We stayed at the Arbutus Inn recently and due to some of the reviews we had read about bugs etc., we were a bit skeptical but it turned out to be a very pleasant experience and no bugs anywhere. We chose the ground floor and found our room quite spacious, very clean and everything was in working order. The front desk staff were very friendly and gave us the supplies when asked , without any hesitation. Having free parking and a car rental company next to checkin was an added bonus. On the whole we would definitely recommend this hotel. It is within 2 blocks from a huge shopping Mall too. We would rebook this hotel without any hesitation.

Great value for renovated rooms/baths; quiet; some homeless activity in a mostly commercial business area. No bother to us / but solo travellers may reconsider. No elevator.

The Arbutus met our needs exactly. Clean, comfortable, quiet and surprisingly affordable. It was close enough to downtown that my family could spend the day walking the shops of Victoria.
