HIGHLY-ACCLAIMED
Canada’s ‘Castle on the Coast’, the Fairmont Empress is both a highly-acclaimed hotel and a National Historic Site, sitting proudly at the heart of Vancouver Island’s most vivacious city.
The Empress is rightly named – it has a stately presence that reigns over Victoria’s sparkling Inner Harbour with regal authority. For more than a century it has offered guests a genuinely warm welcome, combined with classic levels of service and contemporary refinements. It has won award after award – including Condé Nast and Travel + Leisure distinctions – and delivers the ideal setting for an active family adventure or romantic couples retreat.
PERFECTLY PLACED
Make it part of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Canada and you’ll be perfectly placed to revel in the glittering harbour side, the local attractions, nightlife, shopping, year-round gardens, tours and sightseeing of wonderful Victoria. Back at the hotel, you can dip into signature West Coast experiences at the Willow Stream Spa, sample Pacific Northwest cuisine in the ‘Q at the Empress’ restaurant and experience the beloved tradition of afternoon tea in the sophisticated Lobby Lounge.
