Toronto Downtown Bed and Breakfast

Welcome to Victoria!

To realize Victoria, you must take all that the eye admires most in Bournemouth, Torquay, the Isle of Wight, the Happy Valley at Hong Kong, the Doon, Sorrento and Camps Bay; add reminisces of the Thousand Islands, and arrange the whole round the Bay of Naples, with some Himalayas in the background. - Rudyard Kipling

Shopping, Galleries, Museums, Ocean views, Gardens, Fine Dining ... just blocks from your door in our exciting city at Victoria Downtown Bed and Breakfast. Perfectly located in a mature, quiet neighbourhood just steps to downtown and the many attractions of the city.

Flower-filled courtyards, restored Victorian homes and sophistication plus is what you'll find in Victoria's James Bay/Fairfield neighbourhood, the city's most fashionable downtown area, including galleries, museums and restaurants.

Your personable hosts, Roger and Jim, proud ambassadors for Victoria, will happily advise you on all aspects of your visit to Vancouver Island, including personalized trip planning, Victoria tours by day and by night, VIP theatre tickets, fishing excursions, spa services, art discovery walks, and more.

Hearty full, cooked breakfast served every morning, including our legendary lunch-skipping Full English breakfast with cereals, muffins, toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, baked beans, mushrooms, grilled tomato, fruit and freshly ground Starbucks coffee served in our dining room on an ever-changing palette of fine china, linens and silver. Varied menu for longer visits. Expanded Continental breakfast served any morning upon request - and even our Continental is "lunch-skipping" generous, with smoked salmon, fresh fruit compote, and piping hot pastries.

Although we are just steps from some of the greatest restaurants on the continent, you may prefer to stay in, secure and snug, on the evening of your arrival. Dinner on Arrival is a specialty of Victoria Downtown Bed and Breakfast.

VQA Wines on arrival Share international award-winning VQA Canadian wines with your hosts in the evening upon arrival, or the delightful house drink, a Lemon Drop Martini. Enjoy also the varying exhibits of local artists, featuring this season, the work of Terrence Jon Dyck. A truly luxury experience awaits.

"With Our Compliments..."

Your stay at Victoria Downtown Bed and Breakfast includes full-service attention to every detail to ensure your visit is complete and perfect in every way. The cookie jar and fruit bowl are always full and there's a coffee / tea / hot chocolate maker, a pair of fluffy robes, an iron and board and hair dryer in each room. Complimentary wash and fold laundry service for guests of three nights or more.
