Steeped in tradition and rising regally on the banks of Victoria’s Inner Harbour, the Fairmont Empress underwent a $45 million restoration in 1989 designed to restore the hotel to its original, turn-of-the-century elegance. All the guest rooms were renovated, yet a little bit of modernity crept in; a health club, spa and indoor swimming pool were added and onlY enhance the Fairmont’s offerings. Wiflow Stream Spa has a huge number of imaginative treatments and packages available to guests. Of course, there’s always afternoon tea in the hotel’s magnificent tea lobby, surrounded by tapestries, moldings and polished, hardwood floors. For those with more outdoors y tastes, check out whale watching, mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, or endless rounds of golf nearby.
