Travel Accommodation: Choosing a Hotel or Motel
There is accommodation in Regina to suit any budget. You can stay at the local Hostel for only dollars a day, or you can stay in hotel suites that are good enough for visiting prime ministers. Pricing is seasonal. Summer is high season in the Regina area being vacation and travel season. Regina hotels are popular with both Canadians traveling across the country to points east or west, and also for rural residents making it a "shopping weekend" in the big city. Area hotels are also more expensive over holidays and long weekends. Fall (September to December) and spring (April to June) are definitely the less expensive times to visit. Each hotel's dates for high, low, and shoulder seasons differ a bit so watch your timing or your hotel. Our pricing guidelines (exclusive of taxes) are as follows:
Location 
The desired location of the hotel depends on the purpose of your visit.
We have grouped the hotels by "Area" to assist you with selecting appropriate accommodation. The Area is in most cases, the city in which a hotel is located. Inside the City of Regina, we also list the part of town.
If you are in Regina on business, you would want a hotel in the Downtown core. Several hotels are within walking distance (or a $4 to$8 cab ride) of downtown shopping, the many restaurants and the nightlife. These hotels are also relatively close ($20 taxi) to the airport. There are some value-conscious hotels in the Downtown area. You can walk to downtown or to Wascana Lake from most downtown hotels, though the size of Wascana Lake may make a taxi or car preferable. If you are here for power-shopping for the family, there are plenty of hotels along Albert St, south of Wascana Lake, and just east of the airport (and notably, away from the runways). This area is also called the "Golden Mile" (also the name of one of the malls on this stretch). These hotels are only a few short miles from the downtown core, as well. If you are travelling across Canada along the TransCanada Highway (#1) , or if you are planning to arrive or depart from the Regina Airport, you'll find anything on Albert Street quite convenient.
If you are trying to find something VERY NEAR your meeting, use the "Postal" feature in the Hotel Search screen, where we match the first the digits/characters of the postal code! This also works on our Restaurant search, to find a restaurant near your hotel (and in every other search form on our site).
