A list of supported hotels is shown below for both Windsor and Leamington

NEW for 2026! What happens if you choose a hotel not our “supported” list?

We strongly advise that you book supported hotels on the list below. There is ample supported accommodations in Windsor and Leamington so it should not be necessary to book alternate locations that we cannot practically support. If you choose a hotel off this list or an AirBnB, it is your responsibility to pick up and drop off your luggage from a central location that will be determined.
