Great location. Check in was pleasant and quick. Its an easy walk to just about everything from here. The view from the hotel lobby and room were great. You can catch the little pickle water taxis just below the hotel which is convenient.

Spent a night here in a suite courtesy of my brother (a Bonvoy Lifetime Platinum member). It was absolutely lovely! I enjoyed being on the seawall and within a 15 minute walk of the main tourist attractions downtown. The lounge served up a decent breakfast and light evening meal. Would definitely return.

We stayed for 4 nights at Ocean Point. It is a $70 - $100 cab ride from the ferry dock at Shwartz Bay and slightly less from the airport at Sidney. It is worth the extra expense to get a water view room as not only does it face the harbor, but it also faces east so it gets the morning sun. The rooms are well appointed including a fridge and coffee maker. The beds are very comfortable. We ate at Lure one night and enjoyed the food as well as a fairly priced wine list. The views from Lure are as good as anywhere in Victoria itself. We watched some sports at the bar enjoying happy hour and the friendly bartenders. There is a Starbucks outlet in the lobby open each morning It is an easy 5-minute walk into Victoria where there are several decent restaurants and good shopping. It is a $7 cab ride or 15-minute walk to The Empress, which is a must to see if in Victoria. There are water taxis that stop at the hotel which will also get you there and several other spots on the harbor. We will certainly stay at Ocean Point if we return to Victoria.

We stayed for two nights at the end of August for our anniversary. The staff was very friendly, thoughtful and helpful. They sent wine and chocolate to celebrate our anniversary. We were so pleasantly surprised. The hotel is wonderfully situated and is within walking distance of many attractions. Also, the hop on hop off bus and the water taxi stop right by the Hotel.

Loved this hotel, it was so perfectly situated, clean, indoor pool and a jacuzzi to soak off our 12 miles of walking and hiking a day...it had everything. The rooms were super clean, if you can request anything before your visit, get a higher floor and request a bay view. We are Titanium members and forgot to ask before hand, but hand on heart we were too tired come 8pm to be staring out windows. We chose a 3 day bank holiday wekend, so it was busy (lots of small children and young people headed for university. We were very impressed with the concierge service / members room on 3rd floor where we could brew up a starbucks latte....and have both breakfast and a happy hour styled meal...which always had a soup and salad bar as well as fruit and charcuterie board, free sodas and snacks...enough to eat healthy and most nights we were too tired to go out, after exploring museums and castles, and different sectors of the city, I was so grateful for a free dinner, which was pretty tasty. Rooms were very clean, they smelled fresh and clean (great shampoo and conditioners of a very high standard, gym, pool, and hot tub all immaculate we lucked out with a blue sky sunny and warm week so lots of sun bathers sitting out on patio enjoying the great view. Loved this hotel, would have loved an upper front facing room, but will know better next time. Nice staff, nice chamber service, easy walk in and out of town!
