Review of the Accent Inn Victoria
10 September 2011
My friend and I decided to stay at this hotel based on the reviews from here. I
did not find the staff friendly and I did not like the rooms. Our room was on a
busy street and it smelled like stale cigarette smoke. When I phoned the front
desk to ask for a different room the lady rudely told me that there was nothing
she could do about it and that there was not another room to put us into. I would
much rather stay at the Travellers Inn at least they are more polite.

Upon arrival to the front desk, staff were super friendly and welcomed us to
Victoria and their facility. The check-in process was fast and simple. Upon
arriving to our room, we found it to be very clean and satisfactory. The air
conditioning in the room wasn't top notch, but was doable.
There is a ABC Country restaurant attached to the hotel, whereby the hotel gives
you a VIP card upon check-in, which entitles you to 10% off every meal you eat
at ABC Country. Directly across the street, there is a small strip mall with
great Chinese Dim Sum and other foods.
This hotel is situated approximately 10 minutes from BC's Legislature and the
downtown area!

This hotel is a great little place to stay in Victoria. The rooms are basic, but
they are very clean and the beds are comfy, and everything you need is there. We
were received very graciously, and we were happy to get an extension on our
checkout time, which saved us a great deal of hassle.
It is located just outside downtown but takes only a few minutes to get to all
the attractions Victoria has to offer.
We live on Vancouver Island, and visit Victoria frequently - we will definitely
be back!

I am of 2 minds of this hotel.
Great folks at the Accent Inn. They advertise themselves as a bicycle-friendly
hotel, which they are. They offer to let you take your bikes into your room,
offer towels, a repair kit and a wash-down station should you need it. All of
this is great. And they are 6 blocks off the Goose bicycle trail. The staff is
friendly and responsive, always helpful.
AND, the hotel is located in an incredible bicycle un-friendly area. It is full
of 6-lane roads and strip malls. The area is everything you don't want to ride
on as a bicyclist. This is fine if you are willing to ride the 10-15 minutes
back into Vancouver proper in the Goose Trail. As a destination to lay your
head, it's great. BUT, be aware that if you arrive on bikes, you are either "in
for the night" off the bikes, or need to get back on the Goose to go back in
town for non-chain restaurants and bike friendly roads and trails. Yelp &
Urbanspoon was no help in finding healthy food for us. We ended up with mediocre
sushi 8 blocks away (on the 6 lane roads).

I booked a night at this hotel at the last minute based on Trip Advisor reviews.
The location was easy to find- just a few minutes from downtown Victoria. The
parking is free. The front desk staff was very helpful. When I requested a room
not facing the street she immediately checked and made the change. There is a
computer in the hotel lobby for guests to use.
The only disappointment was the beds. An advertisement I read while on the
Anacortes ferry claimed that the Accent Inns were known for their comfortable
beds. Unfortunately this was not the case. They were very soft and worn. I slept
on the side with the most shallow "dip" and had an okay nights rest. If it
wasn't for the beds, I'd give this hotel a higher score.

I travel to Victoria a lot on business and my friend told me to try the Accent
Inns. I was very disappointed in what I saw and how I was treated. When I first
arrived the staff looked stressed and the lady behind the desk looked annoyed to
see me. I was checked in very fast and when i got to the room it was not very
nice and it stunk bad. I will never come back to this hotel again. The staff are
very poorly managed.
