Victoria Hall at Queen's: Rooms & Fees

Victoria Hall may suit a student who wants to live on Main Campus, prefers a building with elevators, or wants several room-price options in one residence. Queen's lists 824 residents, 24 Dons, four passenger elevators, and five wings in the X-shaped building.

With 824 residents, Victoria offers a large-building setting. Consider whether you prefer that scale or a smaller residence, then compare room sharing, washrooms and the places you will visit each day. A building's size alone cannot tell you how noisy or sociable your particular floor will be.

Queen's describes classrooms, Tindall Field, and other residences as nearby. Leonard and Ban Righ dining halls are also nearby, while the Lazy Scholar retail dining location is inside Victoria. Students should map likely classes and services because 'Main Campus' alone does not establish the walking time for an individual timetable.

Queen's lists five room choices at Victoria Hall. The published 2026–27 academic-year totals range from $13,100.80 for a Loft Double to $18,795.80 for a Single. These are full residence totals rather than room-only prices: the university-wide fee schedule includes the deposit, mandatory meal plan, Residence Society fee, Good-to-Go and Flex Dollars, and residence insurance.

A lower price also changes the living arrangement. A Loft Double is still a shared room; the label does not promise extra communal space, a kitchenette, or an in-room washroom. Queen's warns that multi-occupancy labels describe bed spaces and that photos, tours, room sizes, furnishings, windows, and storage can vary.

The building page describes Victoria's bathroom type as single-user private washrooms. That means an individually used washroom in the shared residence environment; it does not mean every bedroom has an ensuite. Students should inspect the floor plan and available room attributes during self-selection rather than equate 'private' with attached to the room.

Victoria has kitchenettes with microwaves and fridges, common rooms that may include games, and laundry in the building. Rooms include an adjustable Twin XL bed, desk and chair, clothing storage, curtains, and waste bins. Students are told to bring Twin XL bedding, an optional fridge no larger than 3.5 cubic feet, plus a wireless router and ethernet cable because room internet is wired.

All rooms and hallways are listed as carpet-free. Queen's separate accessibility inventory identifies some Victoria rooms and washrooms with wheelchair-accessible features or visual alarms. Those entries document features in the inventory, not a promise that a particular room remains available. Residence Admissions matches approved needs to available rooms through the accommodation process.

Victoria Hall's 2026–27 building page lists a mixed-gender community and an Alcohol and Cannabis Not Preferred, or ACNP, option. Queen's classifies ACNP as a Unique Community rather than an LLC. Residents commit to building an environment free from alcohol, cannabis, and other drugs, with a Residence Don helping the floor establish its community expectations.

Queen's says it will meet all requests for this community. Applicants should still read the current application choices and room attributes because community locations can change between years. ACNP is a shared living commitment; the official description does not say that the entire Victoria Hall building follows those rules.

A Queen's residence guarantee is for a bed space, not Victoria Hall or any room style. Lottery-assigned selection times control which buildings and rooms remain visible. For 2026–27, LLC and Unique Community selection took place before general self-selection, while approved accommodation selection had its own dates.

Before the assigned time, rank Victoria's five room styles and several backup buildings. In the portal, check the floor, carpet-free attribute, room type, proximity to a lounge or washroom, and any community designation. Queen's says clicking Finalize Selection locks the room choice. Room changes do not replace careful selection: the current page says a change process opens in mid-September and availability depends on vacancies.
