Which was AWESOME. Staff super friendly. Bed was comfy. Room... More

We attended a diving competition at the Saanich Commonwealth Pool and proximity to the pool was excellent - almost right next door. The food in the restaurant is always really good - including a kids menu. We had a poolside room which is highly recommended. The kids can play in the pool while the adults enjoy the sun just outside... More

HOWARD JOHNSON – 4670 ELK LAKE DRIVE, SAANICH [VICTORIA], BC. 25 APRIL 2013 But The Day Staff Service Was Helpful We liked this Hojo's pleasantly flowering entrance - like many of the Island’s properties - and a modest but comfortable lobby with friendly check in.

I stayed here for 3 weeks while in Victoria on business. The suite units are spacious and have full kitchens. The spa facility is not open early enough in the morning and the pool is seasonal so I didn't get a chance to try it out. The only downfall is the proximity to attractions.

I've stayed here many times with work. It's located about a 20 minute drive from The airport. I like that it's a 10 minute walk to the lake. They have a nice path you can run/walk around the lake. It's very popular. I think it's about 10km. The hotel staff are very nice. The hotel restaurant is good and prices... More

The staff is excellent, always greet me as Mr. Penner, even hugs, when I haven't been around for a month. Great hotel, great service, good food, great bar, however lately I found the beer a little too cold - (just kidding) Great location - Keep up the great work

We booked a 2 queen bed room online. We had my 3 lb chihuahua so we got bumped to a "queen suite" which had a queen bed & a hide-a-bed. That was not the best, but fine for a couple of teenagers. They didn't have a good designated dog potty area, but my dog is tiny, so she just went... More
