Fantastic Hotel

We were extremely pleased with our stay at the Oswego! We had a one bedroom suite which was fantastic! Very roomy and comfortable. We could have moved in and lived there! Everything was very clean and nicely appointed. Drinks and snacks were also good in the lively restaurant, I would almost want to return to Victoria just to stay at this hotel again!
