new updated ice machine on the 1st floor, magnifying mirror in the bathroom, spacious shower with large rain shower head

Processing credit card took ages, would’ve preferred more efficient handling!!! Non-functional elevator was just an inconvenience, disrupting our arrival!!! Parking arrangements could be communicated better to avoid confusion!!!

Unexpected charm in a noisy stay

The location was fantastic, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The king suite was beautifully renovated, providing a cozy escape amidst the vibrant atmosphere.

Unfortunately, being on the first floor meant I could hear the club music and the frequent noise from the ice machine, which disrupted my peace at night.

The hotel’s amenities were impressive, yet

the parking situation was inconvenient. While the room itself offered great views, and the staff was exceptionally accommodating, navigating to the parking garage was a hassle. It’s a great choice if you don’t mind a little extra effort to park.

The Queen Room with Two Queen Beds was really comfy. Beds are super nice and the room was spacious. We loved the big fridge and having a microwave was a game changer for leftovers. The air conditioning was a bit loud, which was actually fine for us—it drowned out any outside noise. It also had a safe for valuables. They kept it clean and fresh every day. No complaints on the room, honestly.

The Strathcona Hotel provides a lively atmosphere in a prime downtown location, close to many attractions. The rooms are charming but a bit cramped, and noise from nearby nightlife can be an issue. Still, the friendly staff and convenient amenities make it worthwhile.

I had a nice time with my sisters. the breakfast was actually pretty decent! We were also thrilled with the option to have mobility scooters delivered effortlessly. However, the room looked smaller than advertised. I’d definitely come back!

An Unforgettable Stay with Amazing Hospitality!

I had a fantastic four-night stay in a newly renovated queen room! The staff went above and beyond, especially with room upgrades for special occasions. The onsite bar provided vibrant nightlife, making evenings enjoyable. Pro tip, inquire about room amenities before arrival for extra convenience.

Location fantastic for exploring. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby, including one with happy hour. Air conditioning too loud at night.

i recently stayed here for a wedding celebration and had a fantastic time. the location was perfect for exploring victoria, with easy access to the waterfront and nearby attractions. the staff was incredibly attentive and made our experience truly memorable.

the air conditioning was too loud.

I recently visited Strathcona for two nights, enjoying the charming atmosphere and attentive staff. The location truly excelled, right in downtown Victoria, making it easy to explore. The only downside was the air conditioning, which turned out to be a bit loud. Overall, a delightful stay!

We had a wonderful stay, enjoying the Games Room with its lively atmosphere and accessible Wi-Fi. The friendly staff made our experience comfortable, especially since we were traveling with our little baby. The cleanliness and thoughtful accommodations were a real plus!

My kids wished for a play area. Having more kid-friendly amenities would make it even better for families staying here.

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing.

The location is a dream—just a short stroll to the harbor with views that truly take your breath away! Plus, the staff were so welcoming, making our stay feel like home.

recommend ❤️❤️

It was just a fitting option for a getaway in Victoria with extraordinarily good value for money. The staff at the front desk were extremely professional, friendly, and helpful, which made our stay more pleasant. Consider asking for a room on a lower floor if you have mobility issues.
