30th Anniversary

GlobaltravelD (Mexico) on Apr 19, 2024

We went for our 30th anniversary to Victoria and we reserved a Run of House, but as they knew it was a special date they upgraded us to a room with a beautiful view to the inner Harbour, and in addition they gave us a special present, great detail from the Manager, those are the special things that make a remarkable service. All the personnel is fantastic starting with bell boys, front desk, room cleaners, waiters, and so on, thanks a lot We had a wonderful anniversary, by the way they gave us a great recommendation for dinner. Best of the best.

Bucket List

O3907OIjuliam (Jackson, California) on Apr 19, 2024

This was a bucket list trip. My parents brought me back a key chain from the Empress when they stayed here in the 70’s. I have always wanted to stay there and have their High Tea. It was all worth the wait. Wonderful reception, friendly staff, and nice accommodations, made for a most pleasant experience. High Tea was elegant, delicious and lots of fun. Location is perfect. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit.
