Location!!

We stayed one night and enjoyed it. The room was on the smaller side with no view but it’s modern and clean with nice amenities such as a microwave and mini fridge. The soap and hand cream provided are very nice. Front desk staff were kind and efficient. Great location right in the heart of the city within walking distance of most everything.

Old-fashioned elegance. Pet-friendly. I selected this hotel for a short (two-night) jaunt to Victoria, mainly based on location, value, and pet-friendly rooms (my Scottie dog is a fine road trip companion). It was a good match for my tastes. I like distinctive hotel properties that combine old-fashioned charm with updated comfort. Hotel Rialto excels in those qualities. The king-bedded room was well-appointed, clean, quiet, centrally air conditioned, roomy, and elegant. The location is within walking distance of restaurants, shopping, nightlife, and Victoria’s cultural activities. My dog was welcomed with treats, a water bowl in the room, and smiles from the friendly staff (they were nice to me, too). Like nearly every city in North America, Victoria is dealing with a mentally ill and/or addicted homeless population. The hotel’s proximity to City Hall (across the street) and social services means that there’s a greater concentration of the down-and-out nearby. I didn’t feel unsafe, but it’s unfortunate to encounter society’s failure in an otherwise charming city.

First, when I was checking in, they upgraded me to a better room- what a lovely surprise! The room was very nice, and the view was nice too. They made sure we understood how to access the parking area, and showed us some areas in Victoria that I was interested in on the map. If I had one small issue, it was that their pillows are very big and dense- not something I am used to- I likely should've asked if they had softer ones available. Everything else was FABULOUS!

Hotel was very nice, staff are awesome. Just parking issue. If the parking is full you need park outside however there ate lot of homeless people you should not leave any valuables items inside the car.
