Review of the Sandman Hotel Victoria
May 2, 2009
I came to this hotel with my family last week. The hotel itself is
clean, inviting and has been fairly recently decorated. The rooms were
also all spacious and clean, with TV, coffee maker etc. The pool and
Jacuzzi were nice too. We had breakfast at the hotel every day and it
was good value for money and tasty, with good service. The only downside
for my family and I was the hotel location. It was about a 20 minute
walk from the start of the shopping/sightseeing part of Victoria, which
isn't too far, but I travelled with some elderly family who found this a
little far to stroll to town! Taxis weren't too expensive to/from hotel
though, costing about 6.50. Internet access and parking available.

Very average for the price, Location farther from downtown than we
anticipated but ample free parking a plus. Has an indoor pool with spa
tub, an exercise room, and a self-service business center with
high-speed Internet access. Guest laundry facilities, a beer and wine
store in the parking lot and quite close to a large mall if shopping is
an interest

We had a room with two Queen beds for our family of four. The room was
very comfortably sized with nice Serta beds. Perhaps our late arrival
around 10:30pm was a bit late, but the reception desk only had one
person so check-in was a bit of a wait. This resulted in the clerk being
very rushed (near the end of his shift). There is plenty of parking
outside the hotel, including underground parking which is not well
advertised. The swimming pool in the basement parking level is a bit odd
but still nice for the family. The Shark Club Bar & Grill is attached
adjacent to the hotel I was able to watch a hockey game.

It is a nice budget hotel, especially good if you are travelling with a
family and small kids. Their suites are spacy and comfortable. We stayed
there with two little kids and used there kitchen (stove, microwave,
fridge and dishes extensively). So if you need to use these things by
chance, this hotel is perfect. The hotel is a couple of miles away from
the downtown Victoria core and it takes about 10 minutes in a car to get
to parliament building, harbour, etc. Hotel parking is free. The only
thing bad about the room we stayed in was that the stove was really old
and knobs were coming out.
The front desk staff was friendly.

Great stay, came from Toronto and wanted to have a solid budget hotel.
This exceeded our expectation! People were friendly, rooms were spacious
and clean, seemed to be newly renovated. Only 3 minutes from downtown, I
recommend it!

I loved this hotel. We spent two wonderful nights here.
The room was big and very clean. The cleaning staff did a great job. In
the room, we had a kitchenette and a small living room area with a couch
and a TV. It was very comfortable.
The pool is large and clean and the water was just warm enough.
The hotel itself is just far enough from downtown Victoria to be
relaxing and still close enough to enjoy the sights of the city.

I reserved a room, and was told it was the last room available, but not
that it was a smoking room..
Needless to say it was not a good stay and i had to air out the luggage
when I got home.
The lounge/restaurant is very busy at night. A perfect spot to have a
lively meal.
