Spent 2 working weeks here, and found the stay to be very agreeable. Bed fine. Temperature fine. Sink, fridge & uWave worked. Hotel restaurant was pretty good. You will want to plan to eat out ~4/7 nights for variety. In-room desk was a little high for extended computing sessions. Wireless internet was reliable 89% of the time. (Lots of Skype... More

The Howard Johnson on Elk Lake Drive in Victoria, in my opinion, can't be beat! We've been staying there during our yearly vacation to BC for around 7 years in a row, and are continually impressed with everything there! To start off, it's location is very nice. It is situated right next to Beaver and Elk lake parks, and is... More

Spent two nights here while visiting family over Christmas. First, let me say that the staff were incredibly friendly. Our first night there we were in a room at the front of the hotel. We did not sleep well it was too noisy due to the traffic from the highway. We also found the beds a bit saggy. We requested... More

The hotel is on the edge of Victoria. It is a quiet location that seems safe. There is underground parking which is great in rainy weather. The rooms were clean and the beds very comfortable. Staff were friendly and a problem with our shower curtain was attended to very quickly. I would stay here again because I loved the location.... More

Stayed at this hotel while doing training in Victoria. Very nice location. As a single person travelling I felt very safe in this hotel.

If you're planning to stay in Victoria, beware that unless you are staying right downtown, there are many rundown ugly hotels on the outskirts. We were visiting family and someone recommended this hotel instead of one on Gorge Road. This hotel is very will located near beautiful Elk Lake Park and right beside the highway for easy access to almost... More

Thank you for your review. We are happy you came to stay with us. Being so close to Elk Lake is one of the wonderful advantages of staying with us. We also pride ourselves in having one of two outdoor swimming pools in all of Greater Victoria. Our poolside rooms are most definately the PLACE to be in the summer.... More

I stay here because it is close to my colleague's home and the bar/restaurant is a local meeting place for him. This hotel is great. I highly recommend.

The main building is traditional hotel with a 1960's motel that looks like a ski lodge attached out back. We had a junior suite in the back section. It was clean, quite spacious and well appointed, but the room was dark at all hours in spite of the sunny weather. Some people would not like the outside hallways and lack... More
