Cambridge Hotel and Conference Centre
One of the cleanest hotels I've stayed in. Staff was very welcoming. Beds were comfortable. Heating worked well, and despite being close to the highway, I didn't hear a thing. Definitely would stay again if I am very down that way.

Courtyard by Marriott Waterloo St. Jacobs
The stay was really lovely! Everything clean, comfy, and well stocked, and the staff got us plates and utensils when we asked for some too - since our room wasn't a one with a whole kitchen. The food at the bistro was yummy as well. All the staff was very accommodating and kind, and things were reasonably ...
