"Noisy, smelly, door wouldn't lock"

User 08/02/2023

The staff were great but the amenities were questionable. First night I awoke to noise disturbance and a police wellness check next door. Switched rooms again and again because the door wouldn't lock.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry that the safety of another guest caused a disturbance. We're pleased to know you found our staff great. We look forward to your return visit.

"Quality and Standards"

cruisekarib, Toronto, Canada 17/01/2023

Need to clean and increase temperature of hot tub in pool areas. Breakfast buffet need plant-based choices, better standard food. TV service poor, programs freeze constantly, need to repair. Restaurant lunch and dinner food selections and quality good. Rooms clean and comfortable. . Courteous and helpful staff.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Thanks for your feedback. The temperature of the hot tub is regulated, however with fresh water the temp can dip temporarily. We'll take all your comments into consideration and look forward to your return visit.

Once again attended the New Years Eve Gala at the hotel. As always the food and entertainment was excellent. Prime rib, stuffed pork loin, fried chicken, smoked salmon, scallops and the list goes on. The disc jockey eyed up the attendees and played music suited to their Era. A great time was had by all.

"If you're going for the pool rethink"

User 09/01/2023

They added so many chemicals to the pool and hot tub, it was completely unsafe, and continued to add chemicals while the hot tub was in use. Sitting in the room affected my lungs and stung my eyes. Don't eat the scrambled eggs. My room door didn't shut properly always, others had issues with their toilets working, shower wall wasn't clean. Beds were very comfortable.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Thank you for your feedback. Our pool is tested multiple times a day by trained and certified maintenance team. I'm sorry to read that you had these issues and will relay your feedback to our team.

"Gross"

User 29/11/2022

Hotel has gone downhill over the years. The pool was cloudy and the hot tub had a grimy foam ring around it. Got a lecture on how to work the remote instead of replacement batteries or working remote.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear Anna_Nomiz, Thank you for sharing your feedback. Our pool is monitored, cleaned and inspected by trained maintenance and housekeeping crew. At times, the pool can be hit heavily with swimmers, but actions are taken to get it back to sparkling clean. I will look into your comments and share them with our team to ensure improvements are made for guest satisfaction. We hope to serve you again. Yours in hospitality, Joanne Brooks, General Manager

"Dirty"

0027DAR, Ontario, Canada 26/10/2022

This hotel needs to have a deep cleaning!! Inside and outside. The toilet was dirty, the bathroom fan did not work and the patio door was almost impossible to open. Not sure why there are good ratings. I won't stay here again.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
I'm sorry you felt the need to post these remarks and not tell us directly so we could rectify the situation. Our rooms are deep cleaned regularly.

Kindly call us at 519-753-8651 if you care to share information.

"Needs Updating"

jolanglois88, McGregor, Canada 23/09/2022

The hotel rooms seemed very rundown. We had to move rooms because there was a smoking smell. Also, the halls seemed dingy. The room was ok, but needs updating. The restaurant and service was great for dinner. The complimentary breakfast was a buffet. People were not sanitizing, very congested. Not a great idea when Covid is still running rampant. I would suggest a served breakfast of your choosing.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear jolanglois88, Thank you for your feedback. All of our guest rooms are non-smoking. We take every precaution on our end for health and safety.

"Very Disappointing Stay"

User 10/09/2022

4 nights paid $544can with no maid service, expected to go to front desk for clean towels,ect, then told to dump the wet ones on the hall carpet. Day 2 no water. Room carpet stained. Bathroom had skunky odor. Would not recommend this hotel.

Just not clean. Outdated not enough plugins and what was there was over loaded...the staff at the front desk and restaurant were excellent We ordered a beef dip a burger poutine and onion rings all were excellent. The restaurant offers to call our room when our food was ready Very prompt service Reception staff on check in were very accommodating Night staff were wonderful. When we returned that night I couldn't find my room key. The gentleman issued us a new key right away no questions asked

"Never again."

ingy03, Montreal, Canada 28/08/2022

Smelled like cigarette smoke everywhere, our room included. Sometimes with whiffs of marijuana. Made me physically ill after two nights. The carpet felt dirty upon arrival. The fan in the bathroom didn't work. The pool was dirty and I did not feel comfortable letting my son swim in it. Cigarette butts all over the parking lot. Very noisy air conditioner, had to turn off to sleep. The breakfast was mediocre. Would not recommend. I feel like I can still smell cigarettes. It was that bad.

Rowan M, rowan79 27/08/2022

Was expecting a nicer visit to be honest. Got the upgraded room but it wasn't worth the expense really. Nice if you need just a comfortable bed for a night or two but amenities are nothing fancy. Was clean and functional.

Room was clean, hardwood floors were nice. Pool area and outdoor park/play area for kids were good. Breakfast buffet included was nice as well. Main reason for 2 star is smell in hallway. Odour embedded in carpet and walls when leaving room very hard to ignore.

"Pet Friendly is not Human Friendly"

Linda A, Peterborough, Canada 22/08/2022

Asked for a pet friendly room to bring our small (25lb) dog. No carpeting in the room, furniture was mismatched and seemed to be the cast offs from other renovated rooms. Our other family members had nice sofas and a fireplace. Not us! And we were charged an extra $30 dollars for the privilege. Mattresses were lumpy and room was either too hot or freezing. And the air conditioner was so loud that you could hardly sleep. Also, my mother is 91 and has trouble with stairs. There is only 1 elevator in the whole building by the lobby which was at the other end of the building from her room. Who knew that you had to ask to be located near the elevator?

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear Linda A, Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you didn't enjoy the beautiful sanitized pvc flooring and comforts of one of our pet friendly rooms. We love requests in advance to let us know how we can make your stay more enjoyable. Our goal is to exceed our guest expectations and I hope we can do that for your next visit.

Hotel is located in a great location close to the highways. Check-in was quick, the desk was polite and courteous. The room, while not too fancy, was very roomy and had a fireplace, even though we didn't use it. Bathroom was spacious, all amenities worked well and the room as well as the grounds were clean. All in all, a good stay.

HeatherJ22, Columbus, Ohio 23/07/2022

The rooms are nice, shower works great, beds were comfy. Patio door was broken but had a “bar” to secure door instead of look. When we arrived, there were garbage bags sitting outside our room - hallways look old and dirty - entrance “B” secure lock did not work - we could walk right in. Hotel room doors loudly slam shut. Front desk staff and breakfast staff were great! Breakfast - although great hot choices, mediocre at best (but it is free) - leave a tip tho! Definitely has more of a motel than hotel vibe but overall had a good experience.

"Avoid this hotel"

1
User 21/07/2022

This hotel is by far worse than you'd imagine. To start I travelled with two young children. We arrived and the front desk was not very friendly. We get to our room and almost pass out from the awful stench. My family said the fitness room was even worse. It made us actually nauseous. The room is seriously outdated. The sheets were actually dirty. Plus two bath towels for 4 guests. I called front desk and someone arrived and tried to pass me linens. Um no not a chance I'm going to do your job. Then he asks if I dirtied sheets?!! It was an hour after we checked in. Cut to the next money I shower and the towels are all stained. Just super gross! The ac was loud. The remote did not work. The bathroom door touches the toilet when you open it — super cramped. Lastly the food was not good. The buffet had no bacon. Undercooked sausage. Servers didn't clear buffet plates or refill drinks. Big letdown! The supposed park outdoors had random shoes and looks like a place people use to take drugs. I would not let my kids even go on anything. Overall a waste of money and a terrible sleep for our family.

Joanne Brooks, General Manager at Best Western Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear mattnats, We are so sorry to know that you did not enjoy your stay. Our housekeeping team takes great pride in providing clean, scent free rooms for all guests.

"Not the best Best Western"

User 02/07/2022

At check-in, the staff person was indifferent. Our room was tidy but tattered and worn. The breakfast was disappointing. Sausage undercooked, no milk for the cereal. The home fries were good. Was there for a tournament and then kids enjoyed the pool. I don't expect luxury at a Best Western, but do expect more than what this one provides.

ShanT1973, Ottawa, Canada 20/06/2022

A great place to lay your head. Rooms were clean, hallways were not. Court yard was perfect for our group of u10 baseball families. The pool is a good size, so is the hot tub, if you can't stand to be in the awful echo , please invest in some sound proof, the echo feedback is awful when the pool area is busy.

"Wedding"

forever28, Winchester, Ontario 13/06/2022

We traveled 6 hours for our son's wedding and checked in a few days early. Due to the timing we asked that 3 other couples also attending the wedding be allowed in out room to change if their rooms were not ready for early check-in. I left a detailed list at the front desk. When they arrived they were told by the staff that it was not possible to get into our room and that they had never heard of us and had no idea what they were taking about. This caused a LOT of unnecessary stress. Arriving for a wedding with no place to get ready! Unnecessary! All the staff had to do was look at the list I left for them. Not happy with this type of service.

astacey410, Calgary, Canada 19/04/2022

Dirty room and no service blamed on COVID. Sad this is when you want rooms to be clean and offer cleaning to them. Other hotels in the area do, when we complained it was turned aside again blamed on the pandemic or the long weekend. Brutal downgrade it should not be a part of the BW chain

dg44556, Toronto, Canada 10/04/2022

I was a bit hesitant as I'd read quite a mix of reviews. Honestly it kind of sounds like people are talking about two different hotels. But I'll say my experience was lovely. I do wonder if the Gretzky wing is just very different than other sections of the hotel. Either way, I was in the Gretzky wing. It was completely quiet. The room was very very clean. The only thing that felt out of place was the shower curtain which (although clean) seemed a bit long in the tooth and in need of a replacement. It only stood out as the place was quite immaculate otherwise. The bed was very comfortable. I could see some people finding the heating to be a bit loud, but it certainly didn't bother me in the slightest. I also appreciated that the air was not too dry. The reception staff were extremely friendly. I also had a meal at the bar. Certainly nothing fancy, but very cosy and the two servers were very welcoming and attentive. It was a lovely experience. I wish I was staying more than one night, and I'd definitely go back if I'm in town again.

good value and centrally located. very good breakfast included. fitness room and indoor pool.

User 02/02/2022

My husband and I visited this hotel during the last weekend of January 2022. We booked a Jacuzzi suite in the Gretzky Wing. Only guests of room in the wing have access to it. The room was HUGE! Both the extra large jacuzzi tub and king size bed were very relaxing. Due to Covid restrictions, we were unable to use the gym, pool area, or restaurant. We would like to return to the hotel at a future date to use these amenities. The hotel did provide a "Grab and Go" breakfast consisting of a piece of fruit, granola bar, and breakfast egg sandwich. Something to be aware of....the room keys stop working at 11:00AM on the day you are checking out. Overall we were very impressed with the hotel and found it very reasonable for the price.

"BEST NIGHT EVER!"

I had one of the BEST solo nights of my life here in Brantford at the Best Western. I went for a 2 hour swim and hot tub experience and I was the ONLY guest in there at the time. It was magical. Joanne and Ami were spectacular ladies that welcomed me. My room was gorgeous with a whirlpool tub. I went for some ME time and I told the hotel that I was noise sensitive and they put me in this magical land called the QUIET ZONE! I've never been in a hotel that had this. WOW, you could hear a pin drop. I loved it. I had a fireplace and a king size bed that was so comfy. I LOVED the outside too. So PRIVATE. I would go out and smoke a j and there are 5 big pine trees and 4 new picnic tables and you feel you are out in nature. They have a playground for the kids. I saw no kids, so I played for a bit, haha. THANK YOU BEST WESTERN for one of the BEST nights of my life. YES, I would recommend this hotel to ANYONE and if you really want a peaceful night to yourself, like I did, the whirlpool tub rooms are GREAT for mothers/fathers who need a break. The ONLY aggravations for me, were due to the covid protocols that I know are in place everywhere. Maks...showing vaccine status is NOT cool and I will be back when the pool opens and I don't need to wear a mask.

Was here for a conference at the centre. Food was delicious, lobby is nice and internet was good. Not super clean rooms, but not bad, spacious at least & coffee machine/fridge but hadn't been vacuumed well in a while. The pool was closed and the gym had 6 pieces of equipment half of which were broken with some cobwebs and animal poop in the corners. It's a good location - 15 min walk or 3 min drive to mall/shopping. Would stay again.

Room service for cleaning not good. I had to replace towels myself.I left sign on door for cleaning by to no one cleaned room. Cable TV was the worst. No Netflix, HBO, basic channels only. If you have to spend any time in the room, make sure it's to sleep only.

The hotel was a decent stay for the price. The only issues were the pool was not open and the fire alarm went off between 8am and 9am. I wanted to sleep in because I was away from my children. Will stay again because was a good value.

The good: Bed was comfortable Room was affordable Staff was friendly Check in and out was quick and efficient The bad: The hotel was much dirtier than I remember. The bathtub wasn't clean, the bathroom floor had visible dirt smudges on it. The entry way had dead bugs and spiders. There was garbage in the hallway that our room was located in. I assume it was due to reduced cleaning staff because of Covid.

