Frommer's Review
This 18-story hotel was built in 1975 as a high-rise apartment building, so the hotel's rooms and one-bedroom suites are unusually spacious; many suites have kitchenettes, and all have balconies. The one-bedroom suites were renovated in 2006 and there have been some decor changes throughout, making this a good value for your money (including free local phone calls and complimentary high-speed Internet access). Prices are higher for the 5th through 15th floors, where the views are better; if you can, get one of the corner 09 rooms with windows on two sides. The Vista 18 Rooftop Lounge offers one of the best views of downtown Victoria.
Facilities:
Rooftop restaurant; bar; indoor pool; small exercise room; Jacuzzi; concierge; limited room service; babysitting; laundry service; same-day dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
