It’s official. We have found a place where families can have an adventure without leaving the hotel!
Hotel Zed Victoria is unlike anything we’ve ever experienced before. The hotel is a kaleidoscope of colours and activities. They have declared themselves to be “rebels against the ordinary”, and it shows throughout every element of design. Nothing is ordinary – everything is extraordinary.
Top ten reasons families should stay at Hotel Zed Victoria:
1. The name: Hotel Zed pays homage to Canadian pronunciation of the last letter of the Alphabet… from Eh to Zed – Canadians are proud and this hotel celebrates that!
2. The Zedinator – Yes, they could have said, “Hotel with pool and waterslide” but they went above and beyond to give it a cool name and make sure it’s the biggest slide they could fit! Be warned, you have to test it out no matter how old you are! This hotel is for kids of all ages!
Hey Kids, go play on the typewriters!!! Hands on learning and a throwback to another time = recipe for fun!
7. Bored? There are no excuses to be bored at any time, and they aren’t afraid to remind you of this! Every room comes with a full bulletin board and a checklist of things to do around the hotel. My favorite afternoon idea – head to the lobby and play board games!
Are you Bored? It’s your own fault then! This hotel has lots for kids to do and isn’t afraid to remind you to check it all out!
8. The phones – Even the simplest ideas have been amplified into something fun. Old rotary phones replace the traditional models and our kids asked, “What is that” before trying it out.
9. The VW Bus – Want to sneak off site and head to downtown Victoria to check out the sites? Why not take the free VW shuttle around town? They will book you in and tour you around all the major sites, and come back and pick you up at any time! A fun, free, family friendly adventure… I love it!
The Staff at Hotel Zed were constantly going above and beyond to make sure guests had everything they needed at the hotel and for their city adventures.
The only challenge our family faced with this hotel is that it was SO MUCH FUN the kids didn’t want to leave! We had to bribe them to check out Victoria and all of the awesome activities and adventures that were around the hotel! Check out our video of our visit:
Looks awesome. Fun take on an old style of vacationing. Loved the video clip too!
