This hotel was perfectly located almost minutes away from most restaurants. Not too far from the inner harbor and some stunning hikes. For a weekend getaway, the Vic was a great hotel & staff were very kind

The mattress was really comfortable and great quality. The bathroom fan was noisy, and hope this can be improved. The staff are friendly and the facilities are good. We enjoyed playing the table football and ping pong.

The first room was not clean and smelled very badly of smoke. The second one was clean but still smelled very bad of smoke as well. However the desk staff was amazing and refunded us some of our money. The staff was amazing

It was a nice older hotel with a few amenities like ping pong, huge big screen and foosball. Rooms had updated rooms with new smart tv's. Also, a decent throwback dinner restaurant and a bussilin bar on main level. For an older hotel, not to bad.

Rooms were finished well and comfortable. My room had a sliding glass door overlooking the pool. The lock on the sliding door didn't really work. The sliding door only had a rolling blind, so it either had to be open (no privacy) or closed (no daylight). The lobby was overlit - too much lighting. There was a nice games room with a big tv, ping pong table and a popcorn machine that made good popcorn. There was a breakfast restaurant independently run (I think) adjacent to the hotel which was average and over-priced (but everything is overpriced in Victoria, right).

I was asked to pay 20 dollars more because I have a dog. I did disclose the dog info when I booked the hotel. and the fee I paid to Expedia should include the pet. Moreover, Expedia didn't tell me that I need to pay more for dog when I checked in. not feel good about this. where / why it was disconnected.

Good value and location, comfy beds and the shower is fantastic. I always request the back side where it’s quiet (there is some pool noise). Great amenities and typically easy parking (note: there is only ONE handicap parking spot and it’s at the back of the hotel. That’s poor.)

The property itself is fine, only one elevator - with no indication of it is going up or down. Staircases don’t all go to all floors. A/C doesn’t work great. The area itself doesn’t have much close by so plan to drive most places. It would be great if the restaurant had longer hours.
