The Spotlight on Amethyst Inn

A Charming, Peaceful Stay in the Heart of Victoria

Amethyst Inn is a cozy, heritage-style bed and breakfast located in the quiet Rockland neighborhood of Victoria. Just a short walk from Craigdarroch Castle and a quick drive from popular live music venues like Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre, it offers a relaxed, homey vibe perfect for travelers looking to unwind after a big night out. Free Wi-Fi, private parking, and beautifully appointed rooms with soundproofing make it a comfortable and convenient base for your concert getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key, and Amethyst Inn delivers. It's only about 1.4 miles from major venues, so you can catch a ride or even walk to your show. After the music ends, you’ll be thankful for the quiet residential setting, which makes for a restful recovery. Flexible check-in from 2:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM gives you a bit of breathing room, especially after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends enjoying a weekend of music and sightseeing
  • Solo travelers checking off bucket-list artists
  • Couples looking for a romantic, concert-filled escape
  • Fans who appreciate peace and quiet after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value and charm

Food and Drink Options

Start your day (or late morning) right with a hearty American breakfast featuring warm dishes, pastries, and fruit—ideal after a night out. While there’s no on-site restaurant, the inn is close to downtown Victoria where you'll find plenty of walkable dining options and casual late-night spots. No 24/7 room service, but the nearby choices make up for it.

Nightlife Options

While Amethyst Inn itself is more about quiet charm than nightlife, you're just a short distance from downtown bars, pubs, and lounges serving up live music and local craft drinks. Whether you're into dive bars or wine bars, you'll find something to suit your post-show mood.

What People Say

Guests rave about the welcoming hosts, clean and spacious rooms, and the inn’s peaceful ambiance. Many mention the convenience of location—close to the action but far enough for a good night’s sleep. The breakfast also earns high marks for variety and quality.

Areas for Improvement

If you're hoping for modern hotel amenities like a fitness center or all-night room service, this might not be your spot. And while it's a bed and breakfast, not a full-service hotel, the charm more than makes up for it.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable base near Victoria’s music scene, Amethyst Inn delivers charm, location, and relaxation in equal measure.

Affordable option close to downtown...

Liked: Two pm check-in is a rare thing these days and was much appreciated. Rachel was very welcoming. Room was comfortable, bed was comfortable and decor was as expected for an inn of this vintage. Breakfast was also very good. We particularly liked the location as we were visiting friends in Oak Bay.

Disappointing, expensive and the reviews...

Liked: Large room.
Disliked: Unsafe entry to property, room on 3rd floor - so many stairs, no lift. Do not book if you can’t carry your stuff up a lot of stairs. No shower, just very low bath.

Excellent breakfast in victorian house

Liked: An excellent breakfast in a victorian setting.
Disliked: Our room was on the top floor with a steep stair - not ideal with heavy luggage but one can not expect an elevator in a victorian house
