This was one of the best B and B experiences I've had in years. The Dashwood Manor is easy to find and located next to Beacon Hill park (definitely walk through it if you can) and along the beach with breaktaking views. The staff are extremely responsive and lovely. Easy parking and check in. The room was beautiful in that historic early 1900s way and the sheets may be the most comfortable I've ever had the pleasure of getting under. The cookies were a treat and the breakfast was lovely. Perfect stay! A big thanks to Ian who was working on site when we arrived and Rhys who helped us get an early check-in!


Fantastic Find

I really enjoyed my first solo get away at the Dashwood. I felt very comfortable in this lovely place. I was happy to meet other guests at breakfast and during my visit. I loved the traditional setting and it’s convenient location. The staff were friendly and helpful. And the breakfast was a wonderful way to start my day.

Loved it.

Disappointing stay. We had two rooms on the third floor, so a lot of stairs to manage. As soon as you enter either room you see stained carpeting. This is not what you expect from a pricey B & B. The bathrooms were hard to manage, as there was a low eave over the sink which made it hard for my husband to see in the mirror to shave. The bed was rather soft, and sagged in the middle.

Breakfasts were okay. I agree with another reviewer about the French toast - very dry. The thin, diner-style napkins were barely usable. One expects cloth napkins at a B & B like this.

There is no sitting room or any place for guests to gather outside of their rooms. 

Overall, the place needs a lot of upkeep. Nicked and scraped woodwork are visible everywhere. Artificial flowers everywhere have seen better days. 

Disappointing stay

Our room was large with 2 comfy chairs and the bed comfortable.  The bathroom was really small but this is a heritage building so things like this can be expected.  Location is great by Beacon Hill Park and across from the ocean.  We had our breakfast watching dogs playing in dog park.  Breakfast is hearty.  French toast the first day and eggs benedict the next.  Our only complaint was the french toast was prepared like most restaurants which means the bread was not soaked in the egg mixture long enough.  I joke that most restaurants wave the bread over the egg mixture before frying and this is what we had again.  The two young women serving breakfast were wonderful.

Wonderful B & B

Lovely experience.  We appreciated the location - away from the hustle/bustle of the downtown area, yet just a quick 5 min drive to get there if need be.  The sunsets were beautiful.  Beach access is right across the street.  Only negative was that it sits on the corner of a busy intersection so there is traffic noise, but very minimal between 10pm and 7am.  Breakfast was wonderful and the staff were charming. 

Another B&B experience that did not disappoint

Convenient location, view of ocean, close to parks, eating, coffee shops, easy acces to Victoria activities.  Warm hospitality, and service with good breakfast.  Individual room space and amenities while having community breakfast, snacks and gathering space.

Victoria history + comfort

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the Dashwood Manor experience. The location was ideal.  When you walked out the door, you crossed the street and were immediately at the incredibly scenic and breathtaking Ocean Trans Canada trail. This path went on for kilometres, in both directions and the views are over the top, stunning. Across Cook street, you had an immediate access to Beacon Hill Park.  We took those garden paths every day to access downtown, by bike and by foot.  The location can not be beat!

Our room was perfect.  We stayed in the Windsor Oak. The bed was extremely comfortable.  We prefer a king size bed on a holiday, so we were suspicious as to the comfort of a smaller bed, but it was perfect.  The breakfasts were very nice, served beautifully at your table. The breakfast room was beautiful, designed to reflect the period of the manor.  It would have added to the experience if there was quiet music playing while you ate.  The music playing in the lobby would be perfect in the breakfast room.  

Our Hosts, Kayla and Camelia, were always there to help.  There smiling presence and warm presence added to our feeling of a home away from home.  We plan on returning and trying a different room in this amazing 1912 Manor!    



A Manor that Offers Everything: A delightful Victoria Experience

I love this place! Wonderful, friendly staff, comfortable beds, excellent location, delicious breakfast, fresh cookies all day, peaceful quiet rooms, and a huge bath tub in the room.  I have stayed here three times now and intend to return every time I visit Victoria!! Don't forget to enjoy Beacon Hill Park right across the street!

My Favorite Hotel!

Beautiful place! Rooms were WAY BIGGER than expected. Food was SUPER GOOD! Different breakfast every day. Staff was beyond friendly and super helpful. Located on a corner with the ocean on one side and a massive beautiful park on the other. Will definitely come back!

Perfect B&B with AMAZING views!

Enjoyed the stay, simply amazing - were greeted nicely every morning with delicious breakfast. The Manor is near the ocean and had an amazing ocean and garden view from our room. The staff was friendly and nice.
