Great place! Loved our giant bathroom. Parking a little inconvenient. But really not that much of an issue! Once we checked in we were walking everywhere anyways so our car remained parked.

The property is located in the heart of Victoria and is in walkable distance to a lot of places of interest. It is an older building which has been renovated tastefully, and the rooms are spacious and equipped with excellent bathrooms. Very comfortable and quiet even though it is in the centre of the city. I have stayed a number of times at the Rialto over the course of the last six years and never had a bad experience. It has nice restaurant and bar on the main floor. I can only recommend the Rialto for anyone who travles to Victoria
