Wonderful Victorian property. Lots of stairs so if you have difficulty climbing stairs ask for a room on the second floor. Only bathtubs on 3rd floor. No air conditioning so 3rd floor can get quite warm. Great breakfasts freshly cooked but chefs choice so if you don't like eggs talk to them about options. Plenty of parking, Close to Oak Bay for restaurants. Lovely hosts and staff.

Carpet/furnitures are dusty, cleanliness is a concern. Molding smell in the room. Dim lighting. The shower room is a joke because there is a tub only, can’t even stand straight due to the weird shape of the room. Sound proof is bad. I know this is an old building but it needs at least a full painting and cleaning if you want to do business.

Needs a bit of clean up and a paint and repair in certain areas. But we realize that it is a heritage building and is an old property.

This was a lovely old manor house with Victorian decor to match! Our bed was very comfortable and the room well furnished. Some brighter bedside reading lamps would have been helpful and the Wifi was very weak in our bedroom, but stronger out in the hallway. The staff members were friendly and welcoming and told us everything we needed to know. The breakfast was generous, delicious, and nicely served. The location was very central; you could walk to downtown in 30 mins. A charming area of historic homes with some restaurants and stores nearby. We will return to the Amethyst for sure!

The Inn has a lot character and the staff were very responsive and pleasant to deal with. The common areas were very cool however and the furniture is generally uncomfortable to sit on. (The bed is fine though.) Our room would have benefitted from a comfortable sitting chair and a standing reading lamp with higher wattage than that in our bedside lamps.The lighting was generally on the dim side. The breakfast provided is excellent but we found it odd that while each day’s offering was different, no menu was provided so we never knew what was coming! The location is walkable to the City Centre in about 35 minutes but there are frequent public buses to/from the Inn (get a Day Pass for $5).

We loved the house and the beautiful interior decor. The room was very charming and the soaker tub was beyond delightful. Breakfast was delicious and very filling. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The only reasons we couldn’t give some things 4 or 5 stars is due to cleanliness. The exterior needs a good power wash and paint job, it looks run down. The interior has some maintenance issues and our room had some dust buildups. Some of the common rooms had cleaning supplies left out for long periods of time. But we overall loved it and would recommend for the price.

This stately old manor has an amazing role in the history of Victoria. The property feels like a time shift with all the old furniture and fixtures. The breakfast in the morning is a great way to start the day.

Don't be fooled by the pictures. It's terrible.
Terrible in every possible way. The place is extremely dirty, smells like mold and it was filled with multiples noisy machines running to dehumidify it. It's not a proper inn. Whoever is running it is absolutely clueless on how to do hospitality and hygiene. Room was very stuffy, dusty and with no ventilation at all. Bad vibes and a pretty high price too. Was extremely disappointed, with over 100 hotels visited (many of which are historical houses), I have to say this was the worse.

This was a beautiful property. Our room was wonderful, so comfortable. Loved the huge soaker tub. Breakfast was delicious and the whole experience was amazing. At check in I told one person that I was vegetarian, and without ever having to say another thing my breakfast was served as a vegetarian option.

Beautiful and Historic
Beautiful historic house, we loved our room and the breakfast was great! Their scones were the best I've had. Very clean and surprisingly so quiet even though it was a full house during our stay. We would definitely stay again. The exterior could use some paint and fix ups and a little updating to authentic restoration on the inside but it's still a beautiful house .

The house itself is amazing, having been lovingly restored by a prior owner. The breakfast was very good and the room was nice. But the outside is totally neglected, with no gardens, overgrown shrubbery and almost nowhere to sit and enjoy the grounds. The front stairway to the house hadn’t even been swept in a long time. No afternoon tea or wine and goodies. Instant powdered coffee in the living room. No interaction from the owners and the guests (the young lady who greets you to the home and serves the breakfast was nice). Wonderful neighborhood.
