  1. Rank 1. Fairmont Empress

    The Empress commands Victoria's Inner Harbour as a National Historic Site has since 1908, its Edwardian grandeur now refreshed through a sweeping renovation that preserved the eccentric spirit of its past. Winston Churchill drank brandy from a teapot here; today guests arrive for the same mixture of theatrical history and genuine luxury.

  2. Rank 1. The Magnolia Hotel and Spa

    The Magnolia attends to arrival like a concierge who remembers your birthday before you do: tea from the local Silk Road blender, lobbying refreshments that shift with the season, turndown sweets sourced nearby. In rooms appointed with marble and restraint, a spa devoted to organic treatments and The Courtney Room's French-inflected cooking complete an exercise in small kindnesses that accumulate into something substantial.
