美味しい朝食&素敵な滞在

建物とインテリアが本物！全てが本格的で、上品お湯の出方も十分で、お部屋は静か共用スペースも広くて、居心地が良い

もし叶うなら、シャワーカーテンの開閉が出来たら本当にいう事無し清潔だし、しっかりしたもので、使用感は良いけれど、使わない時もしまえないので、せっかく素敵な内装ののバスルールなのにシャワーカーテンに囲まれて入浴するしかないです必要だと思うからあっていいけど、要らない時たためると非常に良いと思いました

Traditional and exquisite charm.

Beautiful setting and amazingly well-preserved, well appointed and comfortable room, and a feeling of history. Lovely to sit in the parlour with tea and a fire. The included breakfast was beyond expectations! Delicious! Our host was warm and engaging and welcoming - made us feel like old friends.

Nothing to complain about!

Wonderful and highly recommend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the inn. The inn is decorated beautifully and is very charming. The room was wonderful and the bathroom was great too. The breakfast was incredible and the staff were so lovely.

Unfortunately a bit of noise from the pipes from nearby rooms when other guests would shower.

Fantastic historical place with excellent service

This place is stunning, I assume it’s heritage protected. All the finishings seem original, and eating in the dining area feels like you’re transported back in time. The service is absolutely exceptional too. I forgot to ask her name, but the lovely girl at the front desk oversaw our breakfast service flawlessly on day 1. And, when we told her not to worry about preparing food for us on day 2 as we had an early ferry, she took it upon herself to have our breakfast prepared early and kept in our room’s mini fridge. She was so lovely, and she made our stay even better.

Nothing of note, it is a bit of a drive to get into town but only 10 mins or so

Wohnen in historischem Ambiente!

Die historische Villa eines Verlegers liegt in der Nähe einer Bushaltestelle mit der man schnell ins Zentrum gelangt. Haus ist sehenswert u.a. wegen der historischen Einrichtung, auch im Frühstücks- und Aufenthaltsraum. Frühstück wurde serviert und war üppig. Sehr nettes bemühtes Personal.

Einrichtung des Zimmers etwas plüschig und Matratze schon in die Jahre gekommen. Im Außenbereich etwas unaufgeräumt.

Beautiful place for the young and healthy, bad news if you have any disabilities.

We loved the room. The breakfast was out standing.

The 68 stairs from the parking lot to our room. This place is for the under 40 crowd. I’m in my 60s and my wife is 75+. We both had a very difficult time. This is definitely an unfriendly property for the elderly and disabled. It should note the tremendous amount of stairs!

Interessante Unterkunft mit einem guten Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis

Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet und sehr grosszügig mit frischen Beeren/Früchten, Eierspeise und Muffin. Das Zimmer Cambridge war ansprechend und schön gross, das Bett bequem. Im Kühlschrank im Zimmer gab es kostenloses Mineralwasser.

Wir waren als Gruppe von 2 Ehepaaren unterwegs. Leider war ein Zimmer im Untergeschoss und nur vom Garten her zugänglich, das andere im Haus selbst im 1. Obergeschoss. Die Einrichtung im Frühstücksraum und das Mobiliar im ZImmer waren stilgerecht, aber der Teppich im Zimmer Cambridge hatte Flecken.

If This is Available - Grab it Now!

Oh my - if you want to spend a night feeling like royalty, this is the place! Have you ever slept in a covered 4-poster bed? I had no idea how high it was! This almost 140-year-old house is spectacular with a grand staircase, and sitting rooms, and the furniture and interior decorations are items from a house of this era. The only modern part of the room is in the washroom which is where the refrigerator is - and should be. It would be an eyesore next to a gorgeous 4-poster bed! Oh and if that isn't enough for you to book this experience right away - the full breakfast was absolutely wonderful! Served in the dining room and included first-course fruit, scones, and a main dish. I could not believe that they even had a full breakfast vegan option! I was able to eat a fresh vegan scone too. This was definitely a 10-star experience!

We loved the grand-staircase - but it's important to know that you do need to climb up stairs to your room.

A Magical Place - Steeped in History.

We have stayed once before at the Amethyst Inn. It is a magical Place - steeped in Victoria’s history, the staff are friendly and helpful and the beds are super-comfortable! My husband loved the breakfast. I was there for a procedure, so couldn’t eat.

There was a wonderful large fridge in our room, but I would have liked an individual kettle. Even though hot water is available downstairs it is a long way to go when you are on the top floor without a lift!

Pleasant family stay at a traditional B&B with a mostly impressive breakfast.

Overall I would enthusiastically recommend this B&B to friends and family. Inn was charming, quiet. Breakfasts were mostly delicious. Short drive (<10 min) to city center and other sights (even walkable, though we opted to drive in). Really a pleasant experience. We were in the Rendezvous room, which was perfect for a family of three (our 4-year-old child slept on the pull-out loveseat). Room was comfortable. Mini fridge was a nice touch. Note: no standing shower in the bathroom. Staff was helpful when we had wifi issues. Breakfast was a three-course meal (parfait, baked good, hot meal)! Most of the breakfast offerings were delicious.

Sometimes staff weren't immediately available when we had quick questions. Breakfast was mostly delicious, but confusing at times: We weren't clear whether we were able to request anything different from what was offered (eggs benedict one day, french toast another, omelette the third). On one day we were invited to request anything for our child; other days she was given the standard offering. They remembered my dietary restriction two of the days, forgot the third. I would've liked to have a preview/menu of offerings so we can opt into the full multi-course meal or request something smaller—but they made accommodations whenever guests asked. So, just ask!

Nice exprience.

I like the historical furniture in the building. I feel like it took me back to the days. It's a good place to introduce the history to my daughter. I also love the tea set they use for the breakfast.

Some corners are not very clean. I see spider webs. When I walk in the building, it's not smell very well in the lobby. But the room smells good.

Good but with some serious shortcomings.

Beautiful place, delicious breakfast, nice bathtub, European feeling, very comfortable bed

As soon as we entered the inn there was an overwhelming smell of mustiness and old cigarette smoke. This permeated the entire building. I'm sure that it has been smoke-free for many years, but perhaps the hot weather brought out the smell. Our third floor room was also uncomfortably warm despite ceiling and floor fans. Better fans should have been provided, or a window air conditioner installed. I loved the historic feeling, but some of the furniture was just old and beat up. Finally, we didn't consider the distance from the inn to the downtown/waterfront area. Without a car, this meant numerous bus and cab trips, and one long walk. So not recommended if you don't have a car.

Felt very special and spoiled. A unique and delightful experience which will always be remembered!

Stayed 2 nights and breakfasts were exceptional! Delicious, abundant servings on special dinnerware. Eggs Benedict (2 servings) had excellent hollandaise sauce. The French toast served the next morning were covered abundantly with fresh fruit. Both mornings started you off with a generous serving of fresh yogurt topped with fresh berries, mango chunks, granola. Excellent coffee refilled to your heart’s desire. Comfortable and delightful atmosphere beautifully decorated with antique furnishings and stained windows. Relaxing music in the background creates a feeling of peace and comfort. Excellent service! Bed and room were very comfortable! Huge washroom too!

Wouldn’t change a thing!
