We love this hotel and always stay there. Everything in downtown Victoria is easily walkable and it is only a few blocks to the Savon Center for hockey. It is easy to get in and out of town from the location. Be sure to go to John’s for breakfast-just a block away!

Great stay!
We’ve stayed at Hotel Rialto several times and always have a wonderful time. Comfortable and clean rooms with helpful and friendly staff. Great location too with downtown, Chinatown, and the ferry all within walking distance.

Great location
Beautiful hotel in great location. Parking is tricky as it is across the street, over a block, and in the opposite direction of traffic so you have to drive through a maze of one way streets to access it. Our bed was not very comfortable as the old spring mattress bounced with every little move and it sagged in the middle. The room was very clean and spacious and coffee was delicious. The restaurant downstairs is very vibrant and service was lovely overall. I would recommend for solo travellers and someone without a car.

Filipina staff are cute. The parkade is a block away so if you have luggage and it's raining this is not ideal.
