Sumptuous gourmet breakfasts featuring locally grown produce are served in the formal paneled dining room overlooking the garden, or in the sun-drenched Italian Orangerie.
Vegan, gluten-free, or vegetarian meals are available upon request.
In the afternoons, guests can enjoy tea and Amarone della Valpolicella either in the tranquil gardens or in front of the fire in the wood-paneled library of our exclusive Victoria bed and breakfast inn in BC, Canada.
The inn is located minutes from downtown Victoria and the city’s beautiful Inner Harbour. Managing Innkeeper Liam Morton will arrange fine dining experiences for guests, as well as activities such as whale watching, sailing, paddling, golf, and tours of local vineyards and the Gulf Islands.
Spa services and esthetician services can be scheduled at our guest’s convenience in our on-site Penthouse Spa Hamaam.

SUGGESTIONS FOR REVIEWERS
Describe the key elements of the accommodations : decor, hospitality, value, housekeeping, setting, and/or meals. What were the highlights of your stay? A comfortable bed and elegant decor? The convenient location? The delicious breakfasts and afternoon snacks? The hospitality of the innkeepers? Extra amenities and/or advice for business or vacation travel? If in the area again, would you return? Recommend to friends?
Be both honest and fair : We feature various types of accommodation - some more luxurious than others ... Criteria of charm vary from person to person
We offer a wide selection of quality guesthouses for all tastes and budgets
It is not fair to compare a guesthouse that charges €75 a night with a nearby property that charges double or triple that rate.
Things can go wrong in the best of guesthouses, and the difference between an average place and a great one is how the innkeepers address the problem when something unexpected occurs.
Avoid hyperbole : Reviews that include only effusive praise or complete condemnation are rarely helpful or even credible.
Innkeeper responses : There are at least two sides to every story (often three!). The reviews posted on the Charming Guest Rooms website are taken seriously by innkeepers.
We reserve the right for innkeepers to respond to any review.
