The description of the Oak Bay Guest House is promising. We found it a nice hotel but not very cosy. We missed the kettle in the common area to make a fresh cup of tea. There was no kettle in the rooms either. The guesthouse is located near the centre and close to the harbour where we had diner in... More

Our party stayed here in mid December 2011 for a friends wedding. As our group of family and friends was quite large, we had rented the entire place, and that worked out fabulously for us. The staff were very welcoming! I commented the first evening that it felt like we were staying at a family member's place, rather than a... More

I highly recommend the Oak Bay Guest House as a place to stay if you're planning a trip to Victoria, B.C. The hospitality was so welcoming by the owner, Egly. She made our stay just delightful.

This was our third stay and it won't be our last. The rooms are cozy and tastefully decorated, a great place to come home to after a day exploring Victoria. The breakfasts are delicious, the menu changes every day and there is plenty of choice. Overall, always a wonderful experience. Keep up the good work Egle and Derek. Danny50 More

Another reviewer said she felt like it was like her grandmother's home. I agree if your grandmother had lovely furniture and beautiful fireplaces. Another reviewer said that the breakfasts were always eggs benedict/florentine - but that is the Sunday morning breakfast only. I wasn't there on Sunday but I wish I had been since those are my #1 favorite breakfasts.... More

The experience was exquisite. I felt like I was in my grandmother's home with her warm smile and scrumptious breakfasts. Truly a home away from home. A "home base" to spend cozy days and evenings. I will be back very soon. More

This was such a lovely quiet place to spend to long weekend. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The breakfasts were super tasty and the free muffins were a nice touch.The rooms don't have TVs but you can use the share lounge or bring your lap top and use their wireless. More
