such, which I guess is nice, but it’s pretty noisy and you’re not going to get a great view from your room or anything. BUT! Where to start? The rooms are clean. My kids and I loved the comic book, stickers, yo-yo, and rotary phone in our room. The hot tub is a little small, but guess what? You can soak in it and keep an eye on your kiddos as they enjoy the indoor/outdoor pool and water slide! Inside the lobby, you can find myriad board games, ping pong, “bowling,” Wii, and even old school typewriters in which you can pluck out that novel you’ve been keeping in the back of your head. The lobby Coffee is better than any in-room coffee another hotel might offer. And speaking of the lobby, the staff here is 110%! I got what I thought was an automated text asking how my state was so far. I said “meh” because we had just checked in and I wasn’t impressed with the area. I got a response from a real person right away!She provided answers to my questions and concerns and even delivered earplugs and silverware and cups to my room later when I needed them! When I was teaching my kiddo how to use a typewriter, the front desk staff didn’t hover over us or anything, just let us do our thing. Last, the little restaurant (open for breakfast and lunch) has a killer breakfast menu and such friendly staff!

Close to the Inner Harbor, the view outside the window is unbeatable. The various noises of the ferries to Seattle at 7 am and 10 pm will affect your rest, because it is really just across the road. The underground parking lot is not exclusive to the hotel, so remember to record the ticket at the hotel front desk, and you don’t have to pay in the parking lot. The room is large and has two small terraces. The restaurant downstairs is generally good, and the room service is average.

I'll start with the good..... free parking, hot water, power shower, daily fresh towels & coffee, iron & ironing board, good staff, microwave, kettle, Keurig, fridge. Our room was OK. However, there is no elevator. The bed creaked every time you moved, the springs were noisy & when one rolled over, the other followed suit, you both rolled together it needs a new mattress & base. The pillows were lumpy and had no substance to them even when you used two. The curtains were threadbare & paint peeling off the walls. No safe in the room. Storage & hangers are minimal. Black grout in between the tiles on the floor (needs a scrub with some grout cleaner). This doesn’t mean it wasn't cleaned as there was no hair in the sink or bath from previous occupants that we saw room was cleaned daily with fresh towels. The sink was not in the bathroom but in the bedroom. Pool & sauna.....pool was warm, but it needs a clean - there were live bugs in the pool we were in it approximately 10 minutes before we got out as we were grosses out, you could not see the bottom it was cloudy. The saunas are separate, one male & one female with change room facilities we didn't use them we also didn't use the fitness room. Access to the pool/sauna/fitness room, you have to go outside, walk the path , and then re-enter the building. The on-site dining....The Loft great staff with good pub food salt n pepper pork bites were very the kitchen staff worked very hard. Live music most nights but not disturbed by it. The Coachman, we had 1 breakfast there, and it wasn't great. Apparently, the chef was Grumpy that day .... maybe that's why it wasn't great? Waitress was great. All in all staff, were great, shower was powerful & hot, bed was not comfy we won't stay here again when we visit next.

LOVE this hotel and wish to come back next time! Very clean, comfortable and spacious. There’s even a microwave in the room. Best location in Victoria downtown. Have a starbucks right at the lobby and a 7-11 around the corner.

In Victoria for a conference. The Empress was a most convenient spot to stay. The hotel is simply beautiful with a most excellent location downtown. The staff is very professional white being friendly. The site is very clean, with classic decor. To reach my room on the 7th floor, I had to take two elevators, (or one elevator and a set of stays). The room was large, very comfortable, with all necessary amenities, including fridge and Keurig. The gym, open 24 hours/day) has good equipment, but they had no wipes to clean the machines after use. They have a lovely pool, which I did not use. I

We stayed at the Embassy Inn last weekend. We had been visiting family in the Duncan area and wanted to have a chance to check out Victoria for a day before flying home. Check in was smooth, the room was a good size, clean and had comfortable beds. A very easy walk to Government Street, Chinatown, etc. We ate in the downtown area and enjoyed taking photos of the Legislature, the VICTORIA sign and waterfront lit up at night. Breakfast was included and had quite a variety. A very walkable area and a hotel that we will return to for future visits.

The location is very close to Inner Harbour so it is very convenient. There is a direct bus from ferry terminal to the hotel nearby. Just walk less than 5 minutes will reach the hotel. Bus number 75 and cost CA 2.5 per head. It takes about an hour.

Excellent location in the heart of dt, friendly staff, parking available for $20 per night

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.
