Hotels near Sooke Potholes Provincial Park, Sooke

Our two-week stay was a great experience. The suite two Queen beds corner guest room was a great size and a value for the price. However, with the new soaps and conditioner pump bottles hanging off the walls, the limited space is significantly reduced for turning around. A wand-style showerhead would have improved some of these concerns. However, the hotel maintenance staff were accommodating and installed one we provided within ten minutes. Of particular note is the location of the corner suite, the distance from the elevator adds an additional difficulty for mobility-challenged individuals, as walking in one direction is quite a distance. The daily construction across the street also discouraged using our balcony or opening our windows to enjoy Victoria's spring air. We did not eat at the hotel pub as the menu did not appeal to us, and breakfast was not included. Still, there are various nearby restaurant options to satisfy our needs. The indoor pool was cool but refreshing, with our swim limited to no more than 15 minutes. A continuing challenge is the free parking at the hotel, as more is needed because guests compete for spots with the pub and construction workers across the road. Too often, someone would occupy the two accessible locations, and the rest of the parking lot would also be full. However, the front desk staff was terrific. We will definitely look to returning to the hotel in the future.

It is not suitable for a family with kids. There is no bathtub. It is not really clean in bathroom. The indoor swimming pool is small.

We recently stayed at Villa Eyrie in the Villa Aquila and had a generally enjoyable experience. The hotel has many positive aspects, such as an excellent restaurant. The room was well-appointed and comfortable. The view from the resort was amazing. However, there were a couple of issues that affected my stay. The air conditioning unit in my room was quite loud, which made it difficult to sleep at all. It would be great if this could be addressed for future guests. Additionally, I noticed that the room was not cleaned daily, which was a bit disappointing for a hotel of this standard. While the staff were quick to assist when I requested additional cleaning, it would have been more convenient if this was done routinely. Overall, I had a pleasant stay and would recommend Villa Eyrie if those concerns are addressed to enhance the guest experience.

The hotel has taken the initiative to upgrade, and the rooms feel like home. The kitchen is fully equipped with refrigerators, ovens, microwaves, pots and pans, making it very convenient to cook your own meals. The surrounding environment is very good, very close to downtown, very quiet, I like it very much. It can be said that the price/performance ratio is super high

We stayed 3 nights at Grand Pacific Hotel. Our room (5th floor) was amazing as we had a little deck from which we could watch the ferries come & go as well as harbor traffic. Through the trees we could also see cruise ships too! Due to staff shortage there was no daily housekeeping but they would bring up towels and coffee etc as required. We only ate 2 breakfasts at the hotel but both were very good! Especially the Avocado Toast !! The hotel location was perfect as it’s walking distance to many attractions and close to the harbor taxis too. Beautiful at night with the parliament lit up and the various fountains, horse drawn carriages and harbor lights. Definitely will be back.

We stayed here for three nights and had a varied experience. Check-in was swift and we were soon on our way to our room, we emptied our suitcases and went to pour a drink, this was when we discovered a half eaten burger in the refrigerator and a glass that looked like it had been dropped in a muddy puddle! In fairness to the hotel the staff were equally horrified and very apologetic. We were offered a room change and next day received a card and a bottle of champagne from the hotel as a further apology. We used the gym in the hotel, which is slightly odd in that it has a carpeted floor and no mats available for doing sit-ups etc. One of the lifts was out of action for a refurb (although there was no evidence of any work going on during our stay) one of the other lifts was frequently out of order, leaving just one in action and lengthy delays waiting to go up or down. We didn’t use the hotel car park, you can use one of the nearby underground parking lots or there are spaces on the road adjacent to to the hotel for half the cost of the hotel parking. It’s a great hotel in a good location, just the poor attention to detail and noisy guests let it down.

Definitely my favorite place to stay in Victoria! All tje special touches they do is really appreciated! Fresh baked cookies and a hand written note on the bed! Breakfast is 5 Star!!
