The Magnolia Hotel & Spa, located in Victoria, and the Pan Pacific Whistler Village Centre in Whistler, British Columbia, have received the honour of one of the "Top Three Hotels in Canada." Results from the independent poll, Conde Nast Readers' Choice Survey, counted a record-breaking 28,000 votes from travellers this year.
New York City was the place to be on October 10th, where the 20th Annual Readers Choice Awards were presented. There were 25 competing hotels from Canada but only three made it into the "Best of the Best" category: Auberge Saint-Antoine (Quebec City, QC), Pan Pacific Whistler Village Centre (Whistler, BC) and Magnolia Hotel & Spa (Victoria, BC).
What makes this award different than most of the rest of the larger ones is that it's soley up to the respondants, not the public relations team of the hotel. Although I've never been to Magnolia, this award has certainly peaked my interest in staying there. Perhaps you'll see a piece on my experience in the future!
