Guest Review of the Helm's Inn Victoria
28 September 2011
My husband and I stayed at the Inn last week. The location is great. Its in a
nice quite neighborhood just a 5 min walk to the harbor, restaurants and tours.
We were assisted by Marty one of the Inn keepers who couldn't have been nicer.
We would stay there again. The rooms are clean and spacious. Free parking.
Definitely a great value compared to the other places in town.

Helm's Inn always shows cheaper rates than other hotels in the same area.
Quaint, clean, with easy free parking, the only knock on this place is that it's
older and therefore not as quiet. Get a 2nd floor room away from the main roads
(these are busier roads with emergency vehicles at night). Rooms are plentiful
in size, beds are comfy and everything works a-ok. Location puts Helm's smack in
the middle of everything you want to do.

We had a wonderful 5 night stay at the Helm's Inn. The room and bathroom were
very clean. We had a one bedroom unit, with kitchen facilities, table and a
sofa. There was a tv in the living room, as well as in the bedroom. The staff
was very friendly and helpful. The location was within an easy walk to downtown
Victoria, to the Inner Harbour, Empress Hotel and the BC Government House, as
well as the BC Museum. We'll be back to the Helm's Inn on our next return to
Victoria.Guest Review of the Helm's Inn Victoria

My wife and I had not been back to this hotel for some time. We liked it before,
we like it even better now! When we walked in we were surprised at the changes
the recent (April 2011) renovations had brought about. The lobby is brighter,
with polished granite everywhere, including the hall ways.
The room we had was spotless, granite and hardwood floored and quiet on the
parking lot side.
The kitchenette was a treat to behold. Granite counter, narrow, tall stainless
fridge, micro-wave, two electric elements for cooking. Real glass wine glasses,
pots, pans, bowls, silverware, kitchen utensils, etc.
The king bed was solid and comfortable. The ambience surrounding the hotel has
not changed, but it says 'Victoria' to us. Greenery, a pond, a courtyard parking
area connecting the various buildings.
Service is straight forward and efficient.
We will be back for sure!

We only stayed for one night but would definitely return. The hotel is so close
to the BC museum it shares their car park! Also close to the Pacific coach bus
station, just head south along Douglas and the hotel is on the next corner.
Newly decorated and clean, our room had a kitchen with a double electric hob and
microwave. Saucepan, plates, utensils etc. are all new and clean. Free wifi.
Our room was on the upper floor and there was no lift but it was very quiet.
Service at the front desk was excellent, I am sure that if mobility is an issue
then if you raise this at the time you book then they will respond. |
