The History
The original Heart House was started by Jim and Dorothy McDonald. They leased a house on Kings Road and, using their own funds, established the first Victoria Heart House. Their dream of a permanent Victoria Heart House finally came true with the completion of the present building in December 1988. On January 17, 1989, the Victoria Heart House was officially opened by the Premier and dedicated to the people of British Columbia.
The efforts of this Society are endorsed and supported by the cardiac surgeons and cardiologists at the Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria.
By Design
The Victoria Heart House is designed as a Bed & Breakfast accommodation intended to be your “home away from home” ensuring your stay is as comfortable as possible. The house provides a friendly, supportive, relaxing and non-smoking atmosphere and is conveniently located a short walking distance to Royal Jubilee Hospital. The house has a large bright living room, dining room and kitchen. There are six bedrooms, each with either a queen, a double or twin beds. There is an outdoor patio and garden for the added enjoyment of our guests.
