Need help with Victoria Hotels

[jp2001]

I will spend 1 night in Victoria and I don't want to spend too much money. My 2 options are Huntingdon Manor Inner Harbour and Traveller's Inn Downtown. Any comments on them would be appreciated.

Don't know about the Huntingdon and the Traveller's Inn are a series of older motels that have been brought up and renovated - there are scattered around the downtown core - when I go to Victoria I usually stay at the following hotel - Pauls Motor Inn on Douglas - it next door to Chinatown gate and within a mile of the inner harbour and shopping malls - it is moderate priced - but remember that Victoria accomodation is much higher in the summer than the off-season - here's a link to there web site:[url]http://www.paulsmotorinn.com[/url]

Hope this helps - enjoy your Victoria visit

It also has a coffee shop/dining room with quite a bit of history - while the meals are wholesome they are not gourmet and are reasonable value for the money.

As Dennis mentioned, Victoria rates do go up a fair bit in the high season and many hotels fill quickly.

You might want to also check out the James Bay Inn [url]http://www.jamesbayinn.bc.ca/[/url] which is just a few blocks from the Inner Harbour, Parliament Buildings, BC Museum and near Beacon Hill Park on Government St.

Another good site put out by BC Tourism for accomodation listings is located at : [url]http://hellobc.com/bcescapes/accommodations/searchresults_1.asp?reg_code=THE+ISLANDS[/url]

Have a great trip!
