Oswego Hotel Victoria

Hotel choices in Victoria can be a dilemma because to be downtown can lead you to tired hotels or the wildly overpriced. I’m a fan of the more boutique hotel option.
As a result of a pleasant intersection of personal connection and chance my family had the opportunity to stay at the Oswego, which is a 1.5 block walk from Bellville Street, which leads you easily to the Inner Harbour and the BC Parliament buildings.
We stayed on the top floor with stunning views, even on a grey day (see the photos) it’s a lovely view. You could really just hang out on that top floor for as long as you liked.
We had two meals at the The O Bistro — a dinner where I enjoyed the short rib and the vegetarian in the group enjoyed the ravioli. The breakfast/brunch was good with a decent eggs/bacon/toast hash browns. The Continental was also a hit, with the carnivore making a totally fair trade for some toast for some meat.
The top floor rooms are totally outfitted for self-sufficiency. The beds were supportive and there was everything you need.
A tip of the hat to the Oswego!
