Independent hotels in Vancouver Island, British Columbia

"Excellant"

"We enjoyed our stay at the Empress. The service is excellent and every employee we met was friendly and helpful! The concierge helped us book excursions and tea and answered any questions we had. The turndown service was an added touch that we appreciated. It was interesting to learn that the honey at tea was from the on-site bee hives!"

"It was a beautiful cottage on the first hole at Crown Isle golf course. It was brand new, and gorgeously appointed. "

"I was worried that with the weddings directly below, the nearby Symphony Splash event, and the busy harbour would mean that noise would be an issue. I am happy to report that it was very quiet, especially with the room fan on. The property has lovely walking paths and is a short walk from the heart of the action. We would have no hesitation staying here again. Watching the float planes from our room was unique feature."

"Loved our stay here. The staff was exceptionally nice and helpful. Breakfast was terrific. Room was interesting and fun."

"Parked the car then we walked everywhere. Such a convenient central location. 1/2 block to inner harbour sea wall. Great restaurants nearby, Nourish and Floyd’s for breakfast, Aegir for dinner. Staff were friendly and helpful, Jill was great. The hotel does not have AC, so if it’s a hot season, ask for the north side of the building. Fans are in each room which is good. Rooms nicely appointed and comfy beds. We’ve stayed here several years ago and would do so again. "

"The bed was comfortable, the hotel and rooms very clean. Staff were friendly. We had a corner room which gave us a beautiful view of the harbour "
