We rented both suites for two weeks in February to escape the frozen north. My wife can’t handle long trips anymore and I wasn’t very comfortable with the idea of taking my 20 year Autistic son through American customs. This means no to Hawaii, the usual Western Canadian winter escape. Victoria doesn’t get a lot of tanning weather in February... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at Isabella's for a week in May. I did a lot of research prior to the trip looking for a good B&B. While I found many nice ones I knew I'd found just the right place when I found Isabella's. The lovely, simple elegance of the place, combined with a great price and location spoke... more

We stayed in 'the Red Room' overnight for our 36th anniversary and found every aspect of it to be delightful. The suite, the appointments, the... more

A recent stay in Isabella's Guest Suites has sworn me off from all of the other excellent places to stay in Victoria. The apartments (suites) are immaculate, incredibly-well appointed, and you cannot possibly ask for a better location (waking up to the smell of fresh baking bread at Willie's Bakery, directly below, caps the experience). Let the huddled masses think... more
