Top South Oak Bay Hotel Reviews

Arbutus Inn

8/10 Good

"Nice to have car rental company in hotel"

Royal Scot Hotel & Suites, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 night stay at the Royal Scot. In Victoria to support our son in the Royal Vic Marathon and reconnect with local extended family over Thanksgiving dinner. Our 1 bedroom suite offered tons of space to congregate and host visitors. The hotel is perfectly positioned for race day and all things downtown. Room, while dated was super clean with comfortable beds and sparkling white towels and robes. Pool and hot tub indoors were a great place for conversation and activities for family. The on site restaurant Floyd's served up scrumptious breakfasts. Staff at both the hotel and restaurant were friendly and helpful. Parking was complimentary and a courtesy shuttle was available for local transfera. I would not hesitate to return to Royal Scot again. Many marathoners return to the hotel every year to partake in the annual event!"
