Top Esquimalt Hotel Reviews

Red Lion Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"방도 깨끗하고, 청소도 잘 되어있고, 얼음 기계도 잘 이용했고, 뜨거운 물도 잘 나왔어요. 전자렌지도 사용 잘 했어요."

Strathcona Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"They were excellent at communicating from the time we booked them and during our stay. The ladies at the front desk were courteous and professional. We arrived in the morning on the ferry as walk ons and they stored our luggage until check in. We also left our luggage after check out until the time to catch the afternoon ferry. That allowed us to explore the town freely. The whole facility was clean and well maintained. Our room was spacious, updated and comfortable. They offered toiletries if we had forgotten anything. The location was walkable to all the activities and restaurants we chose. We will definitely consider staying here again."

Embassy Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Best of all is the location. Cross the street from parliament building, the room even has a nice view of the building. Super convenient with all attractions. Another highlight is definitely the complementary breakfast which has sausage and scrambled egg. Definitely above the average. Very clean and helpful staff. I with i brought my wallet for tips because they deserve it. The only downside i would say is the musty smell of the room. Unsure what it is, but the room has a smell!"
