We found this hotel by looking for cheap deals in downtown victoria and have been nicely surprised by the quality of the hotel. Yes, the hotel is old so it doesn't have all the creature comforts or the really nice feel of most modern north american hotels, but it is clean and has your basic amenities and a comfortable bed....

My girlfriend and I stayed here on a weekend Staycation to Vic. I know the pubs/clubs/bars in the Hotel better than the hotel and was surprised at how affordable it was for its proximity to DT and also its flavour. Its a great venue featuring a bunch of really cool pubs/ bars. The sticky wicket is a great pub and... More

The Strath seems to be the party hotel for the under 30's. Three bars and lots of noise. Street Prostitutes seem to use this hotel as their place of doing business or picking up business. Partying in the halls and rooms - just horrible. Drug deals and users were frequentyl seen outside of main entrance. Police seemed to be outside... More

The Strathcona is old, but clean and central! My husband and I have stayed there many times over the years either for business or a week-end away. We booked a SPECIAL which is advertised on their website. $79 per night for Queen bed. They give you free parking, free breakfast and a $20 Food/Beverage Cert to be used on your... More

The only problem was the noise. We were quite close to the lift and all night we could hear people coming back including a girl... More

Well, tried to get a drink here about 5pm local time but we were rushed up and down so much that we decided not to bother. We stayed in the hotel last year which was clean and fine and quirky and interesting but the staff so utterly lacking in charm checking in and completely unhelpful about the paid parking arrangements...

We stayed in the Strathcona Hotel in December. We chose it because it was a good price and centrally located. I have mixed feelings. The room was clean, came with a decent breakfast in the morning and a great location. The problem was we didn't know it was the place to party in Victoria. Sleep between midnight and 2 AM... More

Not the most exciting room, very quaint & small, but nice. View out window was of a wall 15' away. Very centrally located within walking distance of all the attractions downtown. Several fun bars in this hotel, all worth checking out. Cheapest place in town without reservation! I'd stay again. More

Woke up with bed bug bites all over my legs and abdomen. More
