Best of Orchids and Orcas only in Victoria BC

The Magnolia Hotel & Spa has introduced a fabulous new Orcas and Orchids Package. Summer is the ideal time to head to Victoria – an escape from the hurried world, full of glorious waterfront walkways, breathtaking orca whales, year-round gardens, superb cuisine, museums and inspiring galleries. Victoria’s spa boutique hotel has partnered with Prince of Whales to bring you Victoria’s best attractions! Start with a 3 ½ hour whale watching tour for two that delivers you to the private dock at The Butchart Gardens. Marvel at the orchids and other world renown flora at your leisure, then enjoy convenient return transportation to downtown Victoria provided by return coach at several convenient times. Later settle into one of their luxurious guest rooms with deep soaker tubs and lush bathrobes. The four-diamond Magnolia Hotel & Spa provides luxury and intimacy in the historic capital city of British Columbia, Canada .

The Magnolia Hotel & Spa, repeatedly recognized by Condé Nast Traveller Magazine readers as one of the top hotels in Canada, is a delightful boutique hotel just steps from the Inner Harbour and splendid shopping, and most of the cultural attractions in the city. Now, with their unique Orcas and Orchids Package, the Magnolia helps you to enjoy two of Victoria’s most popular attractions all in one day – it really doesn’t get any better.

The Magnolia, infused with European elegance, offers guests a complimentary continental breakfast. Guestrooms feature downtown and harbour views, custom-designed traditional two-poster beds, floor to-ceiling windows that open, and fireplaces in diamond level rooms. In-room complimentary amenities include gourmet coffee, fresh fruit and bottled water. You’ll be thrilled to find the kind of undistracted, unmatched service you can experience only in a boutique hotel with just 64 rooms.

The Orcas and Orchids Package from the Magnolia Hotel includes two nights stay in a Superior Guest Room, a 3 ½ hour whale watching tour for two, entry for two adults into The Butchart Gardens (including scheduled return transportation to Victoria), Evening Turndown Service, Complimentary Valet Parking, Continental Breakfast and plenty of time for sight-seeing.

Situated on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is an intimate, pedestrian friendly city. Unique boutique shops are clustered around the picturesque harbour. Spa Magnolia is a newly expanded oasis of tranquility with seven treatment rooms and a spacious lounge. Each therapy is customized to the individual’s specific needs using the power of touch, the cornerstone of Aveda spa philosophy. Prime Steakhouse & Lounge is a steak lover’s paradise, with six cuts of steak gracing the menu. On-site dry aging and the over fired broiler produce flavour and juice with a crisp crust.

Value, luxury, a beautiful city, moderate climate, a relaxing spa and fabulous food – just a few of the many reasons The Magnolia Hotel & Spa and Victoria are perfect for a summer vacation. Most rooms have great views, and we recommend upgrading to a diamond level to take advantage of the view.

This package starts at Cdn$299 per night (based on a two night stay, double occupancy). For more details, visit www.magnoliahotel.com/packages.html, or call 1-877- 624-6654 from anywhere in the continental USA or Canada.