First Paul the GM at check in super friendly and welcoming. Room 143 was great for the dogs. Disappointed in double beds and they weren't comfy. Patio had cig butts on it. There should be ashtrays on patios for smokers. Or cleaning staff should be attending to this pre check in. Rooms and hotel was clean. Disappointed pool not open and breakfast buffet at restaurant was not a great selection. We had a voucher for $4.95 reg price was $10.95 def would not pay that price. Lots of free parking and green spaces for pups. Our shower didn't work and we had to be moved which was a huge inconvenience. There should be maintenance staff working Saturday mornings. Perimeter needs more poop bag waste bins.

Decent hotel, good rates. You probably only have three choices in town, this is the best. Hope you like giant pillows, they don't have the wafer thin ones I like. Clean rooms, great staff. They really love Walter Gretzky and there is a picture of Herb Tarlek (rip) in the lobby so that is cool.

I stayed here during my recent business trip. I had to self quarantine for 14 days. The hotel staff were excellent in tending to my needs for services, food delivery from Myra's Bar & Grill (instead of prepaid meal plan). Once out of quarantine, the staff were very friendly, professional and helpful. We booked several meetings there and the arrangements were excellent as well. Services were limited due to COVID understandable. Hotel is dated, but the staff maintained it well and made the stay exceptional.

valentinesc, Winnipeg, Canada 20/08/2020

We stayed there recently on a trip to see family. I reserved ahead of time, which made check-in quick and convenient. We got a free upgrade to a beautiful room with whirpool and fireplace. WHOOHOO BUT, they didn't tell us that there was no housekeeping due to covid (which I can understand). So after 2 days with no fresh towels, I asked at the front desk and was then informed, that we just leave them outside, and ask the front desk for everything. Sheets, towels, garbage bags, etc They don't do anything until you check out. Would have been nice to know this when we checked in, so we could have been prepared in what to do. I still have to contact them, as they charged me the upgrade rate, instead of the rate I booked it at, as I didn't request the room the gave me, they upgraded me for free.

Stayed for a month in room 127 in April 2020. At best western brantford holiday inn drive. Paid monthly rate $3,000.00 tax incl. Not much of a discount during covid 19.No pool, no hot tub and no fitness room due to covid. Price of stay should of been reduced. That was the best price that they could give me. Making Huge profit from me during covid 19. My review of hotel is below standards from other best western hotels that I have stayed in. Hotel gone down hill when I used to stay when it was under Kirby Management. Sliding door windows dirty. Filter on heaters were dirty. Dusty under furniture. Furniture not moved for vacuuming. Found Change behind dresser. My room cleaned once a week due to covid. Carpets should be carpet extracted for deep cleaning. Outside sliding door. Loose stones had beer caps and circarette butts. Slide door has a week security bar that could be lifted from outside. Didn't feel safe in room. Curtain for sliding door had a hole. Mattress had a big stain in it below mattress cover. Asked cleaning lady about. She made the bed on top of it. Bath tub and sink clogged up. Should be cleaned by maintenance once a month. Bathtub has water damage and rust marks from hinge on tile floor. Saw bugs coming out of the hole. Where there's water damage there mold. To replenish things for room such as towels garbage bags and coffee was a struggle. I spent $3000 At hotel and the hotel was trying to nickel and dime for basic complimentary necessity. I would be bugged by a phone call after my initial request to front desk. From hotel management staff wondering why I was making the request. Hotel was very cheep when it came to this area. Not happy about repeating myself for request. Complimentary breakfast always running out of things such as yorqort and muffins and granola bars. Grocery stores are still open. Cleaning staff not wearing mask and gloves to clean room. Front desk people were good to deal with. Management was another story. Left messages at front desk for manager 3 times. Regarding flat rates and checkout times etc. Manager never responded to my emails request. Very disappointed he or she didn't have time for a paying customer. I get it sometimes your busy. But not for a whole month. Manager too busy hiding in his office. No Ethernet cable access to room. Only wifi. I asked house cleaning to have pillow washed. They said they don't Wash pillows I was waking up stuffy. Comforter on bed was old and crusty.. I asked to have bed mattress vacuumed. They don't do this. It should be done once a week. Housekeeping did It because I requested. I question the cleanliness of the rooms. Power bars are used in the rooms for lamps and tv. Hydro code violation. One electrical receptacle missing a cover plate in room. Noticed on the external walls electrical wires sticking out with electrical Marrette connections exposed. Should be put in weather proof box. Electrical safety authorities And building inspectors should be made aware of this unsafe facility. I can only imagine how many things they find wrong. Laundry room dryer vent not vented outside. Vented inside dryer room. I turn on the dryer. lint was hitting me in the face. Business area Computer in hotel didn't have chair for it. With other hotels to pick from in brantford. I will be researching other hotels. the way the hotel is managed. Should be questioned. Monthly price for hotel room is morally wrong during covid 19. Especially when government is helping businesses ☹️

This hotel is right off the highway which is handy for travel. You can not hear the highway from the rooms. It is horrible looking on the outside but do not let that fool you, the inside is nice and well maintained. We had a room with 2 queen beds and a pull out. It was plenty big for our 4 children. It included a fireplace and a fridge. We did not feel cramped or that the room was too small. The bathroom was clean and in good repair, and also a good size. The pool was good, not great as it is dated, but the kids enjoyed the pool, the hot tub and the sauna. Breakfast is amazing, it is buffet style and included. The staff was wonderful. We asked to be away from noise of the hockey teams and on the top floor and were acccomodated with this request. My only advice is to be aware that the keys were a problem. We had to go to the front desk 7 times to fix demagnatized keys. That was not so great.

Stayed for a conference and banquet - we loved this hotel last year when we stayed, but this year was a different story. when we walked in the room smell like body odour, there was an inch of dust and hair behind the doors. Everytime you closed to the door you had to slam it to get it to close, so not only did it wake up everyone in the room, but all the rooms around us. as soon as we got in the room i got two notifications on my phone from my credit card - they had authorized my credit card twice for the full amount, and twice for the security deposit. I went down to the desk and showed the authorizations, the man on the desk basically said that that's impossible, you aren't charged until you leave. i returned with so apparently my credit card is lieing that you authorized twice the full amount!? I had to wait 4 days for the authorizations to be returned. I would have been fine if they had a reason for why they authorized it twice, instead of basically calling me a liar.

We stayed in the Gretzky quiet zone and it was very nice and quiet .We stayed two nights and then checked out on the 26th. Check out was quick and efficient.Staff were wonderful and pleasant.

I have several food-related sensitivities to additives and preservatives that cause me headaches and congestion, so my food choices were limited for breakfast. I elected to eat my other meals elsewhere. The exercise room had been cleaned with scented products, so was unusable to me. Even though they stopped using these scented materials when I expressed concern (on day 1), the exercise room was still unusable for me 12 days later. Staff let me move weights and a mat to a meeting room for my workouts. All staff members in all parts of the hotel were exceptionally helpful. My room was comfortable, clean and very enjoyable. I will return to this hotel on future trips to this area. The only other issue is that the room price increased significantly on the weekends.

A really comfortable place to stay in Brantford. The room was a good size, with Microwave, fridge and good wifi. It had a small sitting area, where we could look out over the grassed areas and a balcony for when the sun shone. Breakfast was amazingly good and the restaurant also served some good meals.

The Best Western & Conference Centre in Brantford is a terrible hotel property. The overall hotel needs a total renovation~ it is a very old Holiday Inn that hasn't been upgraded for over 20 years. The guest rooms are very basic...very old furnishings...no new tech enhancements (ie usb charging options). The entire room hasn't seen and upgrades for at least 10-15 years based on my experience staying over 85 nights per year at different hotels over the past 12 years. I was excited about the pre-registration and advance check-in which I completed. Overall my check in experience was the same with no time savings at all! I also was pleased to see that you were offering to make requests in advance. I requested extra towels and bathroom amenities that didn't arrive at all. In both situations, it was simply a waste of time. Regards,

Dear rodscott2019, We are sorry to know that your advance request of an extra towel and amenities weren't met and that your message was a waste of time. We will take your feedback constructively. We are continually upgrading our rooms including wallpaper, carpeting, tiling, case goods, etc. This project however does take time. Perhaps in the future one of our suites will be a better option for your satisfaction. I appreciate your feedback and we hope you will give us another opportunity to serve you in the future. Please, if you are not happy during your stay, let us know so we can make sure you are comfortable at the time of your stay. Yours in hospitality, Joanne Brooks, General Manager

cober6711, Mississauga, Canada 15/11/2019

Stayed here for a night while on business. Front desk staff were great. Received a good room upgrade to a suite due to my Diamond Select membership. The room was perfectly clean and comfortable. Breakfast was fine. Didn't use the pool or Fitness Centre. Only real negative that knocked off 2 points was the fact that I call to inquire whether I had left something in the room, and was transferred to a voicemail and did not receive a response. Fix that problem and I would not have hesitated giving a 5-star rating.

We stayed here in July of 2019. The hotel was clean and the room was pleasant enough. The beds were comfortable, but the small pillows were like sleeping on lumpy rocks.

This was the HQ hotel for the convention. The Hotel provided wonderful service for our convention activities. The in-house breakfact exceeded our expectations. The food at the restuarant was very good (although food delivery time was a little slow for our table of 11 early Saturday evening). The function room my group booked for a "Hospitality" Suite late Saturday night was very good. .

_samlamb37, Tillsonburg, Canada 18/10/2019

a group of 3 buses came in for a scheduled lunch as part of the package deal purchased. one of said miscommunications experienced was that a slice of lemon pie was placed at every seat setting; we were advised by a greeter from BW that we would have a choice of dessert from the choices available on the dessert tray in the grand ball room. a second miscue involved on replenishing empty food trays. some salad trays were not replenished when my wife came to the self serve line which happened to be toward the last 10 persons from the 3 bus loads that came.

User 04/10/2019

I recently booked a room and stayed at the Best Western in Brantford on a whim. What a night! The bar was set up for hockey fans early but later it became quite a ridiculous environment. A construction worker returning from the casino with a fist full of cash was three sheets to the wind drinking Patron. He devolved into the worst type of human being propositioning me in all kinds of inappropriate ways and making a complete fool of himself. I was embarrassed for the man and for the bar too. They did absolutely nothing to shut him down even though he had clearly drank too much. Because he was spending money he was King of the scene. A scene that I did not choose to be a part of. Very disappointing.

"Honeymoon packages"

User 30/09/2019

I booked a suite for my niece for her wedding night in 2018. I called to ask if I could put wine and flowers and decorate the room for them. Due to the privacy law, it wasn't allowed. I totally understand. They offered to do a package for us - amazing! They arrived to their honeymoon suite - with nothing extra. So I complained. The compensation was to make it right for their one year anniversary. Great! Guess what happened? They arrived for their anniversary and nothing..... My niece called me to find out about the 'special package?'..... nothing arrived. So she called the front desk....and so did I.... They finally sent wine and cheese, 2 years in a row now and they did't get what I booked. Foot note - we give this as a wedding gift because we spent our wedding night there.

Booked online, was really surprised when we arrived, Pictures look better then the real thing! Description is accurate, but photos look better, Old hotel that has been updated,(but not everything) room is quite beat up, very small bathroom with mold in the corners. Patio door, that doesn't seal properly and single pane glass, dirt/mold all around frame, Can hear every car to drive up, Fridge and air in room quite loud. Yet can still hear everything in the hall and neighbours room!! Restaurant for breakfast has been good. As have staff, very friendly, and helpful as room keys keep losing their ability to open room! (No not by my phone). Likely would not recommend staying here, the price does not reflect the hotel, Not a convention hotel

Eric_Kitchener, Kitchener, Canada 23/09/2019

Very nice layout with easy room access from several entrances from the parking lot. Important when you have lots of luggage. Very cool wall of pictures of famous people who have visited the hotel, likely due to attending Wayne Gretzky fundraisers or playing at local theatre. Nice lounge with outside patio and all employees were very friendly and accommodating. I stay in lots of hotels nationally and tend to stay at higher end (more expensive) hotels, so I was very pleased with this hotel décor, layout and amenities for the price. Not a lot of options in the Brantford area, so this must be the best hotel in the region. My only issue was the bed was a double and I'm somewhat spoiled by typically staying in hotels with queen size or king size beds, but it didn't matter once I nodded of obviously.

Best Western rarely disappoints. Clean rooms and amenities. Friendly and helpful staff (restaurant, front desk, sales). Our group stayed here 4 nights and were hotel pleased. Other than the hotel being quite busy (and loud), with tradesmen having tailgate drinks and wedding guests roaming the halls, it was a successful trip. The bathrooms could use a new paint job. My bathtub didn't drain that fast so I ended up treading in watch as I washed myself down. One night (Sept 14) after a 12 hour day we decided to order take out food and bring to the hotel. Adam the night manager not only allowed us access to a clear boardroom, but set ya up with plates and napkins. What great service and care from both Adam and the front staff that night! We greatly appreciated! Thank Again!

