A flat-screen cable TV is provided in each uniquely decorated room at Abigail’s Hotel. Italian marble and antique features, such as a claw-foot bathtub, are offered in the bathroom. Select rooms offer a spa bath. Rooms can only be accessed via stairs. Cannot fault anything about the hotel. But the best thing was the staff. So friendly and helpful. I couldn’t have wished for a better hotel

Showcasing Edwardian décor, this B&B in Victoria city centre is just 10 minutes’ walk from Royal British Columbia Museum. Rooms feature a fireplace and barbecue facilities are located on site.

Romantic rooms at Marketa’s Bed and Breakfast are furnished with a four poster bed and original artwork. A spa bath is included in select rooms. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the B&B. Besides the breakfast - which is just amazing - and the location - which is ideal when visiting Victoria - we valued mostly the incredible heartwarming atmosphere in Marketa’s B&B! The staff is so friendly, we felt super welcome (and happy) during our stay here!

Offering a garden and quiet street view, Island View B&B is located in Nanaimo, 11 km from Newcastle Island Marine Park and 13 km from Nanaimo Museum. The property features mountain and garden views, and is 11 km from Nanaimo Bastion. The bed and breakfast has family rooms. Darlene’s place is gorgeous with beautiful gardens and amazing water views. She is a lovely and attentive host, and made us a delicious breakfast of fresh fruit, homemade scones, and scrambled eggs. The room with double beds was impeccable with a little coffee station, and the beds were cozy. Lots of extra pillows were on offer too. There is a nice pub and many other dining options nearby, and a few beautiful parks on the waterfront within a very short drive. We highly recommend a stay with her!

This adult only 110-year-old Italian mansion in historic Victoria is adjacent to the Government House and Gardens. It features a daily homemade breakfast and luxury rooms with a 2-person jetted tub.

The elegant rooms at Fairholme Manor are styled with hardwood floors and clean white walls. Each room features a TV and VCR, small refrigerator and bathrobes. Many boast 12-foot ceilings or large bay windows. This was the absolute best accommodation during our 6 weeks in North America and the best we have ever stayed in. Everything was perfect, from the beginning to the end. The whole property was absolutely stunning and very well maintained. A heaven of peace. The gourmet breakfast really blew us away, it was excellent and outstanding, the best we’ve ever had. Our room was very clean and really comfortable and it had the best view as a deer family came to visit every morning. Sylvia was the perfect host, she is a such a helpful, friendly and lovely person and it was a real pleasure talking to her. Her staff was also absolutely awesome. Thank you for making our stay so special ❤️ We will definitely come back and can highly recommend the Fairholme Manor.

Situated within 5.9 km of Maple Bay and 24 km of Mill Bay Ferry Terminal, Eaglenest Manor Cowichan provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Duncan. This guest house features free private parking and a shared kitchen. The accommodation offers luggage storage space and a concierge service for guests. Quiet neighborhood, and our room had a lovely view of the sunset. The bed was very comfy, the bathroom had both a shower and a bathtub, and there was a jacuzzi on the deck that we did not use for lack of time, as we were busy visiting the area. We received two (!) bottles of Pino Griggio and breakfast was just perfect. The house is so pretty and well designed and we did not want to leave.
