 Rising regally on the banks of Victoria's Inner Harbour and representing the centre of British Columbia's Capitol City, The Fairmont Empress has been completely restored to her turn-of-the-century beauty.
Throughout its history, The Fairmont Empress has played host to kings, queens, movie stars and many famous people. In 1919, Edward, Prince of Wales, waltzed into the dawn in the Crystal Ballroom. Rita Hayworth, Shirley Temple, Jack Benny, Pat O'Brien, Douglas Fairbanks, Katherine Hepburn, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Tallulah Bankhead, Roger Moore, John Travolta, Barbara Streisland, Harrison Ford and a host of others have also passed through its lobby.
While the Fairmont Empress displays the grandeur of a bygone era, her facilities and services meet the needs of today's traveler. Whether you are looking to experience a British tradition with their famous Afternoon Tea, relax in their exceptional Willow Stream Spa, go on an ocean bound whale watching adventure, or spend an afternoon browsing Victoria's quaint shops, the Fairmont Empress is an excellent choice.
