What guests loved the most

“I've commented before what great value Helms in is. That's where we stay when we go to Victoria from up Island. Centrally located within a short walk of a multitude of attractions and a lot of excellent restaurants.”

, Canada

“The suite was beautiful roomy and closed off bedroom with second tv was excellent. Kitchenette was surpringly well appointed and roomy with a comfy breakfast bar. We hope to book this suite for future medical trips to Victoria and especially an extended one for surgery and recovery!”

, Canada

“Beautifully renovated rooms that were very well laid out and had just about everything you could want: from a kitchenette to an extra murphy bed. Super friendly, helpful staff and a great location close to the harbour and downtown. One note: if you can't negotiate stairs, this isn't the place for you. Otherwise, I would return in a heartbeat.”

, Canada

“The room kitchen, bathroom, floors and beds were clean. Coffee and tea at the front reception was nice in the mornings when heading out.”

, Canada

“great location, comfy bed, but very high some kind of water pipes are very noisy”

, Canada

“Our room was a spacious one bedroom apartment with large fridge, microwave, oven and stove. Main bed huge and comfy. Television in both bedroom and lounge area. Kitchen and bathroom very fresh and clean. It would definitely suit a family with 2 kids as the lounge is a sofa bed. The Inn is one block from the Victoria Capital City Bus station (BC ferries bus ends there from Vancouver) and a 5 minute walk to Inner Harbour and James Bay supermarket. Beacon Hill Park across the road. It is a home away from home.”

, Australia

“everything was perfect. the staff was very accomodating and gives really good restaurant suggestions. :D”

, Canada

“Bed was really comfortable but did not like the high platform frame bed was on. Too high.”

, Canada

“I thought it was in an ideal location to the harbour area and had plenty of great walks close by.”

, Canada

“The room was spacious, attractive, and comfortable, and the kitchen facilities were good. The staff were friendly and helpful.”