NorthGowerMurphy, Ottawa, Canada 15/09/2019

Stayed at this BW for 2 days in early September. The hotel had many extended stay guests who were working nearby and who arrived, each night, in their rooms at midnight and were noisy and disruptive until 4 am. The front desk sent security to tell them to quiet down, but that didn't stop them from being disrespectful idiots. The walls in the room are PAPER THIN. You hear everything- very clearly. I've never stayed at a hotel where you could hear SO much of what was happening all around you. If you require a measure of peace or quiet- avoid this hotel. Never Again, BW Brantford.

We recently stayed at this property to attend a nearby wedding. It is located immediately adjacent to the 403 highway. We found the lobby and the staff very pleasant and enjoyed our 3 nights there. Their free hot breakfast is the best we have seen in a long time; it is simply outstanding and the wait staff just marvelous. Our room was spacious with a queen bed, fridge, microwave, coffee maker and even a fireplace. Good bathroom but would recommend adding grab bars in the shower tub combination to prevent falls. Wi-Fi is available in the public areas and the rooms. We noted a pool, gym, and many meeting rooms available for conventions.

We purposely booked this location because of the bar and restaurant open 7 days a week. My parents and I were attending a memorial event for my brother who died last year. We were looking forward to a relaxing drink in the evening when we returned to the hotel. We then found out the the bar and restaurant were closed because it was a holiday Monday. I've worked within the hospitality industry for over 20 years and hotel food and beverage outlets DONOT close, especially on a holiday. We were extremely disappointed that this was the case. We will be returning to the Brantford area on a regular basis and will definitely be looking to see what the competition offers. The rooms were fine, clean and perfectly acceptable. Staff were friendly and helpful.

They neglect to mention the train tracks hidden across the street behind the buildings. If you are a light to moderate sleeper make sure you are not on the side of the building where the tracks are. You will hear a moderate rumbling as if a washing machine was in the next room over. A/C unit was subpar and along with the train waking me up at 6 am in the morning my fire alarm went off at 7 then again at 8 then stayed on for over an hour.

Exremely expensive for the quality of room you get. Halls are old and faded, light fixtures missing and duck tape on the door latches. Rooms were decent, nice bed TV etc. The bathroom was clean but you could tell minimal effort was taken renovate it. Buffet was brutal. Food was bad. Cold, stale, cheap. Staff was very friendly and help though! All in all not a horrible stay, but you can certainly get a higher quality room food for much less than $180 a night! Lower your rates and it would be more reasonable for the stay.

WindsDe, LaSalle, Canada 25/08/2019

All of the staff were outstanding during my 4-day stay. The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Brantford, close to all major roadways but far enough away to be nice and quiet. Many TV channels to choose from and the Wi-Fi was great. I ate dinner in the restaurant and always enjoyed my meal and room service. My room (203) had a nice little private balcony that was hidden behind mature trees which made it perfect to sit out on at night without feeling like I was on display. Great coffee in the morning to grab before my meetings and the public areas of the hotel were very clean and nicely updated. Beautiful outdoor patio off the lounge was perfect for an after work drink and the staff are so friendly and helpful! I will definitely come back! I liked having both a mini fridge and microwave in my room but wish they provided complimentary water bottles in the room and included a make-up mirror in the bathrooms. Overall a great value and enjoyable stay.

The check in was fast, friendly and even though we had a minor glitch at check-in the desk clerk was very accommodating and took care of the problem immediately. The server staff was awesome at breakfast and the breakfast was a feast. The room was clean, and comfortable.

I've stated many Best Westerns that are Conference Centers and the one in Cornwall is probably the best. This one is by far the worst. Half the room smell like stale cigarette smoke, the food is atrocious

Dear Shawn20192019, I am surprised and sorry to read that we did not meet your expectations. We would have loved the opportunity to improve any problems you had, if brought to our attention during your stay. We are a 100% non-smoking hotel. We agree that Best Western Cornwall is wonderful and we take great pride in being just as great! Our team truly cares about exceeding our guest expectations.

Seems to be a newer or remodeled Hotel. Breakfast selections were many, made-to-order omelettes were wonderful. Room was very clean. Only issue was how long it took to fill the whirlpool tub, low hot water flow.

This Best Western has great staff, rooms, excellent breakfast at Myra's restaurant where we also ate a great dinner the night before. We were tired from our day of traveling and visiting African Lion safari with our grandson. Having the restaurant right there with an excellent simple menu and kids menu was a relief to not have to drive any where else. We ate, swam in the pool, played on the play structure and then had a great sleep. Breakfast is also at the restaurant and had hot and cold options including made to order eggs or omelet. I would definitely stay here again.

Spent a weekend in Brantford and stayed at the Best Western. Check in was fast and courteous. We had a spacious ground floor room with a patio. The room was large, but the bathroom was tiny and the decor looked like was stuck in the 90's. The best part of the stay was the bed that was super comfortable

Family_n_Biz, Troy, Michigan 05/07/2019

1. Purchased the Lion Safari package -- not much of savings, but this was literally a last minute booking and I was not thinking much 2. Arrived 2 hrs early and they let us check in, issued us the safari tickets (3 month valid), and $20 vouchers for the in-house restaurant 3. We used the vouchers at the lunch buffet -- limited spread of delicious food and desserts. Restaurant crew was friendly and welcoming, and we enjoyed our lunch. 4. The 2Q suites are a little far from the lobby, and they have only 1 elevator. 5. Big hotel room with a lot of space. The loveseat opens as a sofa bed -- though the booking agent was unaware! Smallish bathroom, but very clean. 6. Breakfast was better than any (US) hotel I have had in the last 5 years! Of course, this was our first time in a Canada hotel other than the touristy Niagara! 6. Nice indoor swimming pool, ample parking, helpful staff -- overall a great experience.

Only stayed for one night but the staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast in the morning was great. There was a combination of hot and cold buffet style food (eggs, sausage, home fries, fruit, cereal, yogurt, etc) as well as a made to order section if you wanted your eggs done a different way. The room was clean and comfortable. There is an indoor pool and hot tub, as well as a 24 hour fitness centre

Didn't start out well. Room was at very back of motel and needed your room key to enter hallway. Room keys would not work. Front desk said they were de-magnetized. Room very average. And couldn't stop toilet from running. They didn't have anyone on staff to fix it so we moved to another room. That toilet wouldn't flush but my husband was able to jingle something to make it work.

"Sleeping in a house party"

User 30/03/2019

The hotel is fine, the pool is adequate, and the restaurant serves some half decent food. That being said, if you don't want to sleep in the middle of a house party then don't sleep here. We stayed in the main area on our first night and it was loud, filled with drunk teenage hockey players being ignored by their parents, until 2:30am. Our second night we were moved to the quiet wing. There was nothing quiet about it. If you want to sleep with large groups of overindulgent teenagers partying all night without supervision then this is the place for you. If you don't, then you should avoid this place like the plague. Just don't.

We were not told about needing a deposit until arriving at the hotel. Couldn't use the pool area because there was so many kids and it wasn't properly maintained. The hallways were crowded were so many children and parents drinking we had to ask them people to move everytime we wanted to leave or get in our room until the manager came and cleared them after we called and complained...they had no idea it was even happening.

"Terrible Stay"

ESReymes, Oshawa 25/03/2019

We were there 2 nights this past weekend. When we arrived we were given a room with that smelt like strong cigarette smoke, also the patio door was broken and was letting cold air in and would not shut. We were then immediately moved to another room, but put in between a block of rooms from a hockey tournament. It was an exhausting stay, we called down to the front desk 4 times about noise complaints. These guests were rudely letting their children play hockey mini sticks in the hallway untill 2am. The parents were loud and drinking and not supervising their kids. The hotel sent up a security guard, who did not rectify the issue, and the general management was not able to do anything about this and the noise was not controlled. I was very close to calling the police. The room was in rough shape we stayed in. The bathroom door knob fell off, and the bed was uncomfortable. Also the hotel staff let parents of the hockey tournament in the pool area with booze, and the pool area became a zoo and parents were not watching their children. It made it an unsafe environment for my kids.

Went for a hockey tournament with a group. Paid $139/night which I felt was pretty steep. The room was OK but they need to clean behind the dressers and beds - peeling paint and dust back there. The kids loved the pool but don't look too close at it. If you do you'll see the 'skin' on the top of the water composed mostly of body oils and hair - nasty. Maybe get a better skimmer.

"Best Staff Ever!!!"

User 18/03/2019

Firstly, everyone member of staff i met, you could feel they liked working at this Hotel, which speaks volumes to me. They feel like a family, rather that individuals and all departments work together. Had to travel alone and away from my wife for the first time in 23 years. would have been harder if not for the staff that looked after me. some amazing people there. Front desk, best welcome ever and so helpful with advice on getting around the area. Housekeepers were so friendly as well and also very knowledgeable on area so please, take the time to ask them anything and they will help you. Management went out of their way to make time to sit and talk. cannot say enough how much all staff helped me. I have even kept in touch with some of these great people and look forward to returning very soon. Great Hotel and although i ate at some roadhouses in area for 2 days of week, best service, food and best evenings i had, were in the Hotel Bar/Restaurant (Myra's) highly recommended. Even if you drink/dine alone, you never feel it as the bar staff are so friendly, you feel like you have known them forever. (kinda fun to hang with as well) Mornings were great, swim in the pool, followed by a good breakfast with many options on offer. See you again soon with my family :)

User 24/02/2019

We stayed after a long business day and were mighty glad to find a very comfy room and Queen bed with great pillows (A king was booked which they got wrong , no matter). The room was quiet and the breakfast was one of the quickest and best. Very fresh food and choice of buffet or freshly made. The only downside of this hotel is the odd design. The elevators are no where near reception. The stairs are slippery laminate and the room was over 100 metre walk. However the staff were friendly and there was ample parking around back

I would not recommend comming to this hotel.it's too much money for what your getting. The food is over priced and terrible.

SMO2015, Canada 07/02/2019

We were booked for two nights (two nights was a minimum stay to receive the group rate, despite the fact we left after the first night - but that's a different story). Located just off the highway on the outskirts of Brantford, this middle-of-the-road hotel had all the basic amenities and quality of service expected of a Best Western. One good highlight was the complimentary breakfast - one of the better ones offered, with made to order omelets and all varieties of hot and cold items - go early if on a weekend or holiday, as we were waiting at least 30 minutes in line to get into the eating area. The bedding was clean and comfortable, but as is the norm, with hockey tournaments in house, the thin walls were definitely not enough to filter the chatter and boys playing in the hallways until late at night. A basic stay, but a solid mainstay for hockey families.

Between the loud heating/cooling system and the train tracks across the street couldn't sleep a wink. I couldn't figure out why the room was shaking throughout the night. It wasn't until morning when I discovered the train tracks. They are located behind the buildings across the street. They are entirely hidden and unnoticeable from the hotel.

User 26/01/2019

My family and I recently stayed at this hotel for my sons basketball tournament. We were promised that the entire team would be on the same floor which we were not and that posed a huge problem as many had small kids. We also booked months in advance to secure this. Furthermore, we were double charged for a security deposit and the security guard kept knocking on our door every 15 min. From 9:30 pm and on to keep it down, however I can assure you that we were not being inconsiderate with our noise level. Let's just say that will be the first and last time we stay here. On a side note we did eat dinner at the hotel restaurant and our food was great.

I was here for work for 2 nights and had an enjoyable stay. The hotel is nothing to rave about and does need some upgrades, but it was a fine stay. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful and everything was within driving distance. I used the gym and it is very outdated but i was able to get some exercise in. The hotel is very large and takes awhile to walk through if you don't park at the correct entrance.

I can not say enough good things about this hotel! All of the staff are more then accommodating. The front desk staff always had a smile on their face and were extremely helpful. The restaurant staff went out of their way to accomadate a rare disease that one of the children had that limits what she can eat. They are all so friendly and make you feel like you are at home.

Becky N, Niagara Falls, 17/01/2019

Stayed for a Conference last weekend - we had one of the family suites - AMAZING! husband and I had our own kind size bedroom - the kids had their own room with bunkbeds and their own tv - AND there was a livingroom, mini kitchen and huge bathroom. LOVED our room. Conference food was excellent! the only thing I wasn't happy with was the hot tub didn't seem to be clean, and the pool area was FREEZING.

We are a family of 5. We stayed here for a hockey tournament this weekend. The room was huge ..my husband and I had our own bedroom there was a little kitchen area and the kids had their own room with bunk beds and a TV. There was also a sitting room with a pullout couch. It was clean. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good. We also had lunch at the restaurant it was good. I would recommend!!

"Quiet zone anything but quiet"

Marina B, Sudbury Ontario 26/12/2018

I chose the Walter Gretzky wing because it is considered a "quiet zone" area. However, it is anything but quiet. My first night, I requested to change rooms at 11 pm due to the noise and the following night was no better. I realize that there are inconsiderate patrons who do not comply to the rules of the hotel, but why should I suffer? I felt that my complaints were not taken seriously and nothing was done. It is such a shame because the hotel itself is beautiful and the restaurant is amazing. If you don't mind noise, then this hotel would be a good choice.

