Multicultural Brampton is home to ornate temples and churches as well as museums, leafy parks and festivals. The city hugs Toronto International Airport on the northwest end with neighboring Mississauga stretching towards Lake Ontario.

Posh is the watchword when describing these comfortable suites – complete with dream-inducing hazy blue feature walls, near downtown Brampton, just under 15 minutes drive from Toronto.

And who wouldn’t want to splash in the indoor salt-water pool with a two-story waterslide? Social spaces range from a living room-style lobby to an all-American restaurant that serves breakfast and dinner – be sure to try the vegan burgers – as well as all-day drinks, from coffee to cocktails.

This sand-colored mid-rise will keep you entertained throughout – from the inviting lobby with palms and pink decor to the rooms with soft beige pepped up by the lobby’s pinkish theme. If you’ve driven – or hired – an electric car, get charging at the station in the car park so you can visit Victoria Park Arena soccer venue, just 2mi (3.2km) away. If you like sports that much, clock up your morning lengths in the indoor pool with a wall of windows flooding the space with light – before idling over a breakfast of buttery pastries in the inviting open-plan restaurant.

Mississauga, a few minutes south of Brampton, is Toronto’s out-of-town central business district: home to Square One shopping mall and the Living Arts Center. It’s a 15-minute free shuttle ride from the airport to this appealing high rise. Interiors are elevated with soothing blues and greys that promote a restful vibe. You’ll relax further in rooms ranging from two queens to a king with a hot tub, as you float in the indoor saltwater pool before settling in for dinner – say, hand-pressed burgers? – served with a smile at Denny’s diner-style restaurant.
