Definitely Coming Back

We really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be coming back. The hotel is very pet friendly and comfortable. As we visit Victoria to visit family it is great to have a suite instead of a regular hotel room, people can come and visit in comfort, there are enough chairs and a place to eat without everyone having to squeeze onto the hotel bed.

You gotta stay here!

All the staff in the hotel and adjoining restaurant, Aegir Room, were so courteous and helpful. The room was very bright and clean. Loved the kitchen space. Picked up groceries nearby to make breakfast. Restaurant meals were delicious. Great options for gluten-free ( my husband is Celiac). Easy check in and out. Located on a quietier street, walkable to restaurants, attractions water taxi. Would definitely stay here again.

Oswego was Wonderful!

The staff were exceptional - friendly, intuitive, professional. The Oswego's location was perfect, just a couple blocks from the Clipper terminal and a wonderful "home base" for our Girlfriend's Getaway. Room was immaculate, well appointed. We had a studio suite for five days and it exceeded our expectations. Easily walk everywhere in the beautiful city of Victoria. Can't wait to return to our new favorite hotel in our new favorite city.
