Occupying a 1930s Tudor revival-style mansion, Abigail's Hotel is a small, mid-range heritage inn decorated in a rustic, romantic style that makes it an attractive alternative to generic chain hotels. The 23 rooms were renovated in 2014 and come equipped with luxurious amenities such as flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, fireplaces, and whirlpool baths. A three-course breakfast is included in the room rates, as are evening appetizers. Parking and Wi-Fi are also free. However, the hotel has a strict adults-only policy, with only children above the age of 13 allowed to stay. Guests wanting a comparably priced hotel that allows kids may want to check out the four-pearl Victoria Marriott Inner Harbour, which also has a swimming pool, a spa, and a restaurant.

The 103-room, mid-range Best Western Plus Carlton Plaza Hotel is exceptionally well-located in downtown Victoria. This clean property is just a two-minute walk from City Hall and less than a 15-minute walk to the Inner Harbor. It's an excellent price for the location, though the decor is somewhat generic, chain-hotel fare. Rooms are clean and comfortable, though, with mini-fridges, Keurig coffeemakers, and flat-screen TVs. The hotel has a full-service restaurant on-site, a drab but functional fitness center, and a 24-hour front desk. Closer to the Inner Harbor, the mid-range Chateau Victoria Hotel and Suites offers more elegant decor and an indoor pool, though is pricier than the Best Western.

The highly acclaimed wine cellar, the excellent restaurant and sushi bar, the great spa with couple’s treatments, and the warm decor throughout make this hotel an excellent pick for an upscale romantic getaway. Spacious rooms have large furnished balconies with ocean views, upscale peek-a-boo bathrooms with deep Jacuzzi tubs and Deserving Thyme toiletries, and sitting areas with working fireplaces. But considering the pool and the fitness center are small, and some rooms still have tube TVs and old CD players, prices seem a bit high (especially in the summer).

The four-and-a-half-pearl Oak Bay Beach Hotel offers luxurious accommodations and a spectacular oceanfront setting, though some may find its traditional decor dated and a tad stuffy. But there's a lot to like about this hotel, with an impressive lineup of amenities including gourmet dining, a classic British pub, an on-site theater, and a heated outdoor pool and mineral baths. There's also a full-service spa with a steam room and fitness center, but it’s small and sparsely equipped. The hotel's 100 guest rooms are elegant and spacious, and many have panoramic bay views from private balconies or patios. Marble bathrooms are a highlight, with heated floors and separate soaking tubs. Travelers looking for an upscale property that's closer to downtown Victoria can check out Inn at Laurel Point.