User 15/12/2018

Debbie and I reached out to Melanie, the Brantford Best Western Event planner looking to book a venue for our upcoming wedding on fairly short notice...that was the right choice! Right from the start Melanie welcomed us and made us feel like this was the right choice, even though we had several other options, we made our decision right then after chatting with her. She assisted us in planning the event from the venue set up right through the dining and bar options. She met with us and our minions ( daughters ) who were assisting us with our preparations on several occasions, gave us options, made suggestions all while smiling at our silliness. Melanie was there for our event and ensured things from a Best Western perspective ran smoothy. We can't sing her or the staff's praises enough...thanks for a great day Debbie and Bob

We attended with a large group for a hockey tournament and the staff handled check in and out, as well as the volume of our group at breakfast with no issues. They went over and above and treated my son to a special birthday note and cake which was unexpected and very appreciated. Very affordable given not all families have the same affordability. The hotel was clean and the staff was helpful.

I stay here on average twice a week and ALWAYS get great service from all the girls at the front reception, they know me by name and know what my room preferences are and always go out of their way to make sure I get what I am after. The bar staff ( Karen in particular) is awesome, always friendly and eager to take care of you. The food in the bar is quite good and there are daily specials. Even with several new hotel options coming to town lately I still keep coming back here. I feel at home when away from home.

Flanster, Bowmanville, Canada 12/11/2018

Exterior and rooms are very dated but the lobby and restaurant areas are great. Highly recommend you eat in the restaurant. You wouldn't normally think this at a hotel, but the food is excellent and the value is great compared to chains in the area. Only issue is a phantom restaurant charge on my bill. Staff chalked it up to someone putting the wrong room number on a bill and reversed, but this shouldn't happen

Clean hotel with great amenities. Very nice continental breakfast with all the fixings. Very nice lobby and clean rooms with comfortable beds. Very good hotel service with nice competent, friendly, helpful staff. Only draw back is tv's don't allow for HDMI use, so you are unable to hook android box or PlayStation system up for use. Otherwise wonderful place to stay and would highly recommend.

ts1213, Toronto, Canada 19/10/2018

Breakfast was not good at all, I understand it's free however......You could hear every thing going on in the hall ways....rooms etc....Internet was not very strong, not very many options for hotels in the area. So considering, if I had to stay in Brantford again I would stay here...but I would have breakfast somewhere else and I would try to get the cheapest rate possible. Not worth what I spent.

"Making a reservation"

Lyn09, Ontario 23/09/2018

I called today to make a reservation. The # on the website: 855-516-1090. The person who answered was most likely a call centre from India. He said his name was Jason. There was a lot of talking in the background. I asked for October 18 and 18 because of the Quilt Show at the Best Western Convention Centre. He said it was $130 a night and with taxes, it will be $437. I asked him to repeat it as I was in shock. I said, $260 for the room and $177 in taxes? He said yes. Hotel rooms have a tax of 19%. this is way more than that.

Steve G, London, Canada 12/08/2018

Stayed for 2 nights to attend a wedding in the area. The staff is friendly. Nice restaurant in the hotel. Reasonably priced and good food. Had some confusion at times with the front desk when it came to being connected to the wedding. Gift bags were to be given out to all rooms under the wedding name. Not all rooms received their bags accordingly. We were suppose to have an early check in and late checkout and there always seemed to be lack of communication between the desk and floor staff. Had to remind the staff of the later check out when they came knocking. The general maintenance of the hotel could be better. Many doors stick and you constantly get to hear doors slamming to make them function throughout the hallways. Not sounds you want hear when trying to sleep.The pool area was missing a functioning latch on the men's bathroom door. The sauna was out of order. Very average conditions for the price.

Love2travel19892, Windsor, Ontario, Canada 04/08/2018

We were in the Brantford antique shopping and wanted an inexpensive location with a pool and free breakfast. We originally stopped at anther hotel just down the street (Comfort inn I believe) and they did not have a pool. We were told we could go to another hotel which was a ‘2 minute walk'. The ‘walk' included a trip through restaurant parking lots etc. No thanks We then looked on line and saw this Best Western was just off the 401 with pool free breakfast and the rates weren't bad ($125 with CAA). The room was very clean with fridge, large screen tv etc. The pool area was a bit dated but OK. There was also a hottub and a hot sauna room. There was an abundance of kids so unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to enjoy the hottub or sauna. Breakfast the next mornings by was included and no doubt the best free breakfast we've seen in a long time. You name it, they had it including omelettes or eggs made to order. Breakfast was perfect!!! The restaurant staff was very friendly and really seemed to enjoy what they were doing. There was also a very nice looking bar and patio area with tables located near the restaurant, off the lobby. The hotel does have convention facilities and conference rooms. Overall this Best Western was exactly what we were looking for when searching for a quick overnight stay. We'll be back!!!

awesome service , helpful employees . best of all was the free breakfast . not your standard breakfast but one where you can ORDER an omelette and have it made fresh while you wait with your choice of ingredients. all sorts of fresh fruit to finish, coffee served at your table by friendly servers. I was also lucky enough to get the LAST room available that weekend for the stated price. holiday inn express nearby had a FEW ROOMS LEFT but due to supply and demand they upped the price from 150.00 approx. to 229.00 plus taxes.

User 12/07/2018

If you need to actually sleep, don't stay here. Aesthetically, our room was very nice. It was also very clean. The housekeeping staff work hard here, so props to them for sure!! However, the bed (although a pillow top) was rock hard. I spent the whole night unable to sleep. When I sat on the loveseat in the morning, I realized I should have slept on it instead. We also ended up having loud neighbours (our room was in the 'quiet/silent' section of the hotel). My husband called the front desk, but that didn't end up being effective. The worst part of all, was checking out; I don't think the front desk staff understand the basics of customer service (I can say this, as I've worked numerous customer facing jobs over my working career). They didn't ask how our stay was, and instead of asking how we wanted to pay, they just charged the credit card we reserved the room with. We had wanted to pay by debit, and after my husband protested, the charged his debit. The staff seem so confused and unprofessional. Plus, it has taken almost a week for them to refund his credit card. The whole experience has been so irritating, we will not be coming back.

Stay there while my husband had a job to do in the area. Had my nephew who is five years old join us. We got the mini suite which had a pull out couch area separate from the bedroom which was fantastic for the little guy. He really enjoyed the pool however we found that there were people that came in off the street bags and backpacks and snow boots and food into the pool area. Looks like they came for the day and they were groups of younger people definitely not from the hotel. Staff were friendly throughout the hotel except the breakfast waitress and the food is excellent in the restaurant for breakfast. The hotel is handy to a number of stores and restaurants.

A few of my friends and I recently stayed at this property for a local wedding. We were pleased with how clean the hotel is and how nice the staff was. The only recommendation that I can give to future travelers is to bring ear plugs. We were in the older section of the hotel and the doors were sticky. People were forced to slam their doors as a result and that was pretty loud at 7 am when you have a hangover.

Great price too.Breakfast was included and it was above average with a station to cook omelettes for you.Really nice touch. Highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed at this hotel on a group bicycle trip. The service at the hotel was excellent! The staff at this hotel provided a storage room for us to store our bikes. They also arranged our rooms with the storage room near an outer door so we had easy access to bring our bikes in and out of the hotel. The hotel staff was extremely friendly, the rooms were clean and the restaurant was good. The morning breakfast (included in the room rate) was great! It included an egg station were you could get eggs/omlettes made to your liking and the serving staff were outstanding! We would definitely stay here again.

The hotel was clean, although there was renovation going on in some of the rooms (with sawdust all over the hall carpet). Several problems we had once in the room: The bed felt as though it was made solely of buttons. It was lucky that none of my party were allergic to feathers as the quilt and some of the pillows seemed to be feather. The air conditioning was like sleeping with a pneumatic drill which turned on every 20 minutes. A light from the open section in the middle of the hotel shone like daylight into the room despite the curtains being closed. There wasn't enough room to swing a cat in the bathroom and you had to squeeze behind the door to close it! The reception staff were rude. The only redeeming features of this hotel were the pool area (the hot tub is wonderful) and the cooked breakfast included in the price was tasty. Perhaps it was just the room we were given that was the problem as no one else seems to have had the above in the reviews I've read.

If you like the casino it is close. We enjoyed our stay as a best-western as a card member they gave us an upgrade at no extra charge. The free breakfast is awesome ... its like a real breakfast not just a bagel like some hotels. You can have your eggs the way you like them or an omelet .. They have cereal yogurt fruit coffee was great and you sit at a real table. Room was nice we had a mini king suite. But take it from the breakfast was the finishing touch. Sincerely Phil Jones

Room was clean with fridge, microwave and balcony. I always like the option to be able to open the window and get fresh air. Restaurant breakfast was great - buffet with option for omelet bar which we loved. Had coffee to go cups to self serve to bring to the rinks. Staff were friendly - there were kids playing quietly in the halls and the staff let them be there to be together. Some hotels can be very strict. My kids are older so they weren't in the hall but I remember having very strict staff back in the day.

"Best Hotel Stay I Have Had In A LONG Time..."

JukeboxMama, Ontario 16/04/2018

Seriously, I can not say enough good things about my stay here. First of all, the staff were amazing. It had not been my intent to stay at a hotel, but due to severe weather (ice storm), I stumbled in at 1am hoping to find a room. The staff were great! They got me checked in right away and gave me a decent rate. Also, while I was at the desk - one of the guests that had been there for a wedding also came to inquire about a room. It was clear that the person had been drinking and they were not the easiest customer to deal with... but the staff again were amazing. They handled the situation with complete class - the perfect mix of respect for the customer, but also being completely professional. So well done! Anyway... the room was large, the bed was extremely comfortable, everything was clean and the morning breakfast was excellent. It is not one of your typical hotel breakfast spreads... nope, this one is a complete buffet, along with an omelette bar (staff making omelettes just the way you want them). Seriously... I could find nothing wrong with this stay and if I could give the place extra stars I would. Really, really impressed and will definitely be back again!!!

Stayed here as part of a large wedding group with a nearby wedding not in the hotel. We requested rooms that were close together for us and the other room for our daughter and Grandma. The rooms were: one on the first floor, and the other on the third floor. This would not have been a big deal except that the whole floor on the third floor was locked and not accessible with our key from the first floor. I had to call them every time I went up and it was a real inconvenience and totally unnecessary. I've never seen this feature in another hotel. Overall, the room was clean, quiet, and well-appointed for our needs. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. I would recommend this hotel but the locked fire door on the third floor has to go!

I was married at the Brantford Best Western on the 24th of February and things couldn't have gone better! Every detail was perfect and they were so accommodating to our needs, working with Melanie and the rest of the Best Western staff was a delight and made the whole wedding planning process a breeze! They've done many weddings and events and it's a very fine establishments also a very comfortable and convenient location. The food was mouth watering amazing, our guests couldn't get enough! Everything was so delicious and cooked to perfection, i recommend getting the chicken on the bone and the chicken wings, they're the best. The hotel was clean and had a nice atmosphere for our event, the staff were pleasant and polite and willing to help in any way they could. Our hotel room we stayed in after the wedding was clean and proper, it had everything a good room should have, plus a whirlpool bathtub in the middle of it. The breakfast buffet at Myra's Bar and Grill the next morning was phenomenal, nothing like any hotel breakfast i've ever had! All in All the Best Western Brantford Hotel and Conference Centre made my big day go as smoothly as it could've gone, everything from the planning and prepping down to the next few days after the wedding, they really know how to make you feel at ease and at home over there!

I stayed in room 189 sunday the 11th, The room was very nice the bathroom was nice but the shower door was broken. When I went to fill the hot tub a hour or two after check in I seen it was very murky gross water so I cleaned the hot tub twice. My girl friend who was in the tub two times that night after I cleaned it has hot tub rash and I not even going into the hot tub also have it all over my arms from cleaning the hottub out with just water. Im not sure if your staff just wasnt in the mood to clean it right or if you guys are not cleaning it enough but its a really painful horrible time with this rash.

sseacreature, Brantford 11/01/2018

The rooms are pretty good, the lobby very nice and appealing, the banquet rooms entertain a lot of different functions and are worth looking at, from Auctions to Golf liquidations. The bar is average with not to many customers whenever I have been there. The only thing I really and this is my personal opinion only is that Brantford has a lot better restaurants than Kirby's which is located inside. There is a lot of pasta on their buffet. I have never ordered individually off their menu but it is not my choice place to go. For those in a rush who don't have the time to go out and dine its good enough eats for sure but for those wanting fine dining an experience to quench the pallet this is not the place.

