We were greeted by Lei (sp) one of the owners of The Craigmyle. She is lovely and warm and gave us a tour of the unique and comfortable common areas we could use during our stay. The room we booked was small but the updated bathroom was welcomed. We recommend The Craigmyle for a quaint historical stay next door to the Craigdarroch Castle. You can ask for a larger room when booking. The location is walkable to the Greater Victoria Art Gallery which was great for us as we attended an art exhibition opening there.
