I’ve been doing some research into accommodations. I would recommend the following places:
Motel 6

HWY 401 AT EXITS #186-A / #186-B
London ON N6E 1L5
Phone: (519) 680-0900
FAX: (519) 963-0790
Avg price on Expedia is $85/night (CDN)
*free parking, pets are free (with conditions), free wifi, indoor pool, continental breakfast
Note: 15 rooms have been put aside under the name of “SOAR Ringsport”. They will be released if you have not booked by April 16
If you want a nicer option such a Hilton, etc… let me know and I can obtain the information.
NOTE: The Memorial Cup (Crown Jewel of junior hockey) will be in London that weekend, so rooms will be hard to get the later you leave your booking. I strongly encourage you to book early.
NOTE FURTHER: This is a holiday in Ontario… this is a traditional camping weekend, so if you’re planning on camping locally you may have problems finding a spot. I do not anticipate much problem getting a hotel room, but book sooner rather than later to avoid missing either one of the above.
