I spent two nights at the Oswego Hotel in Victoria, and it turned into such a memorable little getaway. I booked a standard suite, but they surprised me with an upgrade to a top‑floor two‑bedroom suite. The room had panoramic views, I could see the water and the Parliament building right from this huge balcony. The suite itself was super comfortable and relaxing. I loved having a full kitchen and a deep soaking tub. Everything was clean, quiet, and felt like a mini spa. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming, and I felt really well taken care of. I’d stay here again for sure.

We almost always stay at Oswego Hotel when we are in Victoria. The hotel is conveniently located, the atmosphere is warm and friendly and the room is clean and modern. We discovered a cute reading room on the second floor which we hadn't noticed before--a nice cozy place to sit and read if you are needing a place to read without disturbing your travel mate.

The entire place was gorgeous, spotless. (I stayed in a basic suite.) Pricing was great. Staff were courteous. Breakfast was tasty. Check in was effortless. I did find that I heard a lot of street noise, as well as other guests coming and going, and the mattress wasn’t comfortable at all. My experience was otherwise wonderful, just didn’t sleep well.
