This hotel has everything you could possibly want. Clean room with extremely comfortable bed. Indoor outdoor pool, which felt like you were rich as hell. Emilio will drive you anywhere in the downtown core and is funny, knowledgable and so polite! The front desk made me feel like I was " coming home" . Truly the best experience!!!! Oh and the Bee kind bathroom products are incredible! I will be looking for these to purchase.

Recently stayed at the Coast Victoria for 4 nights in March 2023. We arrived to find our room quite dirty. TOWELS: Nice size, large bath sheet style towels were appreciated. However, I opened 6 bath towels to find a nest of long black hair folded inside. BATHROOM: Worn out, old, run down, unclean, undesirable. The bathrooms have not been renovated since the 1950’s. Do not look at the pictures on the website as they are not accurate or current. HOTEL ROOM: The hotel room furniture was chipped, stained, paint was peeling off the “wood," it looked run down and cheap. The beds were very comfortable and the pillows were comfortable. ROBES AND SLIPPERS: These were provided in the room. The robes were standard hotel robes. The slippers were rubber slide sandals with an open toe. They were very uncomfortable and the sharp rubber edges cut into your feet when you walked. SHUTTLE SERVICE: We paid a lot of money for this hotel, mainly choosing it for the shuttle service, and we were made to feel like we were a problem and a bother for using this service. We were on our vacation and these drivers are working in hospitality and the service industry, yet they were sometimes unwilling, unfriendly and often visibly irritated to be providing a service. Except for Reid, he was excellent. To always be told, they had no time and were in a hurry kind of defeats the purpose of this service. We were always made to feel like we were imposing on them, all except for Reid. He went out of his way to accommodate us. SWIMMING POOL AND HOT TUB: You have to open 4 doors to get to the pool through the change rooms as the main entrance to the pool area is locked. It is quite grungy in the change rooms with rusted door handles, low ceilings and narrow hallways. The hot tub was hot, which was appreciated. However, it was full of scum along the top of the water, as well on the walls along the edges. The pool water was freezing and should have been warmer given that one wall is entirely open leading to outside. Too cold to swim in the outside part with the water so cold. The entrance to the pool area was very unappealing. The change rooms were disgustingly gross. We never once saw anyone cleaning in there or the pool area. It seemed unclean, as did the water in the hot tub. HOTEL STAFF: The housekeeping staff only work until mid afternoon so if there is an issue in the later afternoon or the evening, the guest is on their own to deal with it. There should be 1 housekeeping staff / maintenance staff on throughout the night to accommodate situations that arise. The shuttle drivers are also the bellmen… however, they don’t seem to offer any bellmen services with luggage assistance. They never seemed to be standing at the concierge station. We were never made to feel welcome in this hotel. The front desk staff seemed to carry a chip on their shoulder. We were never greeted with a “hello” when arriving in the lobby. They seemed to not care if we had issues or needed service in our room. Overall, we would not go back to this hotel. For the price, the staff should be more friendly and accommodating, and the rooms should be cleaner and more updated to this century. Old charm can be nice, as in the Fairmont Empress, but when it looks grungy and falling apart, plus is unclean and dirty, then it is completely unappealing and undesirable. We paid a premium price to stay at this hotel. The condition of the walls, floors and furniture was despicable, given the high cost they are charging. Unless they do a major renovation, I will not return. The pretty lobby and Blue Water Cafe fool you into thinking this is a pristine, high-class hotel.…

Thank you very much for your candid review of your recent stay at our hotel and for allowing us to respond. Your feedback is precious to us, as we strive to improve with every stay. We aim to provide a clean, comfortable, and pleasant place to stay, and we sincerely apologize that our hospitality and attention to detail left something to be desired on this occasion – this is very unlike us and certainly not the normal type of review that we receive about our property. At our hotel, we take upkeep and cleanliness very seriously, and your room should always feel fresh and clean. We fell short in this regard during your stay, and we will work together with our staff to do a much better job we will perform thorough checks before any guest arrivals. We agree that our rooms and decor could use some updates and we are working diligently on upgrading some hotel facilities later this year. Our shuttle service is a complimentary service that runs between the downtown core and the hotel and within strict limits to ensure both its availability and our ambassador's availability to assist other guests. The service is not meant to replace a taxi or car service to move around the city as all of our valued guests should be able to use the shuttle without delay. As we are a smaller property, the driver is indeed also the bellman and concierge. When it is noted that the service is being used inappropriately or when staff are being treated discriminately or unfairly, we can disallow its use to certain guests. Once again, on behalf of our team, I extend our heartfelt apologies for not achieving our goal of providing you with a top-notch stay, but we appreciate you staying with us on this visit.

I was here with my wife on a speaking engagement and decided to stay an extra day for a mini holiday. The speaking event occurred in the ballroom of the hotel. It is a nice space but the ceilings are low and feedback from wireless microphones to the speakers was very annoying to the audience. We were greeted nicely at the front desk. Parking underground was easy. We got a room near the top of the hotel but the view was of the neighbourhood and not the water so it was OK. I liked that it had two chairs to sit in. Many hotel rooms have only one chair, leaving the second person of a couple to sit on the bed or floor, if they want to relax and read. A small selection of tea and coffee was included with the room. It was very nice but only one example of each kind of tea was there, so if we both wanted the same kind of tea, we could not. The bed was spacious and comfortable. We both slept well. The bathroom had a Japanese style seat that is heated, and can wash and dry you too. It was noisy and I am not sure I liked it. I prefer bar soap but the only soap offered was liquid soaps in dispensers. Probably less waste but not my preference. The restaurant in the hotel is nice, cozy, had a nice view of the harbour, but was priced very high and only serve breakfast or dinner. We had to leave the hotel for lunch or mid-day food. For the price of the room, it was a nice place to stay.…

Dear CaptDrLarry, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It was great to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. We have single use versions of the soap / shampoo and Bar soap for those that would like something more preference wise, but yes, the soap dispensers do save a lot of waste. Anything extra that you would like to enhance your stay please just let us know - we are happy to deliver to ensure a great stay :) After 3 years of waiting, we do hope to be open very soon for daily lunch service once again. Perhaps in April or May . Thank you also for your comments highlighting where we can do better. We appreciate hearing about your experience regarding the microphone. We have removed that microphone from service right away. Your comments are very helpful in highlighting opportunities to improve our guest experience even further. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Stayed here 1 night with some kids. Got a room overlooking the harbour and an upper floor. The room was one of the cleanest I’ve ever seen in a hotel. Yes I know, the summer prices reflect this of course…. Underground parking and a bit of a walk to the harbour front but we also walked the other direction to where the large cruise ships dock. Recommended.

Nice friendly staff at reception and the restaurant. Room was clean and comfortable. Very much enjoyed the view of the marina and harbour. Access to the waterfront pathway was very convenient and made for an enjoyable walk to the inner harbour.

We have been staying at the Coast for the past few years. Typically a clean and tidy place to spend a few days or longer while in Victoria. The rooms have nice views and the facilities are enjoyable. Our recent stay was not par with the past. Value has diminished and luster not shining.

I had a lovely restorative stay at the Coast Victoria Hotel. It has an incredible view of the downtown Victoria harbour/ocean. The hotel also overlooks a small quaint marina. The pool is really great, as you can swim indoors/outdoors. The room I had overlooked Victoria and the ocean. It was a good sized room, but it also felt cozy. The bed was so comfortable. I also enjoyed the restaurant, it's views and all the staff there from cleaning, to front desk and restaurant staff -- all were friendly and welcoming.
