A visit to Hatley Castle makes history fun. Stare up at its ageing walls and pull out your guidebook to learn about its storied past.

This fortified complex is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Victoria. But Hatley Castle isn't the area's only highlight. British Columbia Parliament Building, Fisgard Lighthouse, and Government Street are some other worthwhile attractions close by.

18.4/10 Exceptional! (410 reviews)

This is a great place to stay. Granted it’s not poshy updated marble and brass - it’s a homey, roomy, delightfully clean and woodsy. And it’s literally a stones throw from the pub which is arguably one of the best in Vic. We have been here before and will be back again! Value for the money. And a bonus sampler pack of beer and chocolates when you stay. Really? Wow.

The room was excellent, and the pool was enjoyable. The hotel also offered a convenient laundry room. The evening staff were wonderful and very helpful, though the morning staff seemed less attentive. Check-in and check-out were both very easy. The only downside was the sofa bed, which wasn’t very comfortable. Aside from that, the room was great, and the location was very convenient.
