Travel Accommodation: Choosing a Hotel or Motel
There is accommodation in Hamilton to suit any budget. You can stay at the local Hostel for only dollars a day, or you can stay in hotel suites that are good enough for visiting prime ministers. Pricing is seasonal. Summer is high season in the Hamilton area. Area hotels are also more expensive over holidays and long weekends. Fall (September to December) and spring (April to June) are definitely the less expensive times to visit. Each hotel's dates for high, low, and shoulder seasons differ a bit so watch your timing or your hotel. Our pricing guidelines (exclusive of taxes) are as follows:
There are also a number of less expensive dorm/hostel style accommodations, including the Mohawk College, McMaster University, Redeemer University College (these three with summer availability only) and the YWCA. Location The desired location of the hotel depends on the purpose of your visit. We have grouped the hotels by "Area" to assist you with selecting appropriate accommodation. The Area is in most cases, the city in which a hotel is located. Inside the Hamilton , we also list the part of town. If you are in Hamilton on business, you would want a hotel in the Downtown core. Several hotels are within walking distance (or a $4 to $8 cab ride) of downtown shopping and restaurants. There are some value-conscious hotels in the Downtown area. There are a number of hotels serving the smaller communities around Hamilton, being more convenient to the businesses and attractions in that community. If you are travelling across Canada along or to-from Toronto on highway 401, 403 or the QEW, you'll need to get off the main highway for accommodation. If you are trying to find something VERY NEAR your meeting, use the "Postal" feature in the Hotel Search screen, where we match the first the digits/characters of the postal code! This also works on our Restaurant search, to find a restaurant near your hotel (and in every other search form on our site).
