Felt like we stepped back in time and we loved that! Front desk staff were great, restaurant was good. Loved the location!

A classically quirky hotel, ridiculously comfortable, and connected to a great pub and cafe. Central location (2 blocks from the Fairmont Empress) makes it ground zero for fun and tourist shenanigans.

We really enjoyed our stay at the James Bay Hotel. We loved the eclectic character of the hotel and the neighbourhood, it had a unique, comfortable feel that was much more interesting than a typical chain hotel. The location was excellent, with everything very walkable, including the harbour and so many great areas to explore around Victoria. The staff were friendly, welcoming and genuinely helpful whenever we needed anything. We also appreciated how quiet it became at night. There was some activity from the pub downstairs, but once things settled down around midnight, the hotel was nice and quiet and we had no trouble sleeping. Overall, the James Bay Hotel was a great choice for our Victoria stay. If you appreciate character, a great location and a more relaxed, local feel, we would definitely recommend it.

The James Bay Inn is very old but seems to be well maintained. It oozes character and uniqueness to that I have never experienced before. The staff are awesome and very accommodating and the location is perfect for walking downtown or to the beaches. We loved our stay and if we ever get back out that way, we will definitely make this our place to stop

The James Bay Inn is the perfect place to enjoy the wonders of Victoria. The front desk staff members are always helpful and accommodating. Hedy, Roy, and the team make you feel welcome. The rooms are quiet and impeccably clean. If you are looking for a safe place to explore Victoria, you'll find it at the James Bay Inn. It's located three blocks from the Inner Harbour in a leafy green neighborhood of residential houses. It's the perfect place to relax and refresh while you are in Victoria. My wife and I have been in over 20 hotels in the city, and this is the place where we find the most contentment.

Room was old but very clean. Bedroom felt a little crowded with furniture, TV difficult to get channels, bed frame solid and mattress comfortable but was so scratched up it could have easily come from the local thrift store, need more outlets - especially at bedside.

Majority of staff friendly and helpful. Room quite small with colours/decor sympathetic to era.(Peach/orange/green) Clean bathroom with toiletries provided. Very comfortable bed. Public areas furnished to suit era. Coffee available in lobby for a few hours in the morning. Food in restaurant/ pub good value. Corrie in pub was a delight. Good base for a few days in Victoria. Easy walking to harbour area.
