Hotel in zona Brands Fore Less, Hamilton

Another trusty stay at the local Hilton. This time I was here to use my coins and have a convenient place from which to launch two separate expeditions: first, to the Lit Live Reading Series at the Art Gallery of Hamilton; and, second, to my favourite local bar on James Street North. While I enjoyed some of the literary stylings at the first event, things were ultimately disrupted by an untoward event (the second of the past three months, if memory serves). Things took a similarly negative turn at the second establishment of the evening, although I suppose that was further inside the realm of the expected. At any rate, I survived, and the Hilton was there form me at the end of a hard day once again. There was also a heaping complimentary breakfast in the morning, which helped me transition back into a daily routine of (somewhat) respectable adult living. All of this was very much appreciated! (Although, in spite of the suite-lack amenities and fantastic showering experience[s], there was still [predictably!] no robe with which to complete my relapse into comparative luxury.)

This hotel is just over a year old and still looked and smelled new. We chose it because of an indoor pool and the later than usual check out time of 12:00 pm. There was a single front desk attendant and a long line formed at check-in time. Unfortunately, the pool was out of order for our stay. We were told that we could use the one at a sister hotel that was a ”short walk away”- totally missing the point of an on site pool. The 11th floor, corner room had lovely views and was clean and fresh. Lighting was poor for reading on the sofa. The breakfast space was large and lovely and had a variety of seating including booths, tables and a bar type overlooking a street view. However, food quality and selection was poor compared to other ”breakfast included” places I've stayed. The bacon and scrambled egg containers were allowed to be empty. Scrambled eggs were yellow but otherwise did not taste or resemble real scrambled eggs. The bacon was undercooked. Everything you use is garbage-plates, cutlery, cups. How out of touch is this, especially for a new facility and one that promotes ”green” practices in the room. The knives were so flimsy you could barely spread butter. Is it really too much to provide real tableware? Parking is underground and is spacious and well lit. The $15/night cost is only revealed by drilling down on website amenities. All in all, this stay was only memorable for its disappointments.

Everything here was great. My understanding is that this is the only real hotel-like place to stay if you need to do something in Westdale (which I try not to do but have to do sometimes). Friendly and efficient service, clean and excellent room. Not a great view, but, after all, the room is meant for travelers-slash-visitors. I wish I could have checked out the pool, but, alas, I was too busy the last two times I stayed here.

La posizione geografica è unica. È sul lago di strada e sul lago di Ontario, si siede nella stanza dell'hotel, e si può vedere il panorama del lago fuori dalla finestra. La porta è la strada commerciale. La cena è stata comprata per portare indietro l'hotel e sedersi sul divano e godere della bella vista. Quando si è lasciato, la signorina servizio di ricetta era molto bello. Mi ha portato al parcheggio fuori dell'hotel per insegnarmi a usare la carta di parcheggio gratuita.Il servizio di colazione gratuito dell'hotel è ricco e buon gusto 👍

Questo motel ha le camere più pulite che abbiamo mai soggiornato e il miglior colazione che abbiamo mai vissuto nei nostri viaggi. Eravamo in thenarea per un funerale e il personale amichevole ci ha dato un buon prezzo. Il personale era amichevole, comprensivo e rispettoso.

Hotel tranquillo e bello. Camera spaziosa, pulita e aggiornata. Personale amichevole. Buon colazione complimentare. Veramente buon caffè disponibile tutto il giorno gratuitamente. Bonus si può iscriversi al proprio Netflix. Mi consiglierei questo hotel.

So pleasantly surprised. Stayed overnight cause husband had flu and didn’t want to get exposed before my holiday. Received a beautiful greeting upon arrival. The hotel is very clean and the room was tidy and spacious. More importantly, the beds and pillaged were super comfy. Great stay. Would highly recommend.

Le camere sono belle e spaziose. Frigorifero e microonde sono in una camera che ha avuto un bel contatto.

Well, it’s been a huge turnaround from our very first experience and each and every Stay just keeps getting better. We are platinum elite guests, which afford us benefits e.g. upgraded room, $10/ guest plus one, among other things. We love this hotel for many reasons, it’s a Marriott which is generally consistent, the Marriott bed is thee best, the rooms are large no matter what option you choose including the standard room, and I have anxiety. My favourite room surprisingly, and in order is the deluxe corner rooms, the full 1 bedroom suite which is a huge treat, (two full showers one with bath) in same bathroom, it’s massive) and connects to a kind standard room. Then, the Junior Suite. Each room is modern, and up to date. The one thing I wish all hotels had was access to “connect my device.” I’m not sure if the use of this system across Marriott brands is being removed entirely but I do know that some hotels within the brand offer it. Unfortunately, not here. They do have Netflix, Amazon Prime and stream. One odd thing we’ve had happen and not sure why this is, as we never felt compelled to ask, is why the tv just shuts down in the middle of any program/ streaming. And, although the tv message comes up on a screen saying hit “ok” to continue, it doesn’t matter how many times you do that, it still shuts off hmmm 🤔 Of all the Courtyard hotels that we’ve stayed in, this hotel is thee nicest in comparison. The Bistro has a whole host of items. You can review the menu in room on the tv, and you can order over the phone albeit you need to pick up. The food has always been great, breakfast, lunch and dinner. The staff always get it right too! Lol We stayed last weekend (28-30) and upon check in got upgraded from a standard king (using points) to a deluxe corner - more spacious and the layout is fantastic. Upon, entry to the room we received the sweetest gesture of small snacks, and waters. So thoughtful. And, it’s each and every time! Now, we’ll be sad if we don’t get it. Lol JK! We know we’re appreciated and feel the genuine care of the team. When we checked in the staff heard me and came out to say hello making us feel extra special. Not needed as we know time is valuable. But, thank you! We appreciate the all of it. They have gone way beyond the extra mile! Oh, and, upon arriving to our room, and in past we have made requests for robes and slippers (mostly for my husband, to arrive this past weekend to two sets of each on our bed like a little welcome home! Awwww makes the day that much brighter to know that the staff took time out of their day, anticipating our need without even asking this time, albeit we didn’t need but husband still used them, just shows the thoughtfulness. It truly is the little things! Thank you! We shall see you this weekend, again! Also, It has become our new hotel, for attending Toronto FC soccer matches in Toronto. We would stay in Toronto right down town (at one of our fav hotels, ever) the hospitality 💋 anyways,
