The price is definitely right for a longer stay on a budget. However, there were
just too many issues of maintenance to make this a place we would return to. We
didn't go in expecting the kind of lodging you get at a 3 start hotel and so the
'dirty' carpets (really just old, ground in stains and dirt) were not a
surprise. Broken light fixtures, burnt out bulbs, key cards that don't work
(machine was broken) and, the last straw, a definitely broken hide-a-bed which
we had to jury-rig ourselves in order to be able to sleep on it all added up to
just too much inconvenience. The kitchen is adequate and having a separate
bedroom made for a roomy stay. Didn't find it too noisy and the convenient
parking was great and a big attraction for us because we were coming and going
lots. Good location near Galloping Goose Trail was nice. Starbucks very close is
nice. No issues with odours from the KFC. Staff worked hard to be very helpful
and friendly and would have made up for all the minor inconveniences but for
that "last straw".

The Blue Ridge Inn in Victoria was a very nice. The rooms are a good size and
ours came with a mic. and frdge at no extra charge. The front desk staff were
very friendly and solved a couple of small concerns very quickly for us. The
indoor pool and sauna were exceptional, as well as kept very clean. Convenient
location as it was quick to get to Downtown, Esquimalt, or out to Sydney. I
would definitely stay there again.

Nice hotel, but it’s still a bit out of town, you’ll need a bus to go to town or
half an hour walk at least. The rooms are well cleaned, there is no breakfast.
We used it, because we needed to take the ferry early, in that case it’s a great
option, we couldn’t use an breakfast anyhow because of the early departure,
meanwhile there a enough options to drive trough. It’s not the best neighborhood
if you’re looking for nice surroundings; in the middle of car sales spots, but
with the bus you’re in town quick and you’re quick out of town, and the desk is
24h serviced.

Noisy but otherwise OK for the price
If you have a very light sleep, I wouldn’t recommend it as it is quite noisy.
The room was clean, they have friendly staff and they have a swimming pool that
was a plus for the children

Victoria can be a pricey place to stay, so we took a chance on this hotel -
about the cheapest we could find online. It turned out to be a winner. The room
was spacious and clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the indoor pool
was the warmest I’ve ever been in. The hotel is also just across the street from
a mall, which is handy. And it is not difficult to get to from the inner harbor
- just catch a bus on Douglas Street and it’s about 2 miles. All in all, this is
a great place to stay if your budget doesn’t stretch to the Empress!
If the weather is good, take the bus out to Fort Rodd and check out the
historical site - fantastic views across the water.

Great value! Simple rooms, good location, friendly staff, warm pool, and free

We definitely enjoyed our stay in this motel. The rooms were very clean with no
broken fixtures or any deficiencies. The price and location were perfect for our
family. WE'll stay at this motel again next time we visit Victoria.

We stayed overnight, comfortable room, clean and spacious. Our room was not
close to the main street and was quiet. Parking space in front of the room.
Children liked the swimming pool. Very helpful young gentleman at the reception.
Beware of KFC next to the hotel! A little far to the centre of Victoria -you
have to take a car or a bus.

Clean, close to all amenities, bus stops nearby, friendly staff. The pool
actually is great. Certainly not fancy, but good value, Helpful, friendly staff
Easy access to central Victoria (by car or public transport, and not that far to
walk, either) Felt safe
Easy parking
Opposite shopping mall (great for entertaining young kids if all else fails!
There's a Toys R Us there as well as a food hall)
Has a swimming pool - really well maintained
Has a laundry room - great for families

Our daughter in law suggested this place to stay as we were in Victoria for the
one night, we booked online and arrived and were greeted by friendly staff, the
room was decent for the price and it was fairly quiet, we asked to be put on the
first floor, there was a fridge and microwave and the room was good for $57.00
You can't beat this price if you are looking for economy here. Close to a lot of
restaurants and downtown was 10 minute away by car.
