Amethyst Inn at Regents Park - Victoria

the breakfasts were uncomfortable. they didnt set enough tables so we had to walk into an awkward situation and sit at a table with people we didn't know. we were on a honeymoon so we would have preferred our own table. in my room i could hear the people beside us clear as day. another thing you dont want on your honeymoon.on the last night we wanted […] to watch movies together, but the dvd player was broken we had one person in there who didnt know what she was doing she brought someone else in he didnt know what he was doing, then they called someone who couldnt really help them, all speaking a language we didnt understand. we finally just asked them to leave.

we were lucky enough to find the amethyst inn online-- we were amazed at the inn from our first moments there to our last. friendly staff, goregous rooms, fabulous breakfast served to you in the beautiful dining room.. a step back in time not only with the surroundings but to when service was not just a word. cannot wait to go back there next year. […] this is a must stay for tourists or even victoria residents who need a night away to be pampered.

The Amethyst is a really lovely place to stay, with its old fashioned atmosphere. It would be perfect if not for its location. It’s slightly far from downtown Victoria, but if you are willing to walk for 20 minutes - not much in the end - you can get there by feet. Otherwise, the bus stop is near and the time schedule convenient. On the upper hand, […] you are walking distance for the Blithly Bistro, a simply delicious, owner operated restaurant in Oak Bay.

It was a lovely departure from a standard chain hotel. the rooms were a lovely peak in to era long gone, with all the amenities of the present. The host was lovely and extremely helpful. The breakfast was absolutely delic! The only minor comment is you should have a car with you if staying there. Downtown Victoria is a bit away. You can take a bus, […] but a tad bit inconvenient.

The Amethyst is an old wooden building with a wonderful period interior: wood panelling, fantastic double staircase, large bedrooms, furniture in keeping with the decor. The owners obviously have a love affair with this wonderful building. Nice garden to sit in in good weather. Tea/coffee permanantly available in the lounge, along with sherry and home […] baked cookies. The highlight was the breakfast. Personal, attentive service. Huge fresh fruit cocktails to start. Freshly baked scones and muffins. Canadian bacon and scotch pancakes. French toast and smoked salmon. Different menu every day. Fantastic. Only down side was that it was quite a way out of the centre of Victoria, but the bus stopped right outside and was cheap and frequent. House was within walking distance of Craigdarrock Castle, a must see in Victoria. Also close to lots of antique shops. Devamı

I absolutely loved my stay at the Amethyst Inn. It was the first time I was traveling solo and everything about the inn gave me a sense of comfort. Wonderful room. wonderful jacuzzi soaking tub, the best breakfast ever, and the the owners and family are amazingly kind. I felt so well taken care of by everything they did. I still want to corn cakes recipe--- […] everyone at breakfast loved them. The house is charming and the inn keepers Abel and Shelly are amazing at making you feel welcome. Jenny their daughter shares her amazing knowledge of Victoria and even where to eat the best ice cream. I never had a B&B stay anywhere as lovely as the Amethyst Inn! Devamı

I felt I was welcomed as if I were a friend at the Amethyst Inn at Regents Park. My hosts were friendly, always willing to help/ give directions or leave me to myself when I wanted that. The building and decor were magnificent, particularly in the breakfast room. I felt I was experiencing life in an era long gone. I really valued seeing inside the houses […] in this area of Victoria. Breakfast was superb, I particularly enjoyed the fresh baked muffins and scones. In fact the cheese scones were the best I have ever tasted. Thank you! Devamı

The Inn is currently family owned, very friendly and welcoming. Owner Abel & daughter Jennifer served breakfast attentively while Mom Shelly cooked delicious breakfasts each morning. Jennifer helped us navigate on the city buses (remember to thank your driver when deboarding, the Canadian way!) We met & conversed with other guests each morning (we were […] the only Americans staying there). If you enjoy this kind of experience, you will love the Amethyst Inn! The Terrace rooms are in a building next to the house, small but cozy, price was attractive for the experience we were looking for. Devamı

