  I gave a 3 star, because I bought a ticket to the tour specifically to go inside, since you cannot go in otherwise. Most of the tour was outside (which we can see for free) then we went into about three rooms in the castle and after, it ended.

  Beautiful castle, wonderful manicured grounds, and lovely Japanese gardens to visit here, don't forget to visit the military museum and if you have time walk the many trails around the grounds!

  Great place to spend the day. The site has extensive walking paths and you can visit the formal gardens and Hayley Castle.

  Just ask the roaming, resident peacocks... Hatley Castle and the estate are an exotic and impressive university location. The Royal Roads University, formerly Canada's western military college, is especially renowned for environmental, business, leadership and management education, although not limited to just those offerings. There is impressive academic rigour and leading edge academic work done here. When done the day's work or taking a break, wandering the gardens, beaches, trails, woods offers a natural and beautiful break from mundane cares. Hatley Castle is also a popular venue for weddings, small conferences and group gatherings. The castle, the grounds and the university are well worth visiting when you are in the greater Victoria region. The peacocks will welcome you.

  My review to go visit this Castle and the grounds is 5 stars. It's absolutely beautiful and worth while to see.

  Now if you are considering going on the tour there are a few things to you need to know. If you are wanting to strictly go inside, my friend and I felt it was not worth $20 CAD each. If you are interested in the history of the house then I would say yes it is worth it, because they only quickly mentioned the X-men and other movies that were made there one time during the tour. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history.

  It's beautiful inside. I'd be careful though. It seems to blow up ever 2 or 3 years. Also there's a bunch of underground passageways just under it. Almost looks like a base of a group of popular superheroes
