Deluxe Food, Spa and Views at The Aerie in Victoria BC
The next time you visit Victoria, BC, perhaps to the grand Fairmont Empress right above the Inner Harbor, you may want to compliment your city stay with a visit to The Aerie Resort and Spa. Named Best Hotel in the Continental US and Canada by Travel and Leisure Magazine as well as voted the Best North American Resort by the Conde Nast Traveler Gold List, it is truly a word class escape. The Aerie is set 1500 feet above the Pacific Ocean allowing for views of Victoria, as well as the San Juan Islands and Washington State. 
Guests can enjoy days filled touring local organic farms and wineries, whale watching, hiking, sailing, or mountain biking. Of course, some may choose to luxuriate in the spa with one of The Aerie’s signature body or facial treatments. No one, however, should miss out on the gourmet cuisine that their executive chef creates out of fresh local ingredients. Room rates start at 175 CAD in the winter months and 285 CAD during the summer.
The Aerie is truly one of the worlds premier resorts. However if you are downtown Victoria please check out this linkfor a list of spas in victoria bc.
