Best hotel in Victoria
14 Sept 2026
They best hotel in Victoria. Excellent customer service. Staff are incredible and any request is handles promptly. The rooms are great and the location is fantastic to see all aspects of the city. This is the only place I stay in Victoria because my experience is so impressive every time. I recently booked here for my wedding and everyone had a great experience. Thank you so much to management and staff. Your efforts are so very appreciated.

Nice Location bad Service
19 May 2026
I stayed here and honestly felt like I was sleeping on the street. The room was extremely noisy, and the only “solution” offered was earplugs that would probably hurt your ears if you used them. The night auditor didn’t seem to understand anything I was explaining, and there was zero customer service from him.I clearly told the receptionist who check me in that I have back pain and need at least a king-size bed. Instead of trying to help, or to just say “let me check what I can do” but no effort at all. Very weak service and no customer-care touch.The only positive part of my stay was the morning shift receptionist, who actually listened, apologized, and showed empathy when he heard what happened. The supervisor was also kind and approved a late checkout for me, which I appreciated.But overall, the night experience and the lack of care made the stay disappointing. Chris Watson, General Manager at Best Western Plus Carlton Plaza Hotel, responded to this review Thank you Mounir for this informative review. Our deepest apologies for the trouble you experience with internal noise, we can all understand how frustrating it is not to sleep. We will be using this experience to improve our customer care and will be working with our night team to understand what went wrong. We do have security on site and they do patrol the corridors to insure guests are not kept up by others, I am sorry this did not seem to work as usual on Monday night. I am happy to hear our team granted a complimentary 3pm check out when requested.In regards to your bed size concern, I can appreciate the perception you experienced of a lack of care, but I can assure you that was not the case, your reservation was booked as a Traditional Room with two double beds. We had rooms available on Monday, but it was noted that only one room type was available, the room type you booked. In fact, we had been on top of that all day as we had been trying to open up other room types, unsuccessfully. I believe what you sensed as a lack of effort was simply a front desk agent already acutely aware we did not have any flexibility for a room type change to a king bed. Nevertheless, there are always lessons to learn and we will to present our responses in a better manner. Sincerely,Chris WatsonGeneral Manager

My family and I were able to walk to all of the shops and sites because of the convenient location. For the times we needed our vehicle, the front desk staff were great about getting our vehicle to us. Will stay again. We recommend!

We are very happy you enjoyed our extremely walkable location and happy to hear you also received prompt service from our front desk team for times you needed to take your car.
