Fairmont Empress
I had an absolutely amazing experience at the Fairmont. Great staff, very good rooms, excellent service and location. And must have afternoon tea. It’s expensive but I tried other places and nothing compares to the tea experience at the empress.

Sandman Hotel Victoria
Very helpful staff, nice location. Could use some upgrading with the amenities. It's 2025, there should be a smart TV.
