"Super fun and amazing experience highly recommend"

We had a blast at Hotel Zed. I love midcentury to 70s decor so this place was a dream. Grandma's Basement is a must! We didn't have time to watch a movie down there but we will next time. The suite was a great layout for three adults and one teen. The Ruby has great food and the staff all around are awesome. The pool and hot tub are original (I'm guessing) but well kept. One of the warmer hotel pools I've been in. Can't recommend this place enough!

"Super Vintage little motel with lots of character and fabulous staff"

This little motel may well be a Motel 6 reborn, accommodations where I spent many amazing vacations with my family growing up. So much nostalgia, so much work went into curating this quaint and cozy motel. Don't expect all the modern amenities, value the character and the history. Make sure you visit “Grandmas Basement”….a true reflection of my mom's living room in the early 70's (minus the pool table, which we will take advantage of next time!) Across the street from the Mayfair Mall and a short drive to the hospital (the reason we were in Victoria) and a short drive to downtown. I definitely recommend this little treasure. Pool, waterslide, hot tub, sauna, backyard with firepit and onsite diner were all amenities available but our trip was simply for medical reasons. But next time! And thank you to all the staff we came into contact with….you were all lovely😊.

The first ever Hotel Zed, Hotel Zed Victoria has it all. Just ten minutes from the downtown core, you can catch a ride for free in our vintage VW shuttle vans. Want to explore on your own? We have free bike and longboard rentals. (Kids bikes and tandem bikes, too!) Secretly, we are the people behind Accent Inns (our cousin chain with five hotels in BC) and we had this crazy idea of creating a funky hotel that wasn't pretentious. You know, a place that was super cool and kick ass, but totally down-to-earth. Fun, playful and approachable, that's who we are. Different room types like Zed 2-Beds, Queen for a Night, King for a Night, Sweet Suites, Cottage and ZedStream (a funky private sanctuary in a completely retrofitted vintage Airstream trailer)

Local Attractions

In case you haven't heard, Victoria is a super cool destination with the best bars, restaurants and more things to do than you can ever pack in one trip. (We recommend the Goat Stampede.) Hotel Zed is centrally located between downtown and uptown. It's just a short, free 5 minute drive to downtown in our vintage VW shuttle buses. An experience unto itself and not to be missed!. We are one short block away from the Galloping Goose trail which leads cyclists and pedestrians over the strikingly beautiful Selkirk trestle, crossing the Gorge waterway into downtown Victoria. It's a gorgeous 10 minute bike ride into downtown or a 20 minute walk. Directly across the street is Victoria's Mayfair Shopping Centre, known for its fashion slant and then just 5 blocks north is the brand new outdoor Uptown Shopping Centre with hot stores such as H&M, Forever 21, BCBG and scads of great local stores. Of course you'll want to head to Victoria's downtown where you'll find a wide selection of local boutiques.
