I stayed for just one night while in Victoria on business in late April and it was a delightful break from chain hotels. Excellent local neighbourhood that was easy to walk to downtown/Harbour and to the ocean. The home is beautifully maintained and the rooms were thoughtfully furnished and featured a lovely basket of much appreciated refreshments. Hosts Bob and... More

Wonderful historic house near downtown in quiet neighbourhood. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs and each has its own bathroom. I rated the room as 4 rather than 5 because the private bath is reached through the hallway, so a bit awkward if you want to pop to bathroom in naked state. However, the bathroom is literally one step from bedroom... More

We arrived in Victoria on the ferry from Port Angeles and it only took a couple of minutes to drive to the John Lewis House. We could walk everywhere since the location was so close to the Inner Harbor of Victoria. The hosts had great suggestions for sightseeing and restaurants. Beautiful woodwork in the comfortable home. The bedroom was a... More

The John Lewis house is a nice little B&B located in a conveniant location close to downtown/inner harbor as well as other sights and restaurants in the area. More importantly, it is the place where my wife and I were married on 11/11/11. Our hosts, Becky and Bob were helpful and accomadating and even acted as our witnesses for the... More

The best thing about The John Lewis House are the hosts, Becky and Bob. They will do their best to help you. The breakfast is great. We felt at home. The room and bathroom is exceedingly clean. We stayed in the pink room and were the only guests at the time. The bathrooms are private but out in the hall... More

We are normally able to stay with friends in Victoria, but this time found ourselves without accommodation. The John Lewis House filled that gap admirably. It is in a very convenient location, walking distance from Beacon Hill Park, in the interesting and historical James Bay Area. Becky and Bob were very welcoming. The bedrooms and bathrooms are small but very... More

We are two couples travelling together, so by booking both rooms it felt like we had a private inn to ourselves. The bedrooms are at the top of fairly steep stairs, which was not a problem for us, but might be for someone with mobility issues. The bedrooms, bathrooms and private parlour for guests are all well appointed and comfortable,... More

We stayed at the John Lewis House and I cant recommend this b&b enough. Our hosts were fabulous!! Me, my sister and dad went for a long weekend. There are only 2 rooms so we had the place to ourself! Beds were comfortable, breakfast was good and can't say enough about our hosts!!! Walk to town was a bit far... More

Stayed for the first 3 nights of a tour, fresh (at least as fresh as you can be after 18 hours travelling) off the plane from the UK. This is a lovely old family home, within walking distance if downtown Victoria and we felt welcome from the moment our taxi (from the Pacific Coaches bus depot - the best way... More