KodoDrummer, Yekaterinburg, Russia 10/01/2018

Our stay began with convenient parking in the large parking lot and then got immediately better with the front desk gentleman who was very friendly and checked us in very quickly. We enjoyed our stay in a room in the Gretzky Wing. The room was very nice, clean, and of a good size. Bed and pillows were very comfortable, and amenities were also very good. I attended a function in one of the meeting rooms. It turned out that we needed a few more chairs, as more people showed up than we had originally told the hotel. They quickly accommodated us with the needed chairs. The coffee and other refreshments brought to the meeting room were also good. The delivery staff members were friendly, attentive, and helpful. Our reservation rate included breakfast, which was exceptionally good. The location is very convenient, being just off Hwy 403, at Wayne Gretzky Parkway. Over 30 years ago, when I first stayed at the property, it was flagged as a Holiday Inn. Hotel brand switching, repositioning, and re-flagging occur frequently. Today, this is a very nice hotel property.

Nice to have a bar / lounge that serves light meals & isn't too noisy. Clean rooms, friendly staff & reasonable price which includes full hot breakfast - go for the made-to-order Omelette & fresh croissants.

This was my 4th visit at this location and as always my stay was perfect. Looking forward to my next stay. The staff is always looking to help making our stay the best exspiriance ever. I recommend the best western in Brantford for any type of visit.

We really enjoyed our experience here! Myself, my husband & our 6 month old stayed in a king bed suite (so our little guy could sleep in bed at 7:00 and we could still stay up in the other room without waking him) in the gretzky wing- the room was spacious and clean, bathroom was a good size, everything was fully functional. Front desk staff were helpful and friendly (even at midnight when I needed help finding a pharmacy near the hotel that would still be open) and breakfast at Myra's was great- lots of options to choose from and friendly staff. Very happy with our stay, we would definitely book again!

We were staying there because we had damage to our home. Our stay was just over 3 months. We have a dog and were thankful that we were able to stay, but with so many families now having pets I feel for long term stay you should have a suite or at least a few rooms with a couch for long term stay.

jackiegQ8853MA, Canada 27/11/2017

Was booked in for a hockey tournament with a group,,,we were all on different floors,,not given a block of rooms. Was given the group rate on confirmation of booking,,then given the group rate upon check in,,then overcharged by $46, on check out. Little to no security on a Saturday night when you have all hockey kids in hotel ,,lots of noise in the hall til wee hours of the night.

Dear jackiegQ8853MA, Thank you for choosing to stay with Best Western Brantford Hotel & Conference Centre. We appreciate your feedback. Rates are quoted at time of booking, and again at check in. It sounds to me that you may have chose an upgraded suite, which has an additional fee, again quoted at time of booking. We would be happy to review your bill with you if you want to reach out to us. We do our absolute best to keep teams together, as it's in everyone's best interest. However, with different requests, it is sometimes difficult to do. Again, thank you for your feedback and choosing Best Western. Warm regards, Joanne Brooks-Calhau, General Manager

We were very pleasantly surprised with the service provided.We had problems in getting the conference rate from the original booking through BW but the hotel worked that out very nicely.The overall stay was above our expectations.

debit7, Lindsay, Ontario 19/11/2017

We have just returned home from a Thursday to Saturday night stay at this comfortable hotel which hosted our annual archaeology conference. Although we were not a part of the organizing committee, from an attendees viewpoint, it seemed like a perfect venue for the event, with everything that was needed for a successful conference. The banquet and seminar halls were spacious and av was more than adequate. The Friday night conference reception and Saturday night banquet were catered by the hotel and the food at both was excellent. There is an onsite restaurantl and our buffet breakfasts were included with the price of our room. We had a suite, but the price was very reasonable ($150 a night including tax) and it was very spacious, with a separate living room and kitchenette. Overall the hotel is very clean and up to date. It is also very easy to find, located directly off a main highway.

value of stay exceeds expectations and the attitude of the staff simply adds to the genuine feeling that you have chosen the best hotel in the city. The complimentary breakfast is a surprising addition and of considerably better quality than a conventional continental breakfast

hotel was nice. nothing special but nice, clean and comfortable. Room was a bit pricey for what it was. We asked for a group rate and it was the same as the rest of the hotel prices. at the end no complaints though. I would stay there again

Second time I stayed here during my business trips. The hotel and rooms are clean and spacious. The wifi was easy to hook up to and the speed was fast enough for me to easily do my work. The staff are all professional and friendly. I asked for a room on the first floor, the nice lady behind the counter made it possible. Best complimentary breakfasts I have ever experienced. The hotel is just off the highway and easy to find. The lunch served at our meetings was delicious and fresh. I would recommend utilizing their hospitality services should you book a meeting at the hotel.

"Business travellers avoid - hockey hell."

alexmac131, Kitchener, Canada 28/10/2017

I have posted this review before and they had it deleted... To that I say to the public reading this - look at the other reviews look at the time frame for 2017 and look at other places with reviews such as google and other products in regard to this company. Check out the time frame and you will see there is a distinct cluster showing a pattern. Also this is not by me my first review or my first hotel stay.. So lets begin... This only applies to Best Western Brantford, I have been in many other hotels of the same chain and only had minor issues. Lets begin... I was attending a mini convention within the hotel and had booked a room in the place for this very reason. Using their website , I found a room that from the photos looked okay and was 270 a night (very expensive, in the end I did not pay that price but less 205)... The photos made it look like a paradise ... Far from the case in fact.. The "hotel" is converted motel with some modern expansions, I was placed in a small boxed room that was aged but on first impressions "would do" ... Five minutes into my stay the kids are running up and down the hall and scream like a play ground disturbing other guests. So I figure I will take a shower and get ready for the Friday night events.. I go into the bathroom and see a dispenser and some odd thing in the shower stall... No worries, its not dirt or some oil (a saw cut in the skin of the shower insert)... I start to shower... no shower gel (I have not even used the room yet and no shower gel - see picture).... Not a happy camper at this stage.. On my way to the event, I let them know about the shower gel, the general state of the room the expense and most of all the noise from the kids running around (hockey team members).. I do not ask for a cheaper rate, I do not ask for a new room just fix the shower. I go meet some folks and go back to my room , the floor staff are about to enter my room so I join them... Apparently the shower things are suppose to be locked and she does not have an access key (mistakenly forgotten it happens , fair enough) note it is suppose to be locked and it was not .. So someone is not doing proper room checks between guests (red flag). I go back to my event and get a call that they are moving me to a quiet wing.. So I accept and think hey I will get a great sleep blah blah blah... Well the quiet area has kids and yelling too, This quiet area should be STRICTLY enforced at all times and this falls on the staff and the management that supervises them.. They seem to think it is okay (again hockey team kids and thus hockey hell)... No worries the room is nice but lacking plugs if you are a business traveller (see photos) a nice room and worth 270 for a motel/hotel. I sleep and I actually sleep good but I go to breakfast inside, buffet style (included in the price of the room, hence the increase in price well above normal) ... I look and there is sausage but no bacon, you have to special order it... REALLY? Special order it while 50 kids and adults run around with wait staff and a front greater who could not find fingers with hand in front of their face in total daylight. To those other than Hockey parents time is money and in fact more valued... You can win money in a lottery but you can not get more time by any means in life , you get what you get and can not hand the grim reaper a pass for another hour .. Thus breakfast was a complete waste of time and the staff were rude and teenage unconcerned ... Example you the read may understand would be asking your child how was school and getting that "fine" answer we all know so well. The staff on the weekend certainly do not like complaints, that is for sure and the night manager (I checked the rules so no last name) Richard set back customer relations so far back they entered an entirely different universe. (Again checked the rules for posting names) Selina the front greeter in the morning cops such an attitude that would put any teenager to shame and could give a PHD lessons in not giving a single concern about a persons stay. Attention to detail is lacking, I have seen conference room trying to hold meetings while the hockey kids are screaming in the hall way and thus the do not recommend anyone hold any sort of meetings here. In the end, if you are a business person wanting a quiet stay where you need a rest don't stay here and do not hold any meetings here.. Attention to detail is important and there were staff who tried their best but in the end the finger can be clearly pointed at management. The general manager of the hotel is the person responsible for providing that leadership and thus it is a complete failure of that person to do their job and maintain a standard for all guests. It is a great place for hockey teams and other kids sport teams , if I was part of that group my review would be a six out of five.. As they pander would pander to my hockey kids ever need.. Otherwise avoid

brucer233, Vineyard Haven, United States 20/10/2017

Though I was placed in a "Quiet Wing", the Hockey Tournament in the area seemed to invalidate the expectation. There was no TV remote in the room. Front desk staff did not answer the phone the two times I called them. I had to walk to the desk to get the remote situation resolved.

"Spoilt by reception"

JWL940, Worcester, United Kingdom 15/10/2017

Very comfortable room, good food, excellent breakfast and very welcoming bar staff. But for the actions, or rather inactions, of one member of reception this would have been a 5star visit. Part of my laundry went AWOL so I reported it that night. The receptionist promised to call the laundry the next morning to track the items down. The next night I ask the same receptionist about my missing laundry, he promised to call the laundry the next morning to track the items down. Hardly Diamond Service to promise a guest something and totally fail to deliver. A great business model however, give the hotel items of clothing to have them lose it and then get charged for the privilege on your final bill.

Large quiet room. Great buffet breakfast with gluten free options. Very knowledgeable kitchen for gf. Large warm pool. Got locked out a few times because of the locked hall policy. Hallway doors only open if you have a room on the floor. Tried to take the stairs and got stuck out back of the hotel.

User 07/10/2017

Horrible experience and its not even over yet. First the front desk person booked the wrong date for our reservation which ended up us loose our room type. Then after checking in a different front desk person told us that the pool closes at 11pm so we made our dinner plans according to that so we head off to the pool at 10pm to find out we are too late. Very disappointed will probably never stay here again.

Comfortable rooms, great breakfast, fast internet. The King Suite rooms are very comfortable and worth the upgrade. If booking with a group try to get everyone in the same section. You can't enter the hallways to other rooms. This is a great security feature for safety but a pain when visiting friends on other floors or sections of hotel. Nice pool and hot tub.

Donald C, Hadley, New York 21/08/2017

I was traveling across Ontario to Michigan and spent the night here along the way. Check-in was easy and the staff friendly. The room was spacious and clean. I arrived a little late to use the pool or hot tub so decided to stay a little longer in the morning to do so. Checkout is 11 A.M. I went to the hot tub at about 10. Water was hot, but there was a distinct ring around the water level of the tub. Also, there was green mold along the adjoining wall to the hot tub. I only stayed a few minutes in the hot tub and went back to my room to finish packing and check out. I informed the front desk of the hot tub conditions upon checkout and was thanked and told they would get housekeeping to clean it. The only other thing that detracted from my stay was the fact that they were preparing to seal a large part of the parking lot and had closed it off which was a little inconvenient for those with lots of luggage staying in that end of the hotel. (But totally understandable!) It's a nice hotel, close to the major highway. I would stay here again if my travels took me through Ontario.

"BW Nice but not wheelchair friendly"

Gail L, Mitchell, Ontario 15/08/2017

We've stayed in this hotel at least three times. Staff is friendly. Parking is lovely. However, entrances to doors--except the lobby--and to other areas of the hotel are not possible for a wheelchair guest travelling alone. Exits have lips or drop downs that make it impossible for a wheelchair guest to enter or exit without assistance. The handicap accessible room has carpet with thick under padding making it hard to wheel across. Mattresses are hard.

"What a mess"

User 09/08/2017

We have stayed here many times always in the family suit and this time we stayed in adjoining rooms as we have 3 kids and need the space. Upon arrival I was told the family suit was not booked for me, but a queen suit, and I was told this was not the fault of the front desk "I would not do that." I have never stayed in any other room here but the family suit. After a lot of waiting we were given adjoining rooms at a discount. But we got to our room and not adjoining, then after another wait another set of rooms and not adjoining again, finally we got our rooms and we were happy! But we woke up in the morning and we were told to move our car as the parking lot was being re surfaced, omg the noise! And not to mention the hike to our car anytime we wanted to go out. Also housekeeping did not make our room up and give us towels until being asked twice to do so. Finally at 3:30 we got rather up set and demanded they make our room and empty the garbage (2 adults 3 kids) they fill up fast! On our second night there was a loud dog barking and the parking lot sealing made everything stink. I am sorry to say we won't be back.

Baseball tournament/family trip. Was a good hotel stayed in two different rooms during the stay. The newer side was to my liking but the older side seemed not cared for and not taken care of. Check out time was not very efficient but overall was a good stay.

We stay at this Best Western when we attend the near by dirt track (20min drive). The staff is always welcoming, beds very comfortable and the inside pool very relaxing. They recently upgraded the breakfast menu to made to order omelette, waffles, oatmeal, home fries, yogurt; with a rotating menu of French toast/pancakes, bacon/sausage. What a wonderful change from the past two years.

We stayed at the Best Western for a powerlifting meet in the hotel. Typical Best Western hotel room, but the bed was large and room was clean. My fiancé had difficulty sleeping. Staff was very friendly. A hot buffet breakfast was included the next morning and it was amazing. It was at Myra's and included: an omelette station, eggs, waffle bar, assortment of bread products, jams, peanut butter etc!

