It was enough for my needs! Easy parking and free. Good location and nice price! The only problem is that the restaurant opens at 8 only so I had to get breakfast in another place. The room service amazing .

Disliked: Amenities
The bathroom was without any conditioner, just a small shampoo. Most staff were not friendly or courteous. Only the front desk staff is polite. The one and only elevator is kind of jumpy and scary with buttons that’s not very responsive. One bed was right next to the noisy fan unit which blows strongly onto the bed even when I turned off the cooling air conditioner and only use fan. The grid wasn’t able to tilt up so I ended up having to use a pillow to block the strong wind blowing against my head all night long!
It was impossible to avoid the fan blowing right onto the bed

Stayed here because of concert in Hamilton. Good location, near concert venue, lakeshore parks and highway. Did not have conditioner, which was disappointing. Other than that it was clean and convenient

Property could use some cleaning and repair. Our room was much better than I had expected. The city tents space to use rooms as overflow for homeless shelter. We thought this was fine but have to nice to know in advance.

Right now the construction makes it hard to get to. There were a lot of shady folk hanging around the parking lot making it appear unsafe. The staff tried to charge me more than my quoted price. The hotel is nice and well maintained. Rooms was huge! The restaurant was great food was delicious. I am so glad they had one so we did not have to go searching for a place to eat. I am sure that once the road construction is completed this will be a fabulous place to stay.

I found Admiral Inn Hamilton was surprisingly accessible for someone without a car coming in from Toronto Union station (Go Train to Burlington, then Bus #1 to York at Dundurn). Met up in the mid-afternoon with my sister, brother-in-law and their son who were also staying there briefly before we left to attend a wedding and reception nearby. I can't comment on the restaurant since, other than coffee in the morning, we did not have the time to eat there. Similarly, the main reason I gave the services and facilities only 4 rather than 5 stars was that I did not use them.

The staff were friendly! The bed was super comfy! The water pressure in the shower was not good, especially for me; someone with thick hair. The hallway outside of our room did not smell good. Thankfully the room itself was clean. I was disappointed that there were people outside the door smoking.

Hotel Review I recently stayed at this hotel for one night, and while it served its purpose, there were some noticeable issues. The property itself felt a bit dated, but I found it clean enough. However, there were a number of displaced people staying here, and their children were quite noisy throughout the evening. There was also a strong presence of smoking, which impacted my experience—the room itself had a lingering smoke smell that was hard to ignore. On a positive note, the front desk staff was excellent and very helpful, which I appreciated. For a quick one-night stay, it was manageable, but I’m not sure I’d choose it for a longer visit.

The hotel wasn’t anything too special. The carpets in the halls and rooms require a cleaning, the room I stayed in (non-smoking) smelled of smoke. The tub drain was plugged by the stopper before my stay and the faucet leaked my first day/night; by the morning the tub had filled with water. Some outlets didn’t work and the thick blanket provided smelled of body odour. The staff were helpful and friendly but the hotel itself needs to be updated.

The room I was staying in had a door connecting to my neighbours' room. The sound isolation was already not great, but with that door it was unacceptable - I could hear every word my neighbours were saying (and vice versa). One of them was incredibly loud early in the morning when I was feeling unwell and needed to get proper sleep, and I could not get transferred to another room because they were all full. I also did not expect this place to not have breakfast included. There is only one restaurant in the building; otherwise, you gotta walk for quite a bit to reach any food places (I did not have a car). The staff were lovely and did everything in their power to help me, no issues there.