The photos on the website do not do this mansion justice. Just beautiful! And the two breakfasts were superb! The owners, Abel and Shelley were as helpful as can be. The Inn is centrally located, making it so easy to get anywhere we wanted to go. Most of the rooms are large, with some place to sit other than the bed. The Rosebud room, which is the one […] we stayed in, was sweet, with old fashioned touches but a new fashioned bathroom (Loved that huge tub!) but we had a huge suitcase and had trouble placing it where it wouldn't get in the way of the television, egress, or the like, and only had a dressing table bench as an alternate seat. But that was the only, and very small, glitch in our stay at the Amethyst. Devamı

We only stayed one night but it was wonderful. The owners met us outside and escorted us to the sitting room and gave use tea & sherry. The room was very nice, clean, modern and quiet. We walked to downtown and took a bus back. The breakfast was very pleasent; the girls fussed over us making sure we were fed well. I would highly recommend this B&B to […] others. Devamı

The main house/building was beautiful, but our upstairs bungalow room was less, however was clean. The food was great and the hostesses were friendly. The difficulty without a car was the hotel's distance to anything and the fact that buses (conveniently located within a block of easy walking) arrived just every 30 minutes making dinner reservations […] difficult. The other frustration was that we were sent to a remote spot for dinner and it was closed on Sunday evening. Devamı

Historic charm with all the amenities of the present. Sparkling clean, updated bathrooms with quiet plumbing are combined with comfortable beds and elegant, quiet bedrooms. We extended our stay and moved to the Duchess Suite on the last night. In spite of the fact that it is directly over the dining room we couldn't hear a thing. The owners were wonderful […] and helpful and the breakfasts were supurb. We would definitely do this again. Devamı

Outstanding Bed and Breakfast place to go to. It's a family-owned business. Such amazing, fun, nice and personable staff. Will go beyond their call of duties. Elegant homemade breakfasts, plus homemade cookies/pastries for snacks, tea/coffee and Sherry anytime of the day/nite! Their girls are so sweet and fun...you just want to take them home with […] you :) Thanks Shelley, Mom, Carrie, Alice, Jenny, Chi-Chi. We miss you already! Devamı

While my mother was in the hospital in Victoria, we stayed at the Amethyst Inn. The staff was great. Friendly, helpful, and considerate beyond any expectations. We have avoided B & B's because of a prior experience at a different facility, but will reconsider. Our room was spacious, comfortable and the house was quiet. We were surprised at breakfast […] by the number of people who had stayed! Devamı

The staff was welcoming and friendly. They tried to make sure that we were comfortable. They were very willing to give us information about the town and fun places to visit. We had an early departure time from Victoria and they were willing to accommodate us and prepare breakfast early. The food was delicious at every breakfast. This was a wonderful […] place to relax and get away from all of the bustle of the city with out being too far away. Devamı

The breakfast they served mornings were superb. They always had fresh fruit available and bottled water and soda. The only drawback was hauling luggage up to the third floor. The inn was very clean and the grounds well tended. The owners were very helpful and personable.

This family-run b&b was an excellent choice. The large property is well-maintained, beautifully restored, Authentically decorated, and offers excellent customer service. We were pleased with the gated parking, warm friendly staff, tasty breakfast, and free wireless. Abel and Sherry, the owners, had great recommendations and offerred wonderful ideas […] for sight seeing. Our room was clean, quiet, and truly romantic with a jet tub. The Ameyhyst Inn is just a few minutes' drive from downtown or Oaks Bay. Ideal location for many adventures in any direction. Another plus is that this family is Chinese and can recommend the best Chinese food options in town..not just the typical touristy stuff that breaks your budget...and teeth! Devamı

Beautiful, immaculate building lovingly restored. The breakfast is worthy of comparison with the best hotels, portions are generous and the quality is first rate. The owners are genuinely concerned with all aspects of your stay. They know their city and if they recommend a restaurant or an activity...GO. Their warmth and friendliness made our stay a […] very memorable one. We will certainly be back again and again. The rooms are large, very comfortable and immaculately kept. Devamı

This place is really hidden gems with security gate for your car to enter the compound. The breakfast is warmly homemade with a cup of British tea. The room has a jacuzzi tub.

We stayed at the Amethyst for 3 nights and had a very positive experience. The hosts are friendly people who have put a lot of work and love into the historic house. The breakfasts were quite delicious. We didn't have a car, but had no problem getting around by bus and by foot. We would definitely stay there again!
