My wife and I booked this B&B for a little vacation in Victoria after a family wedding in Surrey. The Pirouette is in Esquimalt just south of downtown Victoria, about a ten minute drive away. When we first arrived, our hostess Loraine met us and welcomed us into her house. We had booked the Sakura room with a king bed.... More

I have been to Cottage Pirouette four times and plan on continuing to stay there. The atmosphere is caring, comfortable and the interior elegant and well designed. The owner is particularly sympathetic. Once I arrived with a broken ankle and she was very helpful. She meets the needs of guests who have dietary restrictions and is generous with her time.... More

We stayed at Lorraine's Bed and Breakfast last August. Going to Victoria during high season was a challenge and we were happy to stay at her home. Just some minutes from downtown, a friendly hostess who recommended places to eat and sites to visit. A cup of tea was a nice welcome. The B&B has got affordable rooms. We walked... More

Thank you MunichMoira; We are thrilled when someone remembers their happy holiday experience and takes the time to share it with others. That Canada's west coast provided you with a refreshing ocean experience makes us even prouder for setting up our B & B here. A large portion of our business is return guests, so I guess we're doing something... More

What a lovely B&B we happened upon. On a whim we drove to Canada and didn't have lodging reservations but were so happy we landed here. We were warmly welcomed and made to feel right at home. The room was huge and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The backyard is a beautiful, regisitered eco habitat with space... More

My husband and I stayed for six nights over the Christmas week and received a special rate for the Camelia room. We thoroughly enjoyed Lorraine's warm personality and her invitation to allow us to come and go as we pleased. Breakfasts were most generous and delicious. Having a kitchenette available to the guests was a great convenience. The room on... More

We stayed there for two nights at cottage pirouette during the summer. From our longttrip in west canada (four weeks) this was, unfortunaltely, not the best location we stayed in, by far. The room, bathroom and location were quite old fashioned (with some broken items) and we didn't feel the welcome that one could expect from such B&B. Top of... More

Dear M76etM77; Thank you for taking the time to write your review. Our goal is to have 100% guest satisfaction, so I was sorry to hear that our property did not meet your expectations. I wish I had heard your concerns 5 months ago during your stay, and I would have addressed them then. Cottage Pirouette was built in 1939,... More

Clean, quiet and very friendly atmosphere. The bed was comfortable, nice quiet area. Public areas were fine, and the Hostess was welcoming. Bathroom was clean. Did not rent an en suite unit, but shared the bathroom with one other guest with no problems. We will stay again, and recommend to friends!

Spent two nice nights at this B and B. Excellent breakfast, comfy bed. Host was very considerate and attentive. Place to park my bicycle inside - somehow this can be an issue elsewhere. Short distance from downtown by bike and not far at all to beautiful view of the Strait.
