Great things happening in the city this year. Many festivals to keep the city hopping. Glad we are in the heart of it all.

Easter breakfast with The Admiral Inn

admin — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 22:25:36 +0000

We have had a great Spring break and busy Easter. The Easter bunny must have had a hole in his sack, because there were lots of little chocolate eggs dotting a pathway to our breakfast area. Hot cross buns were toasted and served during the peak breakfast hours. It was a happy hopping breakfast which everyone seemed to be enjoying. It was nice to see guests making friends with other guests over breakfast.

New since last summer, we now have Belgian waffles with good old Canadian maple syrup, served on weekends, Tues and Thurs. So if you are a waffle lover, plan to get up early to make sure you get some. They are popular go fast. To make it easier to join us for breakfast, we have a brand new, really discounted room rate available on line only. There is limited inventory, so book early because it is very very popular!

Check out our new Concise Visitor’s Guide to Victoria. The link is on our home page of our web at the bottom left, right under the video. You are sure to find something you want to do in Victoria.

See you soon.
