$105.40 per night
'Where is Guelph?' you might ask. It is in southern Ontario, west of Toronto and slightly south. John McCrae who wrote In Flanders Fields was brought up here.
Our hotel is in an obscure place across town from the airport, but Guelph isn't very big. Population is about 115,000. Unfortunately I don't have a single picture of the town.
At $105 a night, the Marriott Fairfield Inn & Suites was our best hotel deal of the trip. How refreshing to receive a warm welcome at the front desk. In the afternoons cookies were there too.
The room was very clean and comfortable. Internet was free without having to sign up for some special club as was the case with Fairmont hotels.
Hotel has a pool, which I don't care about.
Do-it-yourself breakfast was included. I love those waffle makers.
We really liked this. Instead of the over-priced in-room mini-bar, the hotel had a 'store' in the lobby where you could buy things at regular prices. We wish more hotels would do this.
