Review of the Abigails Bed Breakfast Hotel Victoria
January 18, 2012
Lovely boutique bed and breakfast hotel tucked away right on the outskirts of
downtown, so you're in close proximity to all Victoria's central attractions,
theatres, and restaurants. We stayed in one of the fireplace rooms with a claw
foot tub which had a rain can shower head. The shower was divine, and the tub
big enough for two to soak in. The fireplace was double-sided, so could be seen
from the bedroom and bathroom. There was no limit on the number of fire logs
provided. The bed and linens were so comfortable. Good selection of DVDs, games
and books if you're looking for ways to pass the time. The staff were courteous
and couldn't do enough to ensure our stay was comfortable. The evening appies
were like a small meal, and the breakfasts were generous and tasty. They will
serve breakfast in bed for a small additional fee, which they actually waived
when they learned it was my husband's birthday. An ideal location for a special
occasion or romantic retreat.

We stayed for two nights as a romantic get-away for my husband's 50th birthday.
Our room was in the Coach House, so it was quiet and private. The room itself
was spacious enough, and well appointed, but the decor of both the room and the
bathroom was very dated. It looked like the original decor from when the rooms
were built, and the fixtures in the bathroom were a bit tired and worn. For the
price of the room, I had expected everything to be absolutely top notch, so was
a bit disappointed in that regard. On the positive side, the location is
excellent, grounds are very nice and the staff, service, and breakfast were all
very good. I feel that for the price, the value wasn't really there and will
definitely try other hotels in the Victoria area rather than return to Abigails
on our next visit.Review of the Abigails Bed Breakfast Hotel Victoria

Not great, not bad but OK. The room itself was tiny! We had a room in the coach
house and it was so small that even with only the two of us, it felt a little
claustrophobic. The bathroom was so small the door and the shutters in the
bathroom could not be open at the same time. The service and staff was great but
the breakfast, once again was just OK.

this by far is the most romantic hotel in Victoria! Beautifully decorated, and
very quiet considering it is a small boutique type hotel. We had the 'honeymoon
suite' and it was such a wonderful experience with a small fireplace and huge
poster bed. The room was exquisitely decorated and kept to the age and style of
the hotel. There is no dining for evening, but the 'cozy library ' downstairs is
set up so that guests can linger and have a drink before setting off to enjoy
many restaurants with walking distance. Later on one can come back and enjoy a
brandy before heading up to the room. The breakfasts are complimentary and are
full of fresh baked pastries, coffee, juices and a choice of a cooked breakfast. |
