Excellent Stay

We often stay at the Empress so know what to expect. However we had our son, his partner and their young daughter with us. They got to experience the Gold lounge, the pool, the stunning view of the harbour and cocktails. Short but excellent visit.

Lovely Local Stay

We stayed here for my birthday weekend and upgraded to a slightly bigger, deluxe room. So glad we did that – it was so spacious! Room was nicely updated and clean. We loved being able to pop down to the Q Bar for cake and a drink so easily.

Restful relaxing and enjoyable

Wonderful Hotel

We recently stayed at the Fairmont Empress and had a great stay. We had a beautiful room overlooking the harbour and the service was excellent. I can’t say enough good things about the staff and their attention to detail that made our stay at the Empress wonderful.

Amazing Stay. Deeply Appreciated

High stress time at work. But when I arrived at the hotel I felt the warm sense of care and relaxation wash over myself. The Gold Floor at the Empress is the most perfect hotel experience possible. Sublime views, luxurious spaces, and caring warm people that truly care. My expectation are high, and I always come back. And it is wonderful every time.