We stay here at this Best Western every year for our son's end of season hockey tournament in Brantford. Hotel is in a good location, lots of restaurants, stores etc.. near by. The staff are always helpful. Rooms are what you would expect from a best Western. They have a complimentary breakfast but if you pay an extra 5.00 ( which I recommend ) you get the upgrade of the hot breakfast which is fantastic. Overall, our stays are pretty good. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a place to stay in Brantford.

This hotel is in a great location for access to highways and everything in Brantford. The front desk staff were very good. The food quality at the breakfast is only average but there is quite a bit of choice. The bed was comfortable and there were no problems, but my hotel room was rundown and dingy looking and so the overall experience did not feel as good as it could have. I would wait for the ongoing renovations to be done before returning.

"Might not be good if you can't walk very far"

User 03/07/2017

The hotel is under renovation. They were painting door trim in one whole wing when we were there. But those rooms were not available anyway. My concern is the long walk within the hotel if you happen to get a room down one of the very long wings. There is only one elevator and if you are on the second floor there is a possibility of walking way down one wing and then just as far down another wing. I have never seen such a weird layout. Usually the elevator is situated in the middle of the hotel. I was there once before but had a 1st floor room close to the lobby. Excellent experience that time. The breakfast is very good to excellent. Bed was comfy. Our room was fine but carpet should be replaces soon. Clean. I would try it again if thy could guarantee me a shorter walk to the lobby.

"Hotel was a mess (Renovations going on, rude cleaning staff)"

J8613UZchrisp, Brantford, Canada 02/05/2017

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights The Hotel was under renovation. Paint was still wet in some areas (I brushed up against white paint sometimes during my stay, ruined my jacket). The hotel cleaning staff person who I asked to help me with the broken remote was terse and rude. The breakfast was pretty bad too. Good bread products, but the entire buffet was a bad (Eggs were horrible). For the cost, I would expect much more from a hotel.

"Limit your expectations...."

Julie L, Toronto, Canada 25/04/2017

I booked this reservation based on the Best Western's location, since I was attending a funeral in Brantford and wanted to be as close to the gatherings as possible. The BW is right off the highway and easy to find, which was a plus. That said..... What was good: the staff was friendly and conscientious; the bed was comfortable. What I wish I'd known before I booked: this BW is in a state of disrepair - though I understand that maintenance can be expected anywhere, the hallway walls in our section (entrance D, near the pool) had been stripped of their paper/paint and didn't appear to have plans for a new coat of anything -- it just looked like a terribly run down building that was on its last legs. Check-in was quick and easy, but for opening the hotel room door to find a repairman on the floor with his tools laid out, saying we'd have to move because 'black stuff' had been coming out of the faucets!? So back to the front desk we went to shift rooms. Along the way were the housekeeping facilities with laundry and garbage storage doors wide open, which remained that way through the duration of our stay. Not a huge deal, just a little thing that contributed to the feel of the place. Once we finally settled into a room, its layout was comfortable, but it wasn't clean in the way I expect a hotel room to be (i.e. things like visible traces of the last occupants' drinks on the nightstands). To put it succinctly: based on the photos I saw on the website and the price, I simply expected way better. That said, if you just need a comfortable bed for one night and don't mind spending about $150 for it, you'll be fine.

Connie M, South River, Canada 10/04/2017

Attended a conference for work which required staying 2 nights. There were signs saying the motel is under renovation & the stairwells had been stripped of wallpaper but didn't come across any actual work being done. My room was clean & met my needs. There was a lot of noise from the hallway & adjoining room. If the parking lot was any indication, the motel must have been full, or close to it. Conference area was clean & presented well. Lunch served on both days was good. At check out, a restaurant charge had been added to my room, which I did not make. The desk clerk quickly verified that the signature on the bill wasn't mine & removed it from my bill.

Stayed for two nights for a hockey tournament. Rooms were clean and amenities were good. The pool looked to be in need of renovations which were taking place in other parts of the hotel. The gym was far superior to most hotel gyms. However was very unimpressed by the disorganized service and mediocre food in the restaurant.

"Not what we expected from Best Western"

DeerDeerOttawa, Ottawa 30/03/2017

Attended a conference so stayed at the hotel for 3 nights. Conference was good and the lunch served at the conference was excellent but expected that it was outside caterers brought in for the event rather than hotel,staff. Check in was straight forward and directions to room were good. Room was musty had to open all the windows to air the room. Room was large with a king bed but with a tub in one corner the layout felt cramped. The bathroom was exceedingly small and the shower was weird. Walk in shower with a curtain on a curve that was to short for the shower. Hence the floor was automatically soaked each time as the water just ran down the shower curtain onto the floor. Put a bottle of coke in the small fridge and it was a block of ice in the morning, no adjustments for temperature were available on the fridge. Reported all this to reception but nothing was done. The corridors were being renovated and made these dark dingy alleyways even worse getting to the conference room. The way to the conference room had to pass the laundry, housekeeping area and maintainence areas all of which had their doors wedged open and the corridor jammed with carts. Not a nice sight. Have stayed in many BW and this must be me to score off our list.

Facility needs an upgrade. Great location easy to get to. Staff were fine and restaurant was fine. Lots of parking. Long way to lobby from some rooms and outside doors lock at 8PM. Would be nice to be able to use room key later at night for said doors. Had a swimming pool and fitness center but did not use either. Lounge was a bit hidden for later at night as you had to go thru the restaurant which closed at 10 Pm. Front desk was very accessible and clean.

_robertpitcher01, Ontario, Canada 14/11/2016

After staying one night here we were disappointed with what is usually very good quality at best Westerns. Upon check in and getting to our room we noticed that the section we were staying in was under renovations and as we were in a hurry to get to where we were going didn't have time to really look at the room Getting back to the room late that night is when we noticed how dated the room was The wooden chairs were very uncomfortable to sit in , we noticed mold around the bathtub and how dirty the carpet was. The beds were clean and comfortable so we decided to spend the night. The Breakfast they offered in the morning was very plain and not even tasty. They did not offer express checkout when we checked in and just assumed it wasn't offered. Check out took almost 20 minutes as there was only one person at the desk and she was dealing with a problem. A few days later I received a survey about our stay , filled it in and sent it back,then we received another then another ?? I don't think BW even reads these . I even called customer service a couple times , had to leave messages and still have received any call back. Bad form all around .

Great hotel. Friendly staff and very helpful. Central location. Room was very clean and bed comfortable. Very affordable. Second time as a guest. Will be back again next year. Highly recommended.

My husband and I had to stay at the hotel for a month because of a difference in sale of house and new one available. The people at the hotel made our stay less stressful. By the end of our stay the staff were like old friends. Always a smile and a warm word of encouragement on a bad day. We want to mention them by name because they were so kind to us, Brenda, Carol, Andre, Lisa, Karen H, Michelle, Annie and the housekeeper Claudette and Emma at the front desk. We actually miss them and a week ago I went back and had breakfast there so I could see them. Thank you.

The restaurant is one of the best around and the price is very reasonable, you can't beat the food or the selection. The hotel is clean, quiet and easily accessible to the 403. Room was great and spacious. One of my best hotel experiences this year.

Sandi M, Windsor, Canada 25/09/2016

Front desk assistance was excellent. Check in was friendly and efficient. Our room was located on the second floor. First impression walking down the halls wasn't the greatest. The carpet was old and gross looking and the wallpaper in the halls looked the same. The old carpet continued in to the rooms. Other than that negative, the room was decent was a fridge and sitting area. The AC unit was very loud every time it turned on. Hall noise is VERY loud. You could hear every single door opening and slamming closed. There are many sporting teams that stay at this hotel so the door slamming lasted pretty late at night. Noise between the walls was actually very good. We could not hear any voices. The breakfast is great. Free continental or a mere $5 if you wish to upgrade to include omelette, sausage, pancakes. We were satisfied with the complimentary breakfast.

RogueSix, Toronto 18/09/2016

Apparently this hotel is going under renovations, which are really needed. Our room wasn't yet renovated, but it was obvious it wasn't properly cleaned from the previous guests. There was dried urine on the toilet seat and hair in the bed. Walls are pretty thin, so you can clearly hear the cleaning cart going by at night and the ice machine. The hotel was pretty busy due to conventions so people walking back and forth in the night woke us up from time to time. The saving grace of this hotel is the breakfast, a good selection with good coffee is available. Wait staff are very friendly and go the extra mile to accommodate. This compensated from the disappointment regarding the room.

The restaurant located in the hotel is excellent AND they do give you % off of dinner and coupon for upgrading the breakfast! The dining staff was very friendly and efficient.

User 16/09/2016

We stayed at the Best Western Brantford from Sept.10th to Sept.13,2016. The room was handicap accessible room and it was laid out quite well. The room was exceptionally clean. My socks were still white after walking around on the carpet for most of the first day. It's quite close to a few restaurants and shopping. It's worth the price to upgrade to the hot breakfast from the continental, it's only $5.00 per person and the hot breakfast includes Bacon,Pancakes,Eggs, home fries, sausage patties and links, and of course coffee and toast. The service in the dining room was excellent . After the first morning Brenda our regular server remembered I like decaf coffee and every morning it was ready and with a smile and a pleasant word for us. Then of course there is Walter Gretsky father of the Great One and he will chat with you and sign autographs if he happens to be there. What more could you ask for in a hotel? We will defiantly be staying there again and thanks again to Brenda for making us feel special.

This was probably one of the best stays we had in a hotel in recent years. The staff was professional, very polite, helpful, knowledgable, etc. Check in and check out was a breeze. It was a breath of fresh air. The Hotel is experiencing renovations. There were signs everywhere that said "please excuse our mess while we make improvments" or something along those lines. That being said, I dont think we seen a single speck of dirt or dust the whole time we were there. Our room was not yet renovated, but it was spotless and comfortable. Lots of pillows, blankets, towels etc. The room was a good size with plenty of room to move around. The bathroom was a bit tight, but I loved the soap dispensers. A family of 4 had more than enough of everything. The included breakfast was fantastic. Everything was VERY fresh and there were tons of options. They also gave you an upgrade option of a plated meal as well. I would gladly stay at this hotel again and I would recommend it to anyone :).

I met my friends for supper and travelled with my other friend. we had not stay here before. the pool area was great and the hotel was in a convenient location to get the rest. and back on the highway. they are updating the hotel but that was no problem. we would stay there again. it was a little high in price because of it being a convention centre as well, but well worth it.

kaylyn21, Toronto, Canada 14/09/2016

The room was very spacious and clean. The pool was heated and very nice. The bed was comfortable and no complaints from the kids on the pull-out either. They had a smaller kiddie pool and a hot tub as well. Included a "free" breakfast, that cost us $30 for my family of 5. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was I felt the price was a bit much for what it is. The staff was friendly and accommodating, I'd probably stay again if I'm in the area.

"Good option"

pisicmic, Toronto, Canada 14/09/2016

Rooms were clean, which was the most important thing for us. Breakfast is not that great, but if you have no other option, it still gives you a start to your day. Wifi worked well. Only issue we had was that the outside door closest to our room had the electric lock broken so anyone could enter the hotel through the back door, even without a key. We told the reception desk but they weren't very quick in dealing with it, when we left in the AM it was still the same way. Overall OK and would probably go back if an overnight in the area was needed.

We found a long black hair on the bathroom floor, we are all blondes. We found a plastic bottle cap in the bed, you would think if the sheets were changed after the last guests the bottle cap wouldn't be there neither would the dark stain on the sheet. We were barefoot walking around the room and food stuck to the bottom of our feet as we walked. Dust and drink stains on the tables. The wall paper is coming off of the walls. They even had the nerve to charge us a DMF tax of 3% for marketing charges.

"Three swimming pools!"

User 04/09/2016

Everyone was really nice, the room was super nice - not at all what we were expecting for such reasonable prices. And three swimming pools - one big enough to swim laps, one shallow kiddie pool with a fountain, and a hot tub. Sweet! There was also an outdoor playground. If you have kids, this would be an excellent hotel.

i have stayed here with my family bunch of time and it has always been a good one. We had came here for leisure and always had fun time. The resort's location is good and it is well maintained. It is good for families and lawn in the resort is very beautifull. The pool and jacuzzi is neat and clean. The food was also good and the front desk was very helpful. Overall it's the best option in brantford. Only problem is they make fool of people in the name of rewards program, they never accept my rewards membership card.

sasphnx, toronto 21/08/2016

Stayed here for one night with a sports team. The facility is clean and well run. The staff are friendly and helpful. The room appeared to be clean and was spacious. Despite the fact that there were a bunch of teams staying in the facility at the same time and a couple of events (wedding, conference) the noise level wasn't bad at all.

"Best Western Addresses Mobility Needs"

5
Gail L, Mitchell, Ontario 09/08/2016

We return to the BW in Brantford each year because this hotel knows how to address mobility issues. The bathroom is perfectly set up for a wheelchair guest, the bed is the right height for transfers and the desk is organized so a wheelchair will go under it and the guest can plug in without having to get under the desk. Microwave, coffee machine and fridge are a nice addition. The room is nicely appointed and large enough for a wheelchair to navigate. While the rates are a little pricey it is worth it for the amenities. Don't bother with the $5 "hot breakfast: option. It isn't worth it. The free continental breakfast has lots of choice.

