Exceptional Service & Memorable Stay!
Our stay at the Empress was absolutely incredible! From the moment we checked in, the service was exceptional. The front desk staff was welcoming and helpful, and the team that brought water, ice, and prepared our room at night went above and beyond. Breakfast was another highlight—our waiter was incredibly kind, and the PNW Eggs Benedict recommendation was spot on! Every detail of our stay was handled with care, making our experience truly memorable. We highly recommend the Empress and can’t wait to return!

Beautiful and fun stay
Great! Fabulous amenities. Any room/building quirks were a result of the building’s age and not easy to change, so we recognize that. Plus it adds to the charm
