Proudly Canadian Owned and OperatedBest Family-Friendly Hotels in Victoria
Victoria, BC is one of Canada's most walkable and family-friendly cities. The compact Inner Harbour area puts you within strolling distance of the Royal BC Museum, whale watching tours, Fisherman's Wharf, and the iconic Fairmont Empress. It's the perfect city for a family weekend or week-long getaway.
When choosing a family hotel in Victoria, prioritize location — the Inner Harbour and James Bay areas let you explore on foot, which is ideal with kids. Look for hotels with kitchenettes (handy for bottle prep and snacks) and those offering suite-style rooms for extra space.
