I never actually stayed at this hotel because they cancelled half my group reservation 3 days before our stay saying they were overbooked! No apology or offer to help find other accommodations. I called to ask for an explanation and they said someone would call me back - it’s been 2 days. We were able to find another hotel and based on the reviews I am glad I’m not staying here because it seems like most people find it disgusting and a rip off. DO NOT STAY HERE!

One of Hamilton's best hotels

Reviewed By TravellerfromtheD

I splurged a little and got one of the junior suites. It had a big, luxurious whirlpool tub that was easy to operate. The bathroom had one of the best showers I have ever used in a hotel, with a hand held shower and a waterfall shower. I did NOT want to get out of that shower! The beds are also nice and cozy and I did not want to get out of bed either! My room also had a safe, a refrigerator, microwave and a Keurig coffee maker. A very nice place within a short driving distance to McMaster University and downtown Hamilton.

Watch Out For 3Rd Party Fees

Reviewed By Tom V

This is not so much about the room or the service as it is about getting ^%#$% price wise .The room was nice and the front desk service was OK. I even got an upgrade, The room was listed at a price of $208. Unfortunately I paid $539.43. I had booked for 2 nights. Upon arrival I told them that I only needed the room for 1 night. I was told that I could not cancel the 2nd night because I booked with a 3rd party. They were right, however beware, I booked through the Sandman website and it linked me to the 3rd party called RESERVATIONS,Com. The net is that I paid $539.43 for a room that should have cost me $208.00. BEWARE WHEN YOU BOOK THIS PLACE THAT YOU DO NOT USE A 3RD PARTY SUCH AS RESERVATIONS.COM Sorry to write such a lousy review, but I paid way too much for a hotels stay and since I could not even have dinner at Denny's because at was closed at dinner time

Wedding stay

Reviewed By Shannon M

My, now, Husband and i stayed here with our wedding party and family. The one thing i will agree on, is its not in the best area. it was pretty sketchy. The parking wasnt the best either because its underground and there wasnt a lot of spaces. We never had trouble finding parking though. The good thing was, it was a really nice hotel. The rooms were clean and very spacious. The only negative thing i would say about the rooms is that the lighting is terrible. We did hair and makeup in the hotel room and the lighting wasnt great. They dont have enough light bulbs and the colour of the walls makes it really gloomy. Other than that, i have no real complaints about this hotel. The staff were great. They let me know when the vendors were there so i could let them come up. They were very accommodating. Check in was a breeze and the front desk lady had to check me into about 7 rooms lol. There was absolutely no issue there. Breakfast was fine. its a continental breakfast that is free of charge so you really cant complain. They had waffles which was a bonus for me. The hotel is also in a decent area if you need to get around. We got married at Ancaster Mill so it was easy to get to. we also checked out the bay the day after the wedding and it wasnt far at all. If i had to go back to Hamilton i would definitely stay here again!

Atrocious ?

Dirty, loud, seedy, with rude staff. We booked to have a little sanctuary while attending a funeral. Staying at this place was the most stressful part of the trip. No redeeming features unfortunately.

Great place for the price and reasonable fee for pets

Reviewed By queenoftheneighbourh

I was recommended to try this place because it accepts pets at a reasonable pet fee. I could drive right up to my room and the room was very clean and everything worked. The bedding could be improved - sheets were thin and pillows lumpy. Check in staff was very friendly. The hotel was busy but was quiet overnight. Parking lot could use a clean up. Price was reasonable. Breakfast could have more options but covid still affects what can be offered

Clean and Comfortable

Reviewed By D_Train_Traveler

Stayed here for a few nights April 25th to April 28th for work in Hamilton. Front desk staff are very friendly and helpful and available when something is needed. For a Comfort Inn the Breakfast was perfect with hot eggs, waffles, bacon or sausage an assortment of muffins, yogurts and cereals, juice and coffee. The Lobby is nice and very welcoming. The rooms are a bit dated and the heating and air conditioning could use new equipment. The wallpaper was pealing and tears could be found in the carpets, but I do believe they are going to be renovating very soon to modernize the rooms. Despite that, the beds were very comfortable and the room was clean. Tons of food options close by including Eastgate Square a short 5 mins walk from the hotel. Plenty of parking for trucks, moving vans and small busses. Public Transit and GO busses close by. 5 mins from Confederation Park.
