We stayed 3 nights here and it was such a pleasure. Breakfast is a special treat not only because it is so delicious but it's delivered directly to your room though a pass through. It was the perfect refuge from the city. Birds signing in the morning, soft sounds of church bells in a Japanese themed room. Such a different... More

The room was romantic and lovely (surprised at no shower, but the jacuzi tub was what we really wanted anyway...). The food was fantastic, and delivered via a dumbwaiter so no need to greet someone at the door for room service. Delicious and cozy. Since we eloped, the owners and other guests became our wittnesses and added to the impromtu... More

This was a great location as we were close to everything and enjoyed beautiful walks downtown. Our room was breathtaking and made this into the whole old Canada experience. The wood burning fireplace had the aromatic cedar wood to burn in it and relaxing in the jacuzzi tub made this an excellent place to unwind, relax and leave your stress... More

My husband and I spent this past Christmas as guests at Humboldt house b&B and it exceeded our expectations. Our first time staying at Humboldt House, we decided to stay in the Gazebo room and it was just beautiful. The house was peaceful, festive and the hosts were warm and inviting. We felt at home and relaxed and loved the... More

A devine retreat from modern day life. Ideally situated the Humboldt house is in the perfect location for both business and pleasure. The surroundings were luxurious and the breakfast divine. No need for awkward breakfast chat in a shared dining room, a delightful layered basket of delicious treats was privately delivered. In room jacuzzi tub, roaring fire and David's handmade... More

We chose this location on our day of arrival on October 15th. David was very pleasant about not requiring a deposit when I told him we would be there in 2-4 hours. He gave us directions of where to get off the city bus/BC transit and it was a two block walk from there. The next day we rented a... More

Dave was a wonderful host. Very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the delicious breakfast delivered to our room. The location was convenient to restaurants, shopping and the lovely Victoria waterfront. We stayed in the Edward's Room. It was a little dark at night (or maybe our eyes are just getting old!). More

I researched many B&B's before we chose this one, and we were very pleased. We especially liked getting to choose our breakfast time and having it delivered via a knock on our door and then through a "pass through" in the wall. There were four breakfast choices, and the crepes and eggs benedict we had were delicious as were the... More

My wife and I booked the White Heather Cottage in this featured B&B for 1 night to tour 2 friends visiting BC for first time. While the email confirmed "reservation", the full bill was charged to my credit card (instead of a % for reservation). Upon arrival, we were well received in this nicely decorated B&B, the Innkeeper Dave provided... More

We stayed here just one night, it was recommended by my sister who said "forget the Fairmont, stay at this B&B, you won't be sorry". I wasn't. We had the very well decorated Oriental Room, sunken jacuzzi, fantastic breakfast, fireplace...with real wood. TV, sound system, CD's available...anything you could think of to make this room really special. Price was reasonable... More
