This guest house looks nice on the outside but absolutely lovely inside! We loved our suite looking out at the castle which is right beside the property. The bed was fantastic with tons of pillows. A comfy couch was great for reading and the room made you feel like you were staying in the home of a wealthy aunt, not a hotel. You’re in a quiet neighborhood with other lovely houses. I’ve stayed at the Empress but this will be my first pick for my next trip to Victoria. The value is much better with more room for the money.

Located on a quiet street and next to a historic castle this place was perfect. It had character and historic charm our room had a view of the castle and I felt like I was in a fairytale. The staff was lovely and we got to meet the owner Stephen m! who is wonderful and answers any questions and helps you with anything you need. They have a lovely little breakfast for $10 and make sure that you carve out some time to tour the castle next-door! Cannot wait to return, wonderful stay

This was a very nicely furnished property in the Rockland neighborhood. The only negative about The Craigmyle is that its walls are quite thin and you can hear everyone's coming and goings.

This place is really cute. It is literally in front of the Craigdarroch Castle. This isn't really a hotel, more like a B and B. It has a kitchen you can cook in and washer and dryer you can use from 5-8. There is a lovely sitting room on the first floor. My room looked recently renovated and very comfy. It does have a lot of stairs, so beware if that's an issue for you.

I don’t usually complain, but I Was not impressed that I had to park three blocks away to stay here, the ad said parking onsite and on street. It did not mention that people had to compete with residents for a parking spot! Could not even bring my luggage because it was far away and I couldn’t carry it that far. Then we get there and my room is up two flights of stairs, which for someone with muscle issues wasn’t great. I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and was greeted by a big spider walking across my foot. The bathroom floor was dirty. The internet didn’t work which was not convenient at all as there was no tv in our room either. The place was nicely decorated, the bed was comfortable but the lack of parking on site and stairs were very inconvenient.
