Hotel Recommendations:

Restaurant Recommendations:

Hunter and Co: Delicious small plates that are great for sharing.

Church Key Bistro-Pub: Fine gastro-pub fare.

Craft Farmacy: Big portions and great sharing platters.

Thaifoon: Excellent Thai food (note the downtown location is closer to the hotels than the Masonville location).

Pub Milos: Best beer selection in London, they also have a solid food menu.

Toboggan Brewing Co.: Large and lively venue for when you can't get a table elsewhere.

 

Travel Recommendations:

For those flying in from other parts of Canada, we recommend flying into Toronto and then either renting a car for the 2-hour drive to London or taking the Robert Q Airbus service from Toronto's Pearson Airport to downtown London. Alternatively, London has an airport, and connecting flights are available, usually via Calgary and Toronto.

For anyone travelling in from the US, flying into Detroit and either renting a car or taking the Robert Q Airbus service into London is often a better option than flying through Toronto.
