The entire guest home was very clean and tidy. Our hostess was friendly and welcoming during the tour of the shared spaces. The kitchen had shared space for guests to cook meals and store food in the fridge/freezer. There is a beautiful siting area in the lobby.
The room we were in had a thick piece of foam on top of the mattress. It was super uncomfortable and we rolled to the middle of the bed. I was quite disappointed in the quality of the mattress.

This is not the mansion in the picture. It is the home at the bottom of the picture. Very very thin walls. No amenities in the bdrm like no tv. Everything is in the common areas. You are sleeping in a standard bdrm with a tiny bthrm. There is no Continental breakfast. You have to pay $10 for a standard. Whatever they're feeding you breakfast. Bedroom was pretty.
Great place to stay. Just know there are no televisions in the rooms so plan on bringing your own entertainment if that's important to you. Additionally, the kitchenette was only a microwave, sink, and fridge so be sure you understand what you're getting if you select that room.

A lovely heritage building with a view to Craigdarroch castle from my room.
Beautiful restored old rooming house overlooking the castle. Decor suited the time period. We walked to a few different places within about 10 minutes and felt safe. Nice little chapel around the corner for church-goers. Could have used easier access to plugs in the room. Noted that there doesn't seem to be air conditioning if you are coming in summer months, but window does open for a breeze. Nice access to a kitchen for diy meals - breakfast included didn't look too appetizing, so we went out - plenty of good restaurants nearby. There are stairs up to the door and inside, but don't let it scare you, I managed fine walking with a cane.

What a beautiful experience! The place was so unique in many ways. The environment was so quiet and we felt like at home. My wife sat at a corner of the dining room and enjoyed the quietness with a cup of tea, listened to the music and looked out of the window: a lot of green! It seemed like every corner of the place was decorated in details with harmony, the flowers, the light, the furniture…
You should be aware that there is no elevator so it might be a little challenge to carry your luggages upstairs but the staff are ready to help if they are available.
We would definitely come back to the Craigmyle if we have a chance and would recommend to friends.
Staff was ready to welcome us for check-in and thoroughly explained process. It's located in a nice quiet neighborhood not far from attractions. Only thing I'd say is you may have to park a bit farther from the inn because it's street parking so space is limited, but it's less than a 3 min walk even if you end up with a farther spot, so it wouldn't deter us from staying here again! Would return!
A bit off of downtown, abt 1 mile. Cabs were cheap if you don't want to walk. Mostly residential area. Very nice and quiet. Property is in good shape and very clean. Staff was very helpful. There is a kitchen available for your use.
The Craigmyle was a wonderful place to stay for a few nights! Our room was cozy and spotlessly clean! The bed was so comfortable. We loved the fact you could use the hotel kitchen to make a snack or hot tea at night. The coffee in the morning available in the living room was a nice treat to start our morning. The added bonus of breakfast if we wanted for only $10 was a nice option. Overall definitely will stay again for our next visit to Victoria.
Beautiful old Victorian home. Nicely decorated.
Rooms were on small side but they were comfortable. Bed had nice linens and bed super comfortable. Our bathroom was very small with no counter space. The shower was very awkward. Had very little room to turn around and couldn’t bend down.
There is no host at night which I found strange but it turned out ok. There is someone there during the day.
There is fresh coffee available in the morning. You can have breakfast for additional charge.
Had a nice stay overall.