BW66036, Manager at BEST WESTERN Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear Gail L Thank you for choosing to stay with Best Western Brantford Hotel & Conference Centre. We certainly appreciate you taking the time to provide a detailed review of our accessible suites.

"rooms need upgrading"

Angele C, brantford, Canada 08/08/2016

The rooms need upgrading. Old stained carpets and a smells a little musty. The rooms needs more lighting. Outdated décor though that's the least of my worries. No room safe. Close to highway so a little noisy but location is good otherwise. Nice restaurant but you have to pay extra for the warm breakfast. The pool, hot tub and sauna are quite nice.

BW66036, Manager at BEST WESTERN Brantford Hotel And Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear Angele C Thank you for choosing to stay with Best Western Brantford Hotel & Conference Centre. I am sorry to hear that the guest room you stayed in did not meet your expectation.

"Perfect for family"

Thomas J, timmins, Canada 08/08/2016

This is so far the best hotel that i have stayed in having a large family. Our room came with enough place for us all to stay. Food was excellent, and we came at a time there was live music at supper. I changed hotel to be closer to our next days events, and regretted it. It would have been more worth it to stay here and travel the hour than stay at the Hilton like we did.

Dear Thomas Thank you for choosing to stay with Best Western Brantford Hotel & Conference Centre.

"Meh, just OK"

ALGM, Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory, ON 03/08/2016

My son and I stayed two nights in the Walter Gretzky Wing, in a two queen suite, with pull-out couch, fireplace, mini-fridge, microwave and flat screen tv. Room was large, and bathroom was spacious as well. However, wall paper was peeling off the walls. Only a continental breakfast was included, not a hot breakfast (first I've ever seen at a Best Western). You get vouchers when checking into hotel, to pay an extra $5 for the hot buffet. First morning, when entering the restaurant, the sign said, 'wait to be seated'. After waiting a LONG period of time, we sat ourselves, and had to wait to be noticed by wait staff. Food was ok. There is an omelette station (did not try), where you have to go TO ASK for bacon, as this is not in the hot buffet with the rest of the breakfast meat, eggs and potatoes. When finished, we waited an extremely LONG time for wait staff to bring us a bill, so I decided to just walk out. They certainly came running at that point. Second morning the line was out the door, so we went to McD's, rather than waiting to beg for bacon, and only get noticed when they want to get paid. The hotel claims to be a Best Western Plus (outside sign), but under new hotel branding (logo), it is only a Best Western. Fast food, restaurants and shopping mall are a quick drive away. I would only stay here again, because hotel choices in Brantford are extremely limited.

Karen R, Marcellus, United States 28/07/2016

The hotel is great. Friendly people, clean rooms and wait staff that is always ready to help. If they offer an upgrade, take it. It would be well worth it to be upgraded. There has been a change in ownership of either the restaurant or hotel or both since our last stay. The normally satisfying Best Western breakfast is not the norm here! Fruit, pastries, breads, oatmeal, sugar cereal are all that is offered; no protein here unless you count the peanut butter spread for the oatmeal! But wait there is a $5 CAN/person "upgrade" that is french toast, pancakes(more starch) or greasy eggs. Stay here is wonderful; but save yourself $5 CAN/person unless you love sugar and starch and everything to raise your blood sugar.

Dear Karen R Thank you for choosing to stay with Best Western Brantford Hotel and Conference Centre. I am pleased to know that you enjoyed our great hotel, friendly people and clean guest rooms.

We do offer our hotel guests a complimentary continental breakfast included fresh fruit, homestyle oatmeal, assorted yogurts with toppings, waffles and so many other items.

Susan M, Brockville, Canada 28/05/2016

We had a fantastic King size room in the Walter Gretsky wing. This section of the hotel is know as the quiet wing and our room was very quiet, clean, spacious, and nicely decorated. The hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating and made our stay very enjoyable. For those with children there are rooms with patio's overlooking an outdoor play structure for the children along with a nice indoor pool and a well appointed workout room for the adults. The hotel also provides a good size continental breakfast buffet from 7 am until 10 am and if you would prefer a hot breakfast buffet there is a nominal charge (approx. $6) . We had the continental breakfast and the hotel even provided gluten free bread which they toasted on a toaster provided for gluten free bread only. If you are Celiac or have a gluten allergy you know how important this can be.

excellent experience without any complaints other than the refrigerator in the wheelchair accessible room was not turned on at the time of arrival. We thought it was not working until the following day a relative noticed it was turned off at the back. It should have been working at the time of arrival especially when there are wheelchair-bound patrons are involved. It is physically impossible for a person in a wheelchair to access the back. Great location, quality rooms and terrific staff.

User 18/05/2016

We recently attended a family function in Brantford and considering the nature of the festivities thought that it would be a good idea to stay at the best western. This place is showing its age in the hallways and rooms but it's not decrepit by any means. What we didn't care for was the fact that we could hear every word that was said in the next room and they weren't yelling!!!! A little unsettling!!! Breakfast the next morning was a long lineup which we finally decided wasn't worth the wait. We could see numerous empty tables but the staff was studiously ignoring the lineup. Pissed me off.

AdrianSly, Ottawa, Canada 18/05/2016

Nothing to criticize at this place. Everything that we could have expected was ' top notch " . Extremely welcoming , friendly and courteous. Jackie and Tianna were phenomenal in helping us, plan this trip for our swim team of 40 kids. Every single staff member seemed to be unflustered with all chaos that could arrive from having multiple teams stay, at the same time. The rooms are spacious,..more than we had expected,..and although many don't have microwaves,..they do all have mini-fridges. The catering and food quality were great..and again, they were more than willing to accommodate for allergies and food sensitivities. Thank you once again to the staff...and hope to return when we are in the neighbourhood.

Jill W, Atwood, Canada 08/05/2016

My daughter and I had a very nice rest in our room and loved the beds but were a little bit surprised about how small the bathroom was! I was also really unpleasantly surprised about the service we received during our breakfast. I know it's a busy time for the waitresses as they are running back and forth waiting on everyone who's in a rush to get their breakfast but all it takes is a friendly smile and some friendly banter. Both the waitresses were short with me and I thought, gosh, I'm really sorry to have bothered you.

Ali R, Kingston, Ontario, Canada 07/05/2016

In Brantford on business and my partner and I stayed here. It's a very large, sprawl-y hotel so we had to walk pretty far to get to our room. The bed was not that comfortable, and the air conditioner in our room was very loud and it would turn on and off, which woke me up once. The hotel was clean enough and our room had a nice sitting area with sofas and a desk in addition to one double bed. The food in the morning was okay.

The halls were quiet. The furniture was comfortable. Excellent overall experience.

"Good hotel, BUT...."

yeltao, ontario 12/04/2016

Hotel was very good, but, hockey tournament packs of kids running the halls unsupervised right up to 11 pm at night is not acceptable. Management needs to address the comfort level of the guests who are not affiliated with the travel hockey teams. The travel teams may be a very lucrative market, but, it would be responsible on the staff's part to enforce some type of control, even if the parents are not stepping up to the plate.

The hotel is very conveniently located near the highway, shopping centers and restaurants. Great for a 1 or 2-night stay for business purposes...

We are staying here for 5 days (still here) and very impressed so far. We have a drive up room which is great whilst there is still clearly some updating required everywhere is clean and well appointed.. We have a room with 2 queen size beds but there are plenty of other room configurations on offer. The restaurant and bar area are lovely, great choice on the menu but the portions were too large for us. Waiting staff are super helpful which is not uncommon in Canada but still nice to experience.

My wife was here for work for a few days and we came down to join her. The pool was well used and reasonably well maintained though the hot tub could have used a bit of a scrub. Our room was fine and the beds were comfortable. They are obviously updating rooms but our had not been done yet. I had eaten supper at the restaurant previously and it was quite good. The breakfast was nothing special, but it had some nice options. Go for the custom made omelette. Our server was very sweet and had us sit down instead of standing and waiting for out omelettes.

Staff was very nice everywhere in the hotel. Love the suite with 2 bedrooms and bunk beds. Very quiet hotel. Will go back for sure! Perfect for a family with kids - this room can sleep 6 people very easily!

Great Great Hotel. Staff makes thing easy and comfortable. I always stay here . No other option to me when i come over to Brantford, Canada Restaurant quality and service is superb. Prices are also a great value

"Lots of parking"

TravelBud24, Toronto, Canada 05/03/2016

There is lots of parking here with many entry doors. This is a large hotel but at least you can park close to your room. The staff here were very friendly and accommodating. My room was nice and clean. I did have a personalized letter waiting for me when I arrived with a lil welcome bag which really made my day. I would stay again.

"Good Hotel"

User 29/02/2016

Bathroom tiles a little moldy and the hot tub has some scum. Room decor is modern. Internet connectivity was erratic, but usually connected. Continental breakfast has no warm items that are complimentary. Overall we are satisfied with our stay and would consider staying here again.

"Good location, decent stay"

David T, Ottawa, Canada 25/02/2016

Good location if your travelling and need to stop over. Room was pretty decent, reasonable internet connectivity which I was looking into mainly. They do have a nice restaurant which I would say is good, breakfast was ok and lunch buffet is quite reasonable, food was good and fresh. I did stay at a motel in London Ontario last time and compared to that I prefer this place.

Hotel is great. Some updates have been made. Breakfast good as you had a selection of pasties, bread and bagels. Lots of fruit to select from. If you wanted you could upgrade for $5 for eggs and bacon. Pool was down for maintenance when we were there kids a little disappointed. All in all good place to stay.

Dear Kek74 Thank you for choosing to stay with BEST WESTERN PLUS Brant Park Inn. It is nice to know that you enjoyed our complimentary continental breakfast and the option to upgrade. I am sorry to know that your kids were disappointed due to our temporary closure for pool maintenance but that your family still enjoyed their visit. Unfortunately maintenance issues "pop up" once in a while and they need to be dealt with. Thank you for understanding, we certainly appreciate it. We look forward to your return visit.

I frequently stay at this hotel for business and have a consistently positive experience. The staff are very welcoming, especially the breakfast team, the rooms are comfortable, and the hotel is usually quiet. Continental breakfast is included, and the hot oatmeal is the best I have had at any hotel.

Kerry P, Mississauga, Canada 23/02/2016

I really enjoyed my 1 night stay. I could have stayed for a week and have everything I needed. Modern and clean with comfortable furniture and a great TV that swiveled to face the desk when I was working or the couch when I was lounging. Extra TV in large bedroom also. Convenient kitchenette with sink and necessities and large bathroom with ample counter space. My only disappointment was the mattress was not the usual Best Western standard and the sheets did not fit properly. The duvet and pillows were nice and I did sleep well.

"Truly the worst hotel and staff ever!"

Nadia T, Montreal, Canada 17/02/2016

No choice I have to go to this hotel every year to my company meetings and dread it in advance! The worst hotel I have ever been to and it is so mainly because of the incompetent staff who insists on not listening to your needs and telling inaccurate information! Why can't they hire proper people to work there?? Small town blues? They can't find efficient people to work their? I asked for a quiet room as I have been doing so for over 19 years! Where do they place me?? Facing the highway where the noise is unbeleivable and not facing the court side where do they place me? Facing the high way!! I was there for three nights and never got any sleep!

BW66036, Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Brant Park Inn & Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear Nadia T I am sorry to read that you were not satisfied with your stay or the service of our team. I accept your feedback and will discuss it with our team to ensure we continue to reach our goal of exceeding our guest expectations. I am confident in saying that my team is very competent in taking care of our guests and making decisions. The beautiful city of Brantford is home to wonderful, caring people. Our front desk team is trained and experienced in dealing with challenges, and had they known you were not satisfied with your room, they would have been pleased to move you. So that you don't have to dread any future stays, may I suggest you email your specific requests to us in advance. I see that you have stayed in our Gretzky Wing in the past, perhaps the upgrade to the quiet zone would ensure your satisfaction. If you would like to discuss your comments further, please don't hesitate to contact me. Warm regards, Joanne Brooks-Calhau, Assistant General Manager

JoeyMit, Sellersville, Pennsylvania 16/02/2016

OK. the hotel served its purpose. I needed to stay for work in Brantford. But if I didn't have other hotels to compare to this review might be better. But there were a lot of little issues, ok bigger issues that will cause me to never stay there again. (Though I may since it seems to be the only hotel in town.) Some issues. Door handle, turn up then down to make the door work. The room didn't get cleaned one day, then the next day the maid left one of those cards "how are we doing, we give excellent care" index cards. The shower, never could stay on one temperature. The lighting was so dim in the bathroom when you showered you were in the dark. The sink never drained. The toiletries smelled bad and didn't lather (that may be the problem of the water). The towels were so hard that they never dried my body completely. Who puts a step up to the heater, so in the middle of the night when you go to change the temperature of the room , you trip and fall onto the heater. Lets put it to you this way, the best part of the room? the 2 port USB phone charger by the bed. Best thing I have ever seen in any room. But that is it. So you see these are some of my issues. Maybe I'm nitpicky, but I had just recently stayed at a Holiday Inn and it was like night and day.

sugarplum99, Toronto, ontario 06/02/2016

This is my second and last time staying at this hotel. We stayed at this place as we were visiting family and wanted to let the kids have a good time swimming. We live in Toronto so it's definitely not a stay because of a long distance drive. Our room almost came to 200 dollars. (should of stayed at great wolf Lodge for around the same price a night) we checked in and the room was as okay. Minus the dead flies on the window frame. We went to swim and to be honest although super gross I noticed feces in the small kiddie pool and on the pool deck. I reluctantly turned a blind eye and decided to let the kids swim in the big pool,as this was the purpose of our trip. At this time it was all clear. Swam for maybe five minutes and noticed feces in the pool on the steps of the big pool . I gathered my kids and quickly left and went to express my concern to front desk staff. As I was telling staff what happened, a young man asked where the pool was. I told him there was feces in it and was SHOCKED when front desk staff told him where the pool was. News flash Best Western when someone defecates in a pool you need to clear the pool and shock it to prevent illness to your guests. I also found out you open your pool to non hotel guests, and anyone can buy a monthly membership. I've never heard of this before. People walking on the deck with dirty boots etc, some major health and safety violations going on here. One positive.. The Kirby Resturant had good food. Wish I went home after our family visit. I'd be 200 richer and a lot happier.

