Located on the southernmost tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is a top-rated four-season destination - surrounded by the scenic Pacific Northwest Coast and home to island rainforests, historical landmarks, and farm-to-table dining experiences.

Why Victoria?

See Victoria in a Whole New Light

Enjoy the beautiful blooms of the Garden City throughout Spring or come for rest and relaxation during the cooler months.

Connect with a cultural guide and learn the heritage of the Lekwungen peoples, whose traditional territory the hotel stands, that The Parkside Hotel & Spa acknowledges and respects. Victoria is full of authentic and diverse experiences which makes it a highly memorable and favorite destination for all who visit.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Jane Goodall Holding A Small Animal

"The Parkside Hotel & Spa hosted Dr. Jane Goodall and our events team during our trip to Victoria in 2022. It was Dr. Goodall’s first time back in Canada in 2.5 years due to COVID, and we were all wary of health and safety, as well as travel exhaustion after being back on the road after all this time.

We could not have been happier at the Parkside. We were constantly remarking on how the Parkside is an example of how spaces can be carbon neutral and feel luxurious. Our rooms were warm and welcoming. Every single staff member was kind, generous, and helpful at all hours of the day - going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. They even made sure Dr. Goodall had delicious vegan meals from nearby restaurants, and freshly baked bread in her room when she arrived. The energy and spirit of the place was comforting and lively; and the atrium was like nothing we had ever seen. Dr. Goodall and our entire team had a splendid stay and would be back in a heartbeat. Thank you, Parkside!"

The meeting room we use is bright with fantastic views and outdoor patio space for small group meetings or just getting some fresh air. The front desk staff are very friendly and helpful and the Event management team takes care of all our needs. Highly recommend using The Parkside for any meeting or event.”
