Econo Lodge & Suites

Esquimalt

Have stayed here several times over the past 5 years and the condition of the rooms were fair to poor.  Last time I tried to secure rooms for a group the manager would not even return my calls.  Had to hunt down the former manager to get contact info for the new owners.  Needs attention.

Poor Management

The place is older so it has much more room than the modern places. The kitchen up grade was a nice option, staff very helpful. The breakfast was the usual fare for choice hotels. The beds comfortable, all in all good place the stop at for travelers to the island.

Quite place to rest.

We enjoyed our stay with our toddler and baby in a clean spacious 2-bedroom suite with a great view of the water. Lots of parking available right by the unit so it was easy to pack up the car! WiFi signal was strong. 

Good value family accommodation 

My wife and I were on a one month holiday to Canada and Victoria was a must. The hotel was being renovated but the room we had hadn't been touched yet. One of the main problem for us was our room faced a really busy intersection and traffic was quite busy and started about 6.30 to 7.00am every morning. Plus the air con was noisy and was switched off then the room got really hot, then couldn't sleep. All in all the 2 nights we stayed there we didn't sleep well. The breakfasts were standard and having coffee outside next to the lake was really tranquil. Basically you pay for what you get.

Visit to Vancouver Island

Stayed there Sept 27, 2017. Have stayed there several times.  It was good value 'before' this last stay, but they are renovating so hoping to stay there again in the future.
We liked the mattresses!! They are firmer than pillow top but better for your posture, was a plus for me, pillow tops break down and do not leave a flat bed. I hope they don’t put pillow tops in when they renovate. Or at least leave a few firmer beds for those that like them and find it hard to find them in accommodations.
The room needed serious updating. But the room was ok for a night.
A plus for staying there is the walk on the gorge, very close by, a walk across a small bridge and you are there. Beautiful walk!!!!!
My biggest complaint was the smoke smell.......might have come from lady smoking below us, outside. They aren’t suppose to do that but saw others doing the same. The lady looked unwell so didn’t want to complain, so to be fair to the motel manager, we did not tell the office girl so we can’t complain. But hope they start enforcing their no smoking within a certain distance rule.  There is a green grass/picnic table for that.
Breakfast included in price. 

They are updating on the exterior, hope the rooms will be done too. If so, we will go back there!

They are renovating! Will try them again if the room is updated and they keep smokers away from their doors
