Stayed four nights for a mini vacation in Victoria. The hotel is in a good area, off the freeway (no road noise to speak of), close to Butchart, Butterflies, Victoria and the Ferry's. Dog's cute, rooms are clean and decent beds. Only issue was the darkness of the rooms, black Tudor trim with poor lighting. Breakfast buffet was sufficient, hotel... more

"We stayed one night and were very, very pleased. Very charming and great value for the money. There is a new little Bassett puppy named John the 4th who is "greeter in training" and he is just precious. The restaurant and pub are excellent I might add. You do not need to leave the hotel once you check in." Hotel... more

About 6 or 7 minutes to Sidney. The hotel is right next to the highway, but road noise is not an issue. It was actually a very... more

I spent one night at the Quality Inn Waddling Dog mid-week on business. I arrived just after 5:00 pm and the front desk agent greeted me and took my reservation. Then "John", the real waddling dog (Bassett Hound) came out from behind the desk and waddled over to say hello! So adorable. Check-in was quick and easy and the front... more

We spent one night at the Quality Inn Waddling Dog when in Victoria for the marathon. Our room was comfortable and quiet. I was very surprised and pleased to find that the continental breakfast was served at 6 a.m. on a holiday Sunday. Overall, the hotel is a bit far out of town, but convenient to Butchart Gardens and other... more

This is a lovely OLDER hotel. If you like a more modern plush room, this isn't the hotel for you. This feels like a giant house with a "pub" downstairs that served nightly specials at VERY affordable rates. It's has a library with a fireplace and a piano. John the dog would come out and see what you're doing and... more

If you're a dog lover, this is the place for you. John, the sweet, loveable, Bassett Hound was so cute. I wish the person working the front desk would have let him come out into the lobby, as I was really missing my dog. One thing I noticed that was not in other posts is the room air conditioning.
