Absolutely Gorgeous!!! Victoria is a wonderful city to visit - but the Fairmont Empress made us feel like royalty! I hope our next trip is 2 weeks long, so we can enjoy our stay that much longer!!!
Highly Recommend Staying Here! :-)

Very elegant and nice, both inside and out. We did not stay for long but were left with the impression that we had made a good choice of where to stay.
Quite nice rooms. Always cleaned and re-stocked (which is what we expected.)
If we return to Victoria, we will most likely stay here again. Great location, and pleasant, relaxing stay. The ...

Although the location of this hotel is perfect for a visit to Victoria the hotel certainly leaves much to be desired. The first room we were given was very dirty, including the bathroom. The furniture in the room is very cheap and looks absolutely nothing like the pictures on the internet. We called the Housekeeping Manager and we were moved to a different room but this hotel is over priced and over rated.

It seems that the hotel (Management) once they have you will try to get as much out of you as possible. One ...

The Fairmont Empress is one of the finest hotels on the North American continent. Some of the most beautiful grounds, gardens, and greenery you will ever see. Fabulous staff, immaculate rooms, and the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. Built in 1908, it was recently renovated with all the modern appointments without losing any of its old ...

It was the beginning of the month of June-- Summer was not quite there yet and Victoria still had a touch of Spring.

My family and I spent 12 nights at the Fairmont Empress. It was a dream to the six of us. We booked three seperate rooms and each one was spacious, tastefully (albeit in an old fashioned manner) decorated and equipped with two ...
