Loved it! Everyone in the staff were very kind. But the one who made a huge difference in our staying was Chris. If you want to know the best way for your needs on getting to know Victoria, ask Chris. Very knowledgable and honest. Tell him what you would like to see and what your budget is and he'll take...

We spent three nights here in July 2012. The room was clean and the staff friendly. There is a Chinese restaurant on the premises that offers a discount to guests. We got take-out one evening and it was pretty good. The V Lounge next door is a sports bar, not a "strip club" as stated in other reviews. I did... More

Nothing about this place made me feel comfortable. Strip club and liquor stor next door, and lots of sketchy people hanging out in the parking lot. I was half-expecting my car to be broken into in the morning. Common areas of the hotel are filthy, and everything is old and in disrepair. The stairwells are filled with dirt, stains and... More

We stayed here in May for a night while in Victoria. The price was right but we didn't feel comfortable with the location. It is attached to a strip club. I'm glad our children were not with us. The room was small and the bed was small. It was clean and well kept. The staff were friendly and helpful. We... More

We didn't have high expectations when we went to the Red Lion, but it was clean and well kept for an older hotel. The pleasant surprise was how close it was to Uptown mall, which was lovely. It wasn't fancy, but the staff were kind and helpful and the room was clean. It was a five minute drive to downtown... More

We just stayed there this past weekend with my two young children as a three star Priceline deal. If you like stained furniture in your room, hookers standing out front, a liquor store onsite and the sounds of loud parties with hookers all night then this is the place for you. The worst hotel we have ever stayed in. We... More

We had a late arriving flight to Victoria, therefore I went with a cheap hotel as we were only sleeping for the one night. The Red Lion Inn was adequate for the price, nothing really fancy and it was on our way out to Tofino. The room was listed as non smoking, yet that is the first thing that we... More

We stayed in a one bedroom suite which was great. Good furnishings, kitchenette and all at a good price. Although it seems to be out in a less salubrious area of Victoria it turned out to be not so bad. A car is a good option. Walmart, Forever21, H&M are about a 3 minute walk away. Subway is about 100... More
