About this property

Stylish condo in the BEST Location! Spectacular Views, Secure Parking, Laundry

Our Fisgard Flat @ the Union is a luxuriously appointed one-bedroom condo in the Union Building, located in the heart of downtown Victoria, BC.

You'll love our perfect "Design District" location 1 block from the inner harbour. From our suite, look out at the beautiful sights of Chinatown: lucky red-paper lanterns, gas-flame lamps and the famous Gates of Harmonious Interest (built as “a permanent monument to mark the harmony of the multicultural society which all Canadians enjoy.”) The Union Building was built in 2014 and spans the entire block between Chinatown to the north and Market Square to the south.

Aside from the sights of Chinatown, our top-floor suite affords a spectacular north-facing view over the heritage brick buildings of Old Town, to the inner harbour and Vancouver Island mountains beyond. Enjoy spectacular sunsets from the balcony and the living room's comfortable leather furniture.

The 9-foot ceilings and full-height windows allow lots of natural light. The living room offers designer touches - such as the gloss-laminate coffee table with a lift-top - and affords ample space to relax on the leather sectional couch. The dining room is romantic and cozy with the wall-mounted fireplace.

The bedroom has a comfy queen-size bed. The condo is best suited for 2 people, however two extra guests can be accommodated on the queen sofa-bed, and we also have a Pak'N'Play + bedding for a baby (please note the height of the balcony and its furniture make our unit unsuitable for toddlers and small children!!)

The full kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need to prepare gourmet meals.

In-suite laundry is provided, and other amenities include telephone, cable + HDTV, Netflix, free Wifi internet, board games, and 1 parking spot in our enclosed, underground parkade.

The harbour ferry stops one block away ... take a tour of the Gorge waterway or go for fish & chips at Fisherman's Wharf.

There are numerous excellent restaurants within a few blocks, including Mo;le, Jam, Swan's Brewpub, II Terrazzo, ulla, Green Cuisine Vegetarian, Canoe Brewpub, Brasserie L'Ecole, to name just a few.

We will meet you upon arrival (we don't do self check-in), to ensure that you have everything you need and answer any questions that you may have. We will be happy to send you info and links prior to your stay, for everything from our recommended restaurant list to transportation info (even bike and kayak rentals)... just ask!

Enjoy your stay!

Absolutely Fabulous Apartment in Great Location

The apartment was exactly as shown in the photographs and had everything you could possibly need and more. Karen was very responsive to communication and met us there and showed us around and told us how everything worked, and how to get in and out of the building and car park. The kitchen was really well equipped with an oven and hob, kettle, toaster, dishwasher, coffee machine, Nespresso machine and loads of crockery, cutlery and glasses. There was also a washing machine, tumble dryer, iron and ironing board. TV with cable, Netflix etc. dining table, log effect fire. I could go on! The location was fantastic, right on China town, the best coffee shop in Victoria next door (Bean Around the World) and on the other side an absolute gem of a patisserie (La Roux). Inner harbour was a 15 minute walk and Fisherman's Warf about 25 minutes. The main shopping area is minutes away on foot, and there are some lovely shops right next to the patisserie. Butchart gardens was about half an hour away, as was the ferry terminal at Schwarz Bay. I cannot say enough about this accommodation, I absolutely loved it and could have just stayed forever 😂 If you’re considering whale watching while in Victoria I’d highly recommend Prince of Whales, we did a sunset whale watching tour and it was amazing. We saw humpback whales and two groups of Orca which merged together into a pod of 6. Fantastic boat, great facilities and excellent team looking after you. Thanks again Karen, it was fabulous.

Perfection in Victoria

What a wonderful stay we had at this well appointed condominium in the heart of town! Safe, secure, immaculately clean and well appointed in every way. We could and did walk everywhere around town. The condo is centrally located to the shopping district, seaside walks, restaurants of every culture just about! When stepping out of the building there are incredible coffee shops, French bakery and China town is just steps away as well. Did I mention the secured parking garage under the condominium? We never took the car out the entire time we were there, but it was nice to know the car was safely parked and not on the street. We will definitely be back! Thank you Karen for your kindness and help getting us set up in your beautiful condominium!

Best Location!

If this condo is available for your dates book it now! It is exactly as the pictures show. Safe neighborhood, secure building, clean and well taken care of. Condo is well stocked with dishes, utensils, spices, laundry soap, shampoo/conditioner, and lots of extras we didn’t expect. The location can’t be beat with proximity to Wharf Street and so many excellent restaurants just out your front door. Our recommendations: Finns for dinner, Swans Brew Pub for a cold beer. Breakfast at Shanzee’s Biscuit Cafe or Jam Cafe as both are excellent. For a simpler coffee shop breakfast try the Sour Pickle Cafe just around the corner. For lunch or dinner a must is the Wor Won Ton at Fan Tan Cafe. Sightseeing at Beacon Hill Park, Fisherman’s Wharf, and the Harbour Air Panoramic tour were all excellent! The owners and property manager are great and gave lots of excellent recommendations.

Traumhaft in Victoria

Dieses Apartment ist wärmsten zu empfehlen. Es liegt traumhaft, mitten in Downtown Victoria.Alles ist Fußläufig sehr gut zu erreichen. Die Ausstattung lässt keine Wünsche offen und das Apartment ist SEHR geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Auch die Betten sind äußerst bequem. Abgerundet wird das ganze durch einen eigenen , gesicherten Tiefgaragenplatz, von dem es sich bequem mit dem Fahrstuhl zum Apartment fahren lässt. Alles in allem mehr als 5* wert!

Victoria March 2020

The property was ideal. Given the Covid19 issue, we ended up doing lots of home cooking so we were thankful for the functional kitchen. There was also an abundance of supplies from basic food stuffs to shampoo. It’s so central a location - an easy walk to the Market on Yates. We were most impressed with Margaret, the manager. She phoned to check on our stay and shuttled us to the airport at 4:30 am. She even had 2 face masks for us. Thanks so much!