BW66036, Manager at BEST WESTERN PLUS Brant Park Inn & Conference Centre, responded to this review
Dear sugarplum99, Thank you for choosing to stay at the BEST WESTERN PLUS Brant Park Inn with your family. We sincerely apologize that you found this problem in our pool. It is unfortunate that these types of accidents occur on rare occasions and are beyond our control. We inspect our pool regularly every 2 hours and it was inspected shortly before you reported this condition. Our staff and management are trained in procedures to properly deal with this. The pool was closed immediately, cleaned and treated. We did everything in accordance to protocol to protect our guests comfort and safety. We do have a beautiful pool facility and take proactive care to ensure it is clean and safe. I am sorry that our apology, fast action of our team and gesture of goodwill was not enough to put your mind at ease. I am pleased to know that you enjoyed the food at Kirby's Bar and Buffet and I truly hope that you will give us another opportunity to welcome you and your children the next time you are in the area.

Dwayners13, Chatham, Canada 02/02/2016

We can't say enough about this hotel, it's staff & service. We original stayed there because it was very close to our daughter's swim meet at the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre (5-10 mins away) plus it has a 'family suite' with a master BR, living room & separate BR for our daughter & teammate (really reasonable). While we stay at a lot of hotels for swim meets, we were really impressed by the staff & service.. Due to problems I had with a medical condition they allowed my family to check in a bit earlier & even check out a little later without charging us extra (which has happen before at other hotels). The restaurant was great, free breakfast, the kids loved the pool & playground & of course having their own room with a TV. We have some more swim meets in Brantford this year & will be staying there again as well as recommending it to the other families. I have no problems recommending this hotel to any teams & families going to Brantford.

"9 out of 10"

Cambams, Hamilton, Canada 04/01/2016

We stayed here for a wedding and everything was almost perfect. The rooms we booked were fantastic and large, clean and reasonably priced, the customer service, both at reception and especially at the dinner were way above average! Most events like this, you would rarely see a supervisor or manager on the floor, but we did throughout the night. Even late in the evening, someone had spilled wine and 2 servers noticed the stain at the empty table and while the people were up dancing, they carefully moved everyone's belongings, table decorations, candles etc and put down a fresh table cloth, and put everything back as they found it...I was very impressed with this. Even the next morning our breakfast server asked if we had slept well and had enjoyed our stay. The reason it wasn't a 10-10 is because of 2 reasons. The food at the wedding could have been better. The Chicken was cooked to perfection, hot, juicy and very moist, however the skin was soft and too moist like under cooked bacon...not edible. Not sure what the sauce was, but it's consistency didn't look appetizing including the way it was spread onto the chicken. Also, the vegetables were properly cooked, which is good, but I had a few pieces of zucchini that still had not been trimmed at their ends...small things, but something for your Chef to work on to improve. The main issue that was our biggest "take away" was from when we went to the Brunch (almost $18 per person), the morning after the wedding, my family and I had sat down and right away the servers came around offering coffee to everyone, only to find out LATER it was NOT included and was an additional $2+ per person. I was stunned. I have been in the Hospitality business for 35 years both as an Executive Chef and GM of large food operations, and felt this was such a petty thing to do. Perception is so important and everyone's perception was that we were being "ripped off" in a way. Too bad it was our last interaction with the hotel before we left. Everything had been so good up to that point, especially the customer service, and we left with a bad taste in our mouths. I think this is something the hotel needs to review. My suggestion would be to include the coffee, even if you have to raise the price slightly. In closing, I would highly recommend this hotel and I would definitely stay here again.

User 01/12/2015

My daughter and family accompanied me for an overnight stay at Best Western Plus in Brantford, Ontario. We took the Family Suite. There were not enough towels for all of us, neither were there enough wash cloths. The kids' room was not properly cleaned. The toilet needed plunging and the shower curtain had burnt holes in it. There were items of garbage left from the previous occupants (eg. a hair clip on the floor).

Stephan S, Ottawa, Canada 26/11/2015

This is a BUSY hotel. Oh my ! Check-in had a group of 12 people ahead of us with only two people at the desk, so took over 15 minutes just to get in front of a person. Guess they can't control when people show up, so can't fault them for that, but be aware this hotel has A LOT of halls with MANY events and it's BUSY. Not the most quiet place, so if you want quiet, make sure to request a room in the Gretzky Wing, which is a key only accessible wing and dead quiet. Large rooms, very comfortable. A bit dated, but clean. Nothing over the top to report here, but nothing negative either. I guess average is the right word. Continental breakfast is included, and for a few $ more, you can get more options such as made to order omelets and warm food. Nice to have the option.

We stay in a lot of hotels for business and the Best Western in Brantford ranks up there with the best of them. Conveniently located 1/2 way between Niagara Falls & Detroit. The rooms are clean, the staff super friendly and the pricing fair. The complimentary breakfast buffet is way above average with an option for custom gourmet breakfast order for $5. Great cable TV package, swimming pool and gym. What more does a traveler need?

Sincity031, Toronto, Canada 31/10/2015

I stayed at this hotel for one week and it was a nightmare. The hotel needs a major overhaul and its old and smells of cigarette smoke. I was in two different rooms and I was not happy but had no choice but to stay because my company had their acct with them. Rooms are old, sheets had crumbs on them, rooms smelt of smoke and stale air, heater was either too hot and no medium setting. Breakfast was a pain to remember to hand out pink slips supplied by the front desk, for coffee and toast and canned fruit. The hot breakfast which is standard in other hotels was $5.00 and that the eggs and french toast was dry and just awful. Dinner was too expensive to eat there and the buffet was a joke. I felt bad that my company had to pay for this hotel but I guess they were unable to get into the other hotel. We had about 10 to 20 rooms booked each week. Hockey kids were loud and noisy and security doors were never locked. Just a awful hotel and I am surprised that the BEST WESTERN still has this hotel operating. I would not go back to that hotel if i was offered the rooms free. The towels were not changed daily even though they were lying on the floor. Just a trashy place and the staff were not friendly at all.

Dear Sincity031 Thank you for your opinion of our hotel, I'm sorry to know you did not enjoy your stay. Our hotel is completely non-smoking which we strongly try to enforce. I'm sorry that the coupons for the complimentary deluxe continental breakfast were not convenient for you. Our restaurant is open to the public therefore the servers need to know who is "in house". I'm also sorry to know that you felt $5.00 was to high for fresh eggs made-to-order and fresh omelettes made-to-order and two proteins, plus all the other items. Hopefully you will chose to return to enjoy the awesome food, friendly outgoing staff, comforts of our guest rooms and the warmth of our hospitality.

"Nice place, no extras"

ColleenGuy, Ontario 27/10/2015

Stayed there for 4 nights and had one room. I have a bit of a phobia about hotels as we have had some really bad experiences in the past, especially with Best Westerns. The lobby was really nice, very clean and welcoming. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Our room...in the old wing and in need of updating. We had a room on the ground level very drafty patio doors.Nice really comfortable beds and the place is very clean. The heating situation, well lets say its in need of an update. Its an in wall unit and VERY noisy. I suppose it drowns out the hwy noise though but I also suspect it's why my allergies are acting up...dusty. The bathroom was very clean although very tiny. Definitely not a space for more than 1 person at a time. In fact the" door just misses the toilet seat" kind of tiny. The room has a bar fridge, nice big screen tv, fold out couch (from which we had to take the blanket from just for getting cozy on the couch( to ward off that draft from the patio door).There is also a coffee maker and free wifi. Really wish that there was a microwave in the unit as I spent the majority of my time here while my husband was at his work conference. It would be nice to be able to warm up a coffee( as there was no complimentary coffee available). This brings me to the reason that a microwave would be beneficial. Quite simply , the food here is awful. Borderline non edible. We were given vouchers for a free continental breakfast, and for $5 we could upgrade to the hot breakfast. Food was cold. The eggs had a "crust" on the top, the bacon was all fat and there was 4 pieces and also cold. We never went back and instead went out to eat.Coras for breakfast was far superior and we had dinner out also as we didn't want to waste our money on a place that cant even get eggs right. I had purchased salads for my lunches and it would have been handy to be able to warm up some chicken for my lunch. The pool was nice as was the hot tub and the gym...very basic. Had a few issues with parking as there was also a job fair going on and there were NO parking spots left. I had to park over at the Home Depot for 1 day...poor planning there. I know that we got a reduced rate during this conference, and I have to say, there is no way I would pay the regular rate to stay here. Its clean but in need of some updates and some basic "niceities" even if its a free cup of joe!

"Nice noisy rooms"

echo5miller, Whitsett, North Carolina 25/10/2015

Stayed here 7 days and had 3 rooms. The rooms are clean and nicely decorated. And the first floor has sliding doors which are great to get things in and out to the car. There is a good restaurant with a friendly staff and a decent lounge. There are other restaurants just across the highway. Every room has a wall heater/cooler which make a lot of noise and mingles with the noise coming from the hallway. People just talking in the hall sounds as if the door is open. When staying on the front side you can easily here what is going on in the parking lot and when a train goes by. The room at the end of the building was near the indoor pool which you can smell almost all the way up the hall. This room also puts you in ear shot of the highway. Over all a nice room but over priced and very noisy, especially on the weekend when it was full of kids running all over the place.

Very nice room. We had gas fireplace. Nice touch. Had a great meal at Kirby's. Staff was very good. We arrived without a reservation and they were very accommodating giving us several choices. We will return to stay again.

This is one of the top best westerns I have stayed at. The cleanliness and service was top rated. I always say you can't go wrong choosing a Best Western. The bed was really comfortable. We stayed in the Wayne Gretzky Wing which was extremely quiet. I have no complaints whatsoever about this hotel and highly recommend it

I took my 2 granddaughters to celebrate their 7th birthdays because they enjoy swimming. The rest of my family joined us for the scrumptious dinner buffet and more swimming. I feel safe at this Brantford hotel and the staff were very helpful. Excellent location near the 403.

The front desk staff was friendlly and offered quick service. The room standards are below average. The carpet and wall paper were poorly installed. Bathroom tub had mold and rust. Door did not shut well.

Best Western Plus in Brantford is a simple and affordable, but very well appointed hotel with all the amenities I needed. The staff were pleasant and the rooms comfortable and very clean. I would highly recommend.

Stayed weekend from 25 - 28 September. Had king jacuzzi suite that was well appointed. Very large with the best jacuzzi tub we've had anywhere. Breakfast was great. Recommend it to anyone traveling into the area.

"Bring your ear plugs"

I likely would have slept okay if not for the persistent opening and closing of the access door outside my room. I was also pretty surprised actually how many people need ice so late at night and so early in the morning. I checked it out in the morning to make sure the machine wasn't hooked up to a loud speaker, but it wasn't. It's just strategically placed to ensure maximum effect to room 181. The staff were great, and the hotel itself is actually quite nice. I however, left tired and disappointed.

Dear Don N Thank you for choosing to stay at BEST WESTERN PLUS Brant Park Inn. I am sorry to know that you did not get the peaceful sleep that you deserve. May I suggest for future stays that you request to be away from an ice machine? We would have been pleased change your room or to offer you complimentary ear plugs to help with your sleep. Again I apologize that you didn't get a peaceful sleep. We look forward to your return visit. Please continue to let us know how we are doing. Yours in hospitality, Joanne Brooks-Calhau

Great place to stay, close to the highway. Restaurant was good and the bar/lounge was excellent, service was amazing. Rooms were very clean. Decorating and carpets are dated but that is not as important as having clean rooms. Everything was clean and our room had a bar fridge for our use as well.
