Top Mill Bay Hotel Reviews

Bayview Bed and Breakfast

Bayview Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent
"I only stayed one night but would have loved to have stayed longer. Price was very reasonable compared to alternatives in Victoria. Juliette was very responsive in the run up to my stay. I was in the deluxe suite - bed/pillows were super comfortable and I had a nice desk to work from. The house was clean and there was access to all kinds of spaces/rooms throughout. If you've of my vintage and were into the Hardie Boys - her library had about 15 books from the series. Nice touch. Juliette made an awesome breakfast and was a great person to talk to. Ask her about her background - you'll end up in all kind of fascinating discussion and topics. Highly recommend staying at her BnB."

"Room was a good size for our family! Not often a hotel is comfy for five of us. Nice to have a bedroom and large pull out sofa. The building could use some updates or repairs (water stains on ceiling, water damage on door, etc) but I still think it was a great deal for the price and the bedding and bathroom and everything were clean."

Coast Victoria Hotel & Marina by APA

Coast Victoria Hotel & Marina by APA

8/10 Good
"We booked this on line, and very honestly, it may have been one of the more expensive hotels we have ever booked. From some perspectives it was very good--location, cleanliness, attractiveness, staff, etc. but from some other perspectives we were not positively impressed--i.e. the air conditioning unit was so noisy we had to turn it off in order to be able to sleep, there was no shuttle service available until mid-afternoon, not when we needed it, very tiny deck, etc. Fortunately, after reporting the noisy air con unit, a very helpful maintenance person (Jay) came the next day and repaired the unit. We also were informed that we would not "qualify" for the voucher for the hotel restaurant since we booked our room with Expedia (which was never mentioned at any time). We feel the detractions were significant enough to lower our rating to a high average or good."
