This just in from @fairmont hotels via Twitter (and why YOU should be on Twitter too!): Twitter Early Access (in advance of Travelzoo launch on 3/18/09) – $101 room rates at The Fairmont Empress -http://tinyurl.com/empress101
The Fairmont Empress on Victoria Harbour
Victoria, BC’s most-photographed hotel, the venerable Fairmont Empress, celebrates 101 years this year but in this economy she’s the one bearing the gifts: until March 24, you can book a room for any time up to December 23, 2009 for just $101 a night, INCLUDING a 15% discount on food, drink and indulgent Willowstream Spa treatments. It doesn’t get better that that–especially if you’re paying in Euros or US dollars.
If you’re tempted, don’t dither. This special package will hit TravelZoo on Wednesday…

Hi Julie, I just wanted to thank you again for your postings about the local hotel specials.
I booked the Chateau in Whistler off your advice for an anniversary weekend with my husband
in September. Today I booked 2 nights in Victoria at the Empress. I am going with a good friend for her birthday.
I would never have heard of these specials without your postings so I wanted you to
know how much I appreciated it.
Best wishes, Stephanie H.
