A flat-screen cable TV is provided in each uniquely decorated room at Abigail’s Hotel. Italian marble and antique features, such as a claw-foot bathtub, are offered in the bathroom. Select rooms offer a spa bath. Rooms can only be accessed via stairs. We loved the breakfast. Since it was reserved, we were able to enjoy a peaceful breakfast and the food on the menu was delicious. We appreciated the snack time and 24h coffee/tea station.

Overlooking Victoria’s beautiful Inner Harbour, this historic hotel features extensive spa treatments and a selection of on-site restaurants. The Royal British Columbia Museum is 5 minutes' walk away.

The Fairmont Empress Hotel’s elegantly decorated rooms offer a plush seating area and windows that open out. Each is equipped with cable TV and an in-room coffee maker. Fantastic pool and a small gym, but one that's open 24/7, and the pool and hot tub are open until 1am. Very kind and helpful staff. Room service available 24/7 as well which is almost surprising to find these days. Very comfortable and clean rooms and Le Labo products were greatly appreciated.

The hotel also offers free WiFi as well as a paid airport shuttle service. Hospitality over and above expectations. We ate out but shared a bottle of wine with our hosts on returning to the boat. Doo Pent a great evening laughing and getting to know each other. Amazing breakfast cooked by Bouchra. Would recommend Dan and Bouchra’s hospitality to everyone
