Very average for the price, Location farther from
downtown than we anticipated but ample free parking a
plus. Has an indoor pool with spa tub, an exercise room,
and a self-service business center with high-speed
Internet access. Guest laundry facilities, a beer and
wine store in the parking lot and quite close to a large
mall if shopping is an interest

We had a room with two Queen beds for our family of
four. The room was very comfortably sized with nice
Serta beds. Perhaps our late arrival around 10:30pm was
a bit late, but the reception desk only had one person
so check-in was a bit of a wait. This resulted in the
clerk being very rushed (near the end of his shift).
There is plenty of parking outside the hotel, including
underground parking which is not well advertised. The
swimming pool in the basement parking level is a bit odd
but still nice for the family. The Shark Club Bar &
Grill is attached adjacent to the hotel I was able to
watch a hockey game.Review of the Sandman Hotel Victoria

Good location, very clean, family and dog-friendly;
information and service needed was provided but they
could have been a little friendlier (my only criticism)
but I would go back there again because of the location
and it was very clean. The bed was too soft and
apparently there wasn’t a choice of a firm bed. The room
was pretty small for the price.

Was on a part business, part leisure trip and stayed for
3 nights in a very nice suite with kitchen and sitting
area. I was near the bar/restaurant and would imagine
had the windows been open it might have been a bit
noisy, but can't say it actually bothered me much given
I'm usually up until the wee hours anyway. No complaints
at all about the room except out of the 3 nights the
internet connections (both wireless and cable) only
worked the first day for a while. I needed that Internet
working but to no avail.
The various desk staff I spoke with throughout my visit
told me there was no internet was because the hotel just
received a lot of guests (and I did manage to get a
connection again about 2 AM the first night), the next
day I was told it was because they were having technical
issues with their server and it wouldn't be fixed for a
day or two. Not much of a help to me so I had to check
out even though I wanted to stay a couple of more days.
I just had no faith they would get the Internet
connections working after it being unreliable for 3 days
already.
To be somewhat fair I will say they did offer to let me
use their office connection, but since I had my dog with
me, that arrangement wasn't too helpful as she would
have been a distraction as people came and went in the
lobby.
This was also the only hotel of many I stayed in this
trip (2 weeks of hotels) that charged me long distance
charges for calling toll free numbers. Even though I had
specifically asked prior to calling any 800 numbers, at
check out they would not bend and I had to pay for the
calls.
So, hotel itself was clean and nice to stay in and
located outside of downtown but still central, but not
having that Internet for nearly the whole 3 days and
being charged for long distance put a damper on it. I'm
afraid not having Internet is the deal breaker for me.

I have been there 4 times for work, stayed for 2 weeks
once, 1 week the other times.
The rooms are clean and normal. No good views, It's in a
business area not near the waterfront so 15 minutes walk
or a 5 minute bus ride - they have double-decker buses
and they stop right outside the hotel, $2.25.
Great place to stay if you brought a car, secure
underground parking, easy to find your way back to.
There is a sports bar attached that has average food and
service, lots of TVs, but all the good spots to eat or
drink are downtown.
