3-star hotels in Windsor
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Windsor, Ontario, from historic inns to a downtown Marriott and a riverside property. It is for travellers who want a comfortable base near the riverfront, the downtown casinos and the Ambassador Bridge crossing without stepping up to four-star rates.
Staying in Windsor
Windsor sits on the Detroit River across from the Detroit skyline, and its riverfront parks and trails, downtown casinos and restaurants, and Essex County wineries give a visit plenty of shape. The city also hosts events such as the Windsor International Film Festival, and the Ambassador Bridge and Detroit-Windsor Tunnel make it a natural stop between southwestern Ontario and the Detroit metropolitan area.
The hotels here are spread across several parts of the city. Downtown addresses on Ouellette Avenue and Dougall Avenue put guests near the riverfront and the tunnel, while Huron Church Road sits close to the Ambassador Bridge. Erie Street South and Sandwich Street lie on the historic west side, and Monmouth Road is in Walkerville. A cluster of addresses on Seacliff Drive and in Kingsville, plus Talbot Street East and Bevel Line Road, sit outside the central core. Couples and short-break visitors gravitate to the inns and bed and breakfasts, while business travellers and families favour the downtown and bridge-side properties with pools, restaurants and parking.
