Pros: Good breakfast options ; coffee, tea, juice, pastries, fruit, yougurt. Great location. Able to walk everywhere. Valet parking worth it ; $16/day anyways to park in the parkade nearby, so pay the $22 and they can park and bring you your car. Just call down or ask at front desk for when you want to pick it up.
Cons: Add more breakfast options. Or have restaurant open for some grill or griddle options.

Pros: We loved our stay at Hotel Rialto. The location is fantastic, it's in downtown Victoria and we were able to walk to pretty much everything except Butchart Gardens. Our room was clean and beautiful, the staff was helpful and friendly, and the food in the breakfast room was good. Parking was very close by in a reasonably priced garage (hourly, up to $12/day as of August 2015). I loved Victoria and plan to go back, and when I do I will stay at the Rialto!
Our toll-free reservations number: 1-800-663-5891.A warm welcome to you from all of us at the Chateau!

It was such a rainy day when I was there so it was nice that I could just go to the hotel restaurant. The food and drinks were fabulous! Right behind the Empress hotel and near shops.

The hotel is undergoing renovation. Staff support is inadequate. I checked in at night and found no drinking water in the room. I called the room service and waited 30 min before I went down to front desk to get my supply.

Pros: Rooms were very nice and the location was quite convenient to everything. I was in a queen suite with two nice tvs, refrigerator and microwave, and very comfortable beds. The walkout balcony was a bonus.
Cons: Valet parking could be difficult as there was only space for a few cars at a time. The bar at the bottom level was very popular, so much so that I wasn't allowed to enter as they were at capacity. I took my business elsewhere. The balcony door didn't seal super well, so there was a bit of a draft in that area.

Pros: This historic property welcomes you in the moment you step onto the property. The immediate attendance to your every need is immediately relaxing and makes you feel wanted. The location could not be better with the entire harbor visible form the front and every floor above as you exit your elevator. The entire city downtown is vibrant and easily walkable with something for every tase and experience.t
Cons: The room was a bit warm and may not have had air conditioning. We simply opened the windows and used a portable fan form the oversized closet area.
Excellent

Pros: We spent Christmas there and they provided us with a stocking on our door for Christmas Day. The staff was extremely helpful at every opportunity, and very responsive to our needs.
Cons: My only smallest complaint would be the expense. The hotel is very expensive, but the service largely drives that expense and it really made for a wonderful experience for me and my wife.

Cons: Reserved a room with a king bed. We were traveling from Seattle via the clipper that couldn't sail due to the marine forecast. Once we realized our trip was going to take 7 hours via buss to reach the hotel, I called to notify that we would be arriving late and was assured my room would be ready and that we would have a king bed, not 2 doubles. We arrived at the hotel and no king beds were available. But then the representative said I could upgrade for $40 more per night and beaten down by the 7 hour trip I agreed to pay the fee. Then we get the bill and it was $60 + $4.85 PST + $1.21 MRDT + $3.03 GST. I understand that the taxes are what the are but should have been quoted them and the hotel should have honored the quote made on arrival. I was offered $10 per night discount by the manager but still feel mislead. As a Marriott rewards customer for years and one who has stayed at Marriott properties all over the world, I will not be returning to this property. The maid service was also poor. The room was not vacuumed nor were the sheets ever changed on our 3 night stay. Additionally when we arrived there was left over spoiled food in the fridge. Lastly they did not replace plates and silverware in the kitchenette and when we came back to the room with takeout, we had to eat out of plastic containers. I do not recommend this property. If you are accustom to Marriott service and hospitality, you will not find it here.

Pros: The bed was comfortable & the room was clean. It's a nice looking hotel.
Cons: They charge $11/day to park 4 blocks away - wow! They have a small area in front of the hotel to pull your car in to drop bags off. But 2 cabs were parked there when I got there, so I had to walk 4 blocks with my bags, through crowds of people. Ridiculous situation. Also, the bar/restaurant is too small for the hotel.
