An older property but was reasonable (relatively speaking these days), clean, with a great bed and quiet, despite it sharing the lobby with a rental car agency. A little tricky to access off Douglas but was perfect for our needs.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Stayed at the Arbutus Inn during a visit to Victoria. Overall, it was a good stay and the room was clean, comfortable, and the staff were helpful. However, the location was a bit far from the downtown area. It would be helpful if the hotel clearly mentioned the walking time to the city center on their site. Great if you have a car, but less convenient for those planning to walk.

Disliked: Cleanliness
At check in, my room number was said out loud which did not give me a sense of security. Given I checked in alone and quite late and as there was someone else right behind me, it did not make me feel comfortable. The mini fridge was in need of a deep clean.

Having only a 12 hour stay, we didn't have a thorough assessment of the whole building, but what we did see we liked and would recommend it in future.

This was a conveniently located, smaller hotel property that was clean and comfortable for a 2-night stay. The linens were clean and the beds were comfortable. While there was no breakfast facility within the hotel, directly across the street was an excellent little restaurant named The Spoon which offered both indoor and outdoor seating and menu offerings that were well prepared, generously portioned and tasty. The staff at both the hotel and the restaurant were very courteous and professional. We qould recommend this lodging to anyone wanting to visit this area "on a budget".
