About Victoria, B.C.

The Oswego Hotel is just two blocks from the Inner Harbour and the Legislative Buildings. It is centrally located in Victoria's historic James Bay District. You're at the heart of it all.

Whether you choose to stay inside at O Bistro where you can sip on local BC wines or relax in our lounge or get active in our work-out area – the choice is yours.

Outside, Victoria BC is a wonderfully walkable city. Scenic strolls along the Inner Harbour lead visitors to interesting pubs and restaurants, more per capita than almost anywhere else in North America. Antique shopping on Fort Street, boutiques for the fashion-forward, the world-class Royal BC Museum, and countless other stops of interest lure pedestrians from this block to the next. An acre of park by every 20 residents makes the occasional bench rest splendidly green and serene. Cyclists are equally at home with bike lanes and pathways criss-crossing the city.

Beyond the downtown core, golf courses and marinas entertain from dawn till dusk, summer and winter. A speedway, a castle, a casino, a convent... different venues invite guests to try on a different state of mind. Further afield, the island’s fishing, camping, and hiking are unparalleled, and an emerging wine and cider industry adds agri-tourism to the many reasons to visit. Use The Oswego Victoria BC Hotel as your "home" base.

Walk, hike, sleep, fish, dive, golf, kayak, explore, cycle, sail, read, shop, escape... come to The Oswego Victoria BC Hotel, and enjoy some 'island time'.
