Chateau Victoria Hotel and Suites
We really enjoyed our time at the Chateau Victoria. The pool and hot tub were lots of fun, gym was everything we needed, Vista 18 had excellent food and views although we were disappointed in the service there. We even had a beautiful breakfast through room service. We were so close to everything ...
