Top Saanich Core Hotel Reviews

Hotel Rialto

10/10 Excellent

"Staff are friendly and courteous. From the time we checked in to the time we checked out they were all super helpful and guided us to the fun places to visit and the fine restaurants in the area. Hotel is spotless and located in a very central area. Our deep and sincere gratitude to all the staff at Rialto who made our trip pleasant and welcoming. Will definitely stay at Rialto during our next visit!!"

Chateau Victoria Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous little apartment in great location to the harbour and a short down hill 1 block walk to the BC Ferries shuttle bus for transport to Vancouver. Apartment had a bedroom plus another bed in the living area as well as a couch. Found the second bed in living room a bit odd as we had booked a 1 bedroom apartment for 2 people. Microwave, sink and small fridge handy to have. Great for families. Restaurant upstairs has fine dining and was very good"

The Oswego Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room is large, bright, clean, well laid out and the bed is very comfortable. The kitchenette was well stocked with everything we needed, The staff at the front desk, especially the two young New Zealanders, were always friendly and helpful, In addition, we also enjoyed the Aegir Room, the in house restaurant. I had their sea food chowder and it was the best chowder I have ever had and I have tried many."

Royal Scot Hotel & Suites, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"I always stay at the Royal Scot when I visit Victoria. It's surprisingly quiet and low key, but only one block away from the water and from the Parliament buildings. It's cozy and friendly, but not TOO friendly. I can't recommend it more highly."
