This old hotel has so much charm. It is located on the Main Street and is a quick walk to Chinatown or the Wharf depending on where you want to go. We had a view of the harbor and it was nice to see the seaplanes and ferries arriving and leaving.

We arrived late in the evening driving diff a couple hours through an atmospheric rainstorm. We initially had concerns about the quality of the room we booked for 5 days as various sites had pictures that did not show it off as well as Hotels.com. But Ron on the night duty desk was kind enough to show it to us after we insisted we needed a look first and it was fine and he was more than helpful our amenities stay. If you want the most central spot in Victoria’s downtown by historic Chinatown the market and loads of shopping and restaurants you could not do better than the Bedford Regency we give it 5 stars. Despite the only flay that they need to refresh the bedding and get proper duvets other than that next time we are back in Victoria this where we will stay again. Bryon & Lynda

I loved the convenience of a small fridge to store breakfast and a kettle to boil water, and the coffee machine. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet, I contributing to a sound sleep. No fan on th bathroom.

The room had a ‘kitchenette’, but did not stock anything (dishes, pots and pans, utensils , etc) to use it as such. The bathroom had some spots that looked like black mould. The toilet had problems with the tank refilling and then would not flush.

For an older hotel, the room was clean, but it was very warm even with the thermostat turned off. The parking was only a 5 min walk from the building, but it was $20 a day through the hotel, whereas if we had paid at the lot it would have been only $17 a day.

there is no kitchen and no bar. this hotel is a serious problem. very old, dated and completely wrong for a hotel. the location is amazing in down town Victoria and since it was a really busy weekend, we HAD to stay there. otherwise it may have been the worst hotel I have been to in the last 10 years. its needs a complete remodel. the doors are half the size, the shower is 2 X 2.. cant even stretch your hands. there is NO place to charge your phone. get this.. there is no sink in the room. thank God they stuck a toilet in there. Never again.
