Review of the Strathcona Hotel Victoria
Jul 26, 2010
Older hotel centrally located in Victoria. Rooms small but reasonably nice. Don't get a room overlooking the roof bar and outdoor volleyball area - very noisy till all hours. "Breakfast" = cold bagels, fruit, mediocre coffee. Pretty good value - other places in the area seem alot more expensive. Parking free about a half block away

The room is very small and very warm in summer; couldn't cool except with open window. You might like this place if you're age 20-30s as it has a roof-top sand volleyball court and bar with loud music until 11pm or so. Indoor hotel bars are rather boring; one of them, a hillybilly-hick styled bar attracts some odd characters; it has a statue of Jack Daniels outside. Victoria is pretty dull. You can get a good look at it in a couple hours of walking. Some nice architecture and port views, but not much going on. Expect to pay considerable taxes on whatever price you arranged.

The best thing about the Strathcona Hotel was the location and it was very cheap. It was 2 blocks away from the city centre and walking distance away from anything you need during your stay.
The only thing I did not like about the hotel is the fact that you have to pay for parking and no air conditioning.

It was an excellent location-a couple blocks to pretty much all the major sights downtown. The lobby was also quite nice and the room was clean.
Unfortunately we stayed at the hotel during a heat wave and it had no air conditioning. It still cooled off at night outside but the bars-yes they have like 3 or 4 on the property- were so loud we had to keep our window closed and sweated all night in our room.

We liked how everything was close by, could walk anywhere, beds were comfortable.
was hot out and no air conditioning, had to open window for a breeze then was noisy for the bar is just outside the window. also hotel has no parking and charged an extra ten dollars for parking.

bad smell at room entrance, we are disappointed with the room size, too small, no facilities such as fridge, microwave, even no table and chairs

The location was perfect.
They asked additionally 100,- CAD as a deposit, although they made a print the credit card. The room, declared as a "Deluxe room", was small and with old and used furniture. We asked about a quite room, have got very noisy, directly to the main street ( there was pub, the people on the street in front of the hotel were very noisy till midnight). Wifi did not work.

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. There is a pub located in the hotel and it is very noisy when it closes as people are loitering in the street (from about 2am-3am). The noise is only heard if you have a room overlooking the street. Make sure to bring shampoo and conditioner as the hotel doesn't provide this apart from an all in one bath gel/shampoo. it is very convenience location. and very safety. comfortable to stay for trip.
I think it is little small room for 2 people.
The location of the hotel is really really nice location, so I stop by the hotel while I was looking the beautiful Victoria City. The breakfast also really really nice!
However, in the 1st floor, there was pup (or bar), so every night about until 2a.m. my room was so noisy, but I'm okay because I was so tired after trip. Therefore, decision is up to your condition

It had a really good location and many different options for dining and nightlife. My friend and I really liked the rooftop bar/restaurant, although the weather wasn't really appropriate for the volleyball courts.

very good location noise pollution : traffic parking free breakfast : a lot of choice and food good"
Victoria's most entertaining hotel features the Sticky Wicket pub and restaurant, Clubhouse grillroom and lounge, Big Bad Johns Hillbilly bar and Legends Nightclub. Friendly service combine to make this a wise choice for your stay while in Victoria. In the heart of downtown Victoria, within walking distance to shops, the convention center, attractions and all inner harbour terminals.

It's a very central location in Victoria with easy access to lots of attractions like the harbor, museums and shopping. Rooms were clean, roomy, and comfortable. The food in the restaurants attached to the hotel were tasty. Once the car was parked, we were able to walk everywhere.

We were very pleased with the service at the hotel, its location and the continental breakfast. I did hear comments from people with rooms at the front of the hotel that there was too much noise at night from surrounding clubs but rooms in the back are not affected by the noise so I would request one if noise if a problem for you.

We found staff to be polite and friendly. Internet service was down the entire three days we were there so they made one phone call for us to Imax so we could check movie times.

If you want to sleep, do not, do not, do not stay here. If you are looking for a very cheap place to shower and change your clothes and don't plan on spending any time in your room, this is a good choice. Location is fabulous, we walked everywhere both days we were there.
