The Inn at the Union Club of British Columbia

The location could not be better, the decor is super nice and gives the old school feel to the place

This is my issue as I didn’t read the fine print, but make sure to bring smart casual wear if you want to use to communal areas! The fact I didn’t have this prepared (even though it’s noted on the confirmation email) is why I have had to vote it down a little pn value for money. I just didn’t have the luggage space for the required clothes!

Dated

The location is great and the hotel comes along with a nice antique and traditional charm, like advertised. beds are very comfortable and the bathroom is spacious, new and very clean. Liked the big closet with fridge with enough space for all your belongings. everything is walking-distance!

The hotel wants to maintain an upper-class-reputation, which is fine and appreciated. The dress code is mentioned several times throughout the stay, which was a little much as I am an adult who is put together professionally. Also, it would have been great to learn upon arrival that parking in front of the hotel comes with a fee, we got a ticket during the 5min check-in process. We didn't try the club as it was closed during our stay.

The room was spacious and the hotel is conveniently located walking distance from all the the attractions. Staff is nice.

The room and the hotel are nothing like the pictures. The bathroom is very small. The carpets, furnitures and communal areas desperately need a renovation. They do provide breakfast service upon booking BUT they require a ridiculous “dress code” to access it (I got an email just two days before my staying about that). The elevator is being renovated, our room was on second floor but no one even offered to help us with our numerous luggages. Parking is two blocks away and costs 20cad x day. Overall they are very pretentious without any good reason to.

No elevator and we were given rooms on the second floor.. We were helped with our luggage but we still had to walk up and down the stairs to get to our rooms.

It was a unique stay! More like staying at a museum! Love the lounge and library!!! The location is excellent, staff are friendly and helpful! Only small issue - no air condition, can be hot in the summer! However all worth it! As it was beautiful place as a base for holiday or work!

No air condition

Beautiful building is a wonderful location. Rooms were very comfortable.

We very much enjoyed our stay here. Didn’t realize about the dress code until we received an email, but it wasn’t a problem as we didn’t plan to use facilities beyond entering/exiting the hotel. Has a lot of charm to it and is in the perfect location in Victoria near the Harbour. Note: if you have mobility issues: it looks like after a few months, the elevator is still not functioning. If you are coming during warmer days, note that there isn’t air conditioning so can get quite uncomfortable overnight, but they did add a fan to the room. Overall a very nice stay!
