Quality Inn Waddling Dog

Comfy big rooms, decent breakfast. Liquor store, gas station, McDonald’s just beside the place. Great place to stay if you wanna catch the ferry the next day, 10-15 minute drive away. Other than that pretty standard

Nice and good location

Quite dated but clean. Bathroom is small. Our door did not have a safety lock as it had been broken off. The breakfast was very nice. The staff were all extremely nice and very helpful. There are no elevators, so reserve a first floor if you can’t do the stairs. They say Clint Eastwood stayed here. I find that awesome! There is a restaurant connected but we did not visit the restaurant. Nice stay with comfy beds.

Beautifully refurbished hotel. Pleasant and helpful reception. Good size room with new modern fittings. Breakfast was good with reasonable selection. One of the best stops on our 32 day road trip including all sorts of establishments. Would definitely stay again.

I love the old English atmosphere, so I was immediately attracted to this Inn. Quality Inn has also been a line I have had good luck with. I lived in Victoria 40 years ago for 10 years, this Inn is an icon in Saanichton. The other reasons I chose it were that it was close to Butchart Gardens where we were going that day, the price was reasonable compared with the outrageous rates these days, and breakfast was provided and in their lovely library as well. We were only there for one night, so wasn't looking for pools and gyms, etc. We found the room to be renovated, lovely and clean and the beds and pillows very comfortable. I was appreciative of breakfast but I have advised them I think their waffles are being cooked a bit too long. There were muffins and English muffins there, but I just like a piece of toast in the morning, maybe I was just too late. There was no tea in the room, and I would next time bring my own cream, as the whitener did nothing, compared to the usual disgusting coffee mate, lol. The staff were wonderfully accommodating and they even found my missing mouth guard and sent it back to me. Having a pub and liquor store on site, I'm sure, is a bonus for a lot of people. I would definitely stay there again.

Not sure why this has a low rating! Booked 1 night away, the inn has a warm cozy cottage feeling with cheerful and friendly staff. The room was spacious, super comfy king size bed, modern conveniences, no road noise, pet friendly. Hot continental breakfast had a great variety for anyone. Inn has a popular pub attached, and there are other food choices around for any budget. Great spot for catching a flight, early ferry, or just out of town.

We chose to stay here based on convenience and something a bit different. A bit pricey for a place w/o a pool/hot tub/or exercise room but the ambience makes up for it on this occasion. From the sight of the place inside and out and the smell inside ( like old wood with a touch of wood smoke?), you felt like you were stepping back in time or at least settling into a warm relaxing environment. The room was clean and comfortable, front desk service friendly and efficient. We faced the intersection so traffic noise was a bit loud at times ( esp if someone wanted to hammer their gas peddle to the floor ) but not over bearing. The breakfast was well rounded but for missing my whole wheat bread for toast, and in a lovely setting. Walking opportunities near the bldg were enjoyable including gorging on in season Black berries, and a short drive got you to most other amenities like Victoria/Sidney, Butchart and Butterfly Gardens, and the ferry. The in house pub offered tasty and satisfying meals at a reasonable price.
