Guest Review of the Harbour Towers Hotel Victoria
29 September 2011
We stayed here for one night after visiting the
beautiful Butchart Gardens. I will agree with the other
reviewers that say the place is in need of an update.
First, there isn't any air conditioning, so it was
uncomfortably hot all afternoon and evening in our room
and made it difficult for us to sleep. Also, the room is
pretty plain, nothing decorative about it at all. Our
view from out the window was mostly of the roof, but we
could see a bit of the harbour and the sunrise the next
day. Two things that were outstanding were dining at
Vic's restaurant downstairs and being able to walk to
the Blackball Ferry the next day since we had to leave
our car overnight there in order to catch an early
departure back to the US. Overall, the room was very
clean, staff friendly and helpful, but we would think
twice about staying here in the summer.

This hotel is steps away from downtown Victoria, which
is nice. The look and feel of this place reminds me of
an hotel stuck in the early 80's...Chairs, couch and
duvet are definitely 30+ years old. If it is hot or
muggy, forget about being "cool" in this hotel, it is
non-existent. They have a nice gym, but who wants to
train in a WARM gym, you will dehydrate without even
exercising in minutes. Too bad because the location is
very nice...but the magic of the first date is gone.
Good bye Harbour Towers.

The location is great as you can walk anywhere downtown
from the hotel. The rooms were clean but very dated; old
furniture, carpets, TV, etc.
We appreciated the clean spa (hot tub and pool) but it
is in the basement and doesn't have much character.

Quiet little hotel on the edge of the cities core. Needs
a little updating and maybe a good cleaning. Overall not
a bad place to lay your head. |
