Helm's
Inn - Snowbirds
Victoria has a
wonderful moderate climate that usually offers snow free
living year round. This is one of the many reasons that
the Helm's Inn has become a favourite winter destination
for Snowbirds escaping colder climes elsewhere.
We are a small
friendly hotel located one block from Victoria's exciting
Inner Harbour and Downtown. Adjacent buildings house the
Royal BC Museum and National Geographic's Imax Theatre
The nearby BC Legislative Building provides an ongoing
comedy in action for guests with an absurd sense of humour.
Our central location
offers the opportunity to abandon your car and walk to
Victoria's intriguing shops, sites, attractions and quaint
restaurants. All forms of transportation to and from the
Helm's Inn are easy and readily available.
Helm's Inn guests enjoy a 100% smoke free environment.
Our rooms have been recently redecorated and refurbished
with quality furniture, bedding and beds. All our rooms offer
plush duvets, colour cable TV, direct dial telephones (local
calls are free), refrigerator, microwave oven, coffeemaker,
a teakettle and much more. Studio suites come equipped with
an efficiency kitchenette for those who prefer to prepare
their own meals. We also have units with separate bedrooms
and/or full kitchens for those who wish the utmost in convenience.
Coin operated laundry facilities are provided
on site. There is a special little room off the lobby which
contains a computer. Here guest can check e-mail and browze
the internet free of charge. Our atmosphere is best described
as warm and cozy and friendly.
Helm's Inn offers reduced rates to those very
special winter guests that choose to stay with us for extended
periods of time. Many of our guests come year after year
but there is usually room for more. Please book early.
