The hotel was nice and in a good location. There aren’t a lot of amenities but they have a nice outdoor seating area. Most of the hotel staff speak Spanish, so make sure you know a few phrases. The staff were welcoming and very helpful. Unfortunately, this hotel was strict on the number of towels, so it was difficult to get more than two towels for a two person room.

The room was small but well designed using up every inch of the space to provide the room amenities although there was no space on the vanity to put makeup etc. I would suggest that a shelf be added above the sink. It was quite modern and seemed to have been recently renovated. I didn’t like that the windows were high and did not allow much sunlight into the room. The front desk person said they were polarized to save energy, I guess which is a good thing but not to the detriment of daylight. The location was not as bad as the reviews made it sound. We were able to experience some of the local Arubian culture at the nearby square which just put a bow on my vacation. It was appropriate for our one night stay.

The room was extremely small. The bed took up the bulk of the room leaving very little walking space around it. Opening my one large suitcase took up all the space between the bed and the door. The walls were dirty. There was a mark on the pillowcase such that I was unsure if it were a stain or if it was not clean (covered it with a clean towel). The TV only provided service for a short time. The evening staff was nice. The lobby and eating area were decorated and neat. Not located in a tourist area.

The hotel is about a 5 minute ride to/from the airport. Check in was simple and my room was ready when I arrived. The room was nice and clean. I only needed it to sleep and relax. There's not a lot directly in the area of the hotel but it's about a 10 minute straight walk to the downtown area where all the cruise ships dock. Plenty of restaurants and a few small (public) beaches away from the crowds near the resorts was perfect. There's a nice breakfast/brunch spot in the hotel that has really good food and not too expensive. Overall, it was a great stay for cheap.

Hotel is ok for the price, it's clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are on the small side, and we have one of the rooms that were not yet renovated so definitely feel a bit dated. The location is slightly far from major establishments and it does get quite hot to walk 10 minutes to various places under the sun. Overall it’s good for the price, and the hotel was able to accommodate us at last minute when we have to fly in a day early to avoid a major snowstorm where everywhere else were either full or outrageously expensive.

I really enjoyed my stay at Victoria City Hotel and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others with the following information:

Location: Victoria City is a little ways out of Oranjestad in an area that looks a little bit run down. There are great restaurants very close (Peanuts), but overall you probably won't be spending a ton of time right nearby. The street is lively and as other reviews mention there will be overnight noise from cars and a local nightlife spot.

Room: Small, but clean with a comfy bed, full bathroom and everything you need to be comfortable.

Property: The rooftop lounge is amazing and the 2nd floor is setup to easily flow from inside to outside. This area was well used by guests and is a great spot to make yourself a tea or coffee, grab some water and hang out to plan your day or relax after a day of exploring. The hotel is laid out with rooms on 2 floors and is connected to a restaurant from the lobby. I recommend the restaurant for breakfast - its a great meal and they have friendly staff!

To note: I saw this in some of the other reviews as well; for some reason the bathroom windows have clips installed that will not allow them to fully close and be sealed shut. I assume this is to help with moisture management. I was on the 2nd floor so this wasn't a security concern for me, I saw some people on the first floor mentioning windows that couldn't close/lock and this would be a security deal breaker for me and also affected overnight street noise.

The breakfast was top-notch—fresh, homemade, and prepared with so much care and love. It felt personal and authentic, not just a standard hotel meal.

The people here are fantastic, the rooms are modern, stylish, and very affordable, which makes the experience even better. Since it’s a new place, everything feels fresh, clean, and thoughtfully designed.

Room VERY clean, immaculate, BEDS were great (a few more softer pillows?), but needed more attention to rotating towels/wash clothes. They've been renovating and our room still needed a clothes rack installed in one of closets. Breakfast was from a menu and was very tasty, though sometimes a bit slow. Safe neighborhood. There is no elevator. Very basic yet classy. 110 volt outlets. Wish I could have spent more time relaxing on the 2nd floor patio! Would stay there again. Felt a great rapport with the staff!
