Hotels With Hot Tubs and Saunas in Medicine Hat

Eight hotels in Medicine Hat carry the hot tub and sauna tag, and six of them back it up in their listings. Hot tubs appear at the Best Western Premier Executive Residency, Hampton Inn & Suites, Days Inn by Wyndham, Comfort Inn & Suites and Wyndham Garden, while saunas are rarer: only the Best Western Premier, which adds a steam room, and the Econo Lodge Inn & Suites on Highway 1 list one. Clarion Pointe and Holiday Inn Express & Suites carry the tag without mentioning either. After a cold prairie day by the South Saskatchewan River, that difference is worth checking before you book.

Medicine Hat sits on the South Saskatchewan River in southeast Alberta, with dry, sunny summers and cold winters that make a hot tub welcome for much of the year. Its hotels line the Trans-Canada Highway near Medicine Hat Mall, a short drive from the Saamis Tepee and Strathcona Island Park, so a warm soak usually follows a day out in town.

Hot Tub, Sauna or Both

In Medicine Hat, a warm soak is a hotel amenity rather than a spa visit, so I sort these hotels by what they actually list. The Best Western Premier is the only one with a hot tub, a sauna and a steam room together; Hampton Inn & Suites pairs its hot tub with a saltwater pool; the Econo Lodge has a sauna but no hot tub listed. Ratings range from 7.1 to 9.2, which matters as much as the water.

The Best Western Premier Executive Residency Medicine Hat is the only hotel here with a full heat circuit: a sauna, a steam room and a hot tub around an indoor pool, plus an outdoor fireplace terrace for the evening. Family rooms include bathrobes, a practical detail when the sauna is down the hall. It is also the best-rated hotel on the list at 9.2 from 217 reviews. It sits about 5 miles from Medicine Hat Airport, a short drive from the Saamis Tepee, and I would choose it first for a stay built around warming up after a winter day outdoors.

Hampton Inn & Suites Medicine Hat, rated 8.9 from 275 reviews, pairs a hot tub with a saltwater indoor pool, a fitness center and a sun terrace, a good routine of laps followed by a soak. Days Inn by Wyndham Medicine Hat, rated 8.7 from 566 reviews, has a hot tub and an indoor pool, and some rooms add a fireplace, which I find the most relaxing combination on a cold night. Neither hotel lists a sauna. Hampton Inn sits about 5.5 miles from Medicine Hat Airport and Days Inn about 4 miles, both along the city's highway corridor.

Comfort Inn & Suites Medicine Hat Shopping Centre, rated 8.2 from 561 reviews, has a hot tub, an indoor pool and a fitness center, with express check-in and check-out for a late arrival; note that its free private parking is off site. Wyndham Garden Medicine Hat Conference Center, rated 7.1 from 336 reviews, has a hot tub, an indoor pool and a rooftop pool, plus a family-friendly Indian restaurant on a quiet street. Both are solid for a soak after a long drive on the Trans-Canada Highway, though Wyndham Garden has the lowest rating of the group.

The Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Medicine Hat Highway 1 is the only other hotel with a sauna, alongside a rooftop pool, an indoor pool and a free airport shuttle; it lists no hot tub, and its rating is 7.3 from 163 reviews. Two tagged hotels do not support the label in their listings. Clarion Pointe Medicine Hat Saamis Tepee mentions an indoor pool and a casino but no hot tub or sauna, and Holiday Inn Express & Suites mentions an indoor pool with a two-story waterslide but neither feature. If a soak is the point of the stay, I would book one of the first six.

A traveler's take

For a proper warm-up, I recommend the Best Western Premier Executive Residency Medicine Hat, rated 9.2, the only hotel here with a sauna, a steam room and a hot tub. If you prefer swimming, I would choose Hampton Inn & Suites, whose hot tub sits next to a saltwater indoor pool about 5.5 miles from Medicine Hat Airport.

A sauna and steam room built for a prairie winter

Why guests love it

A sauna, a steam room, an indoor pool and a hot tub give the Best Western Premier Executive Residency more to do on a cold evening than most Medicine Hat hotels. The outdoor fireplace terrace is a pleasant extra for adults, family rooms have air conditioning and bathrobes, and private parking is free. It holds 9.2 from 217 reviews. I would book it when the stay lasts several nights and comfort matters.

A hot tub and sun terrace give parents a break, and the fitness center covers a morning workout. Rooms are air-conditioned with private bathrooms and a tea and coffee maker. Free private parking suits families on a road trip, and the airport is about 5.5 miles away. I would book it as a reliable family stop.

Why guests love it

Days Inn by Wyndham Medicine Hat gives families more than a highway stopover usually does: an indoor pool and hot tub, and rooms with fireplaces, sofa beds and a PS4, which older children will appreciate. The daily continental buffet includes gluten-free options, a real help for families with dietary needs. Free WiFi and parking cover the practical side, and the airport is about 4 miles away. Rated 8.7 across 566 reviews, I would book it for a two-night family stop.

A two-story waterslide pool minutes from the casino

Why guests love it

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Medicine Hat is built around one thing children remember: an indoor pool with a two-story waterslide. It is a 4-star hotel on TransCanada Highway 1, rated 8.1 across 232 reviews, so it suits families crossing the prairies by car. Suites have a microwave, fridge and coffee kit for easy snacks and breakfasts. The Saamis Teepee is 2.8 miles away for a short outing. I would book it as a family road-trip stop where the pool does the entertaining.

Why guests love it

Econo Lodge Inn & Suites Medicine Hat is a 2-star stop on Highway 1, rated 7.3 across 163 reviews, with more for children than the price tier suggests: an indoor pool, a rooftop pool and a game room. Family rooms include a kitchenette with a refrigerator and microwave, handy for simple meals, and parents can use the sauna. A free airport shuttle covers the 2 miles to Medicine Hat Airport. I would book it as a budget family stop on a cross-prairie drive.

An on-site casino beside the Saamis Tepee landmark

Why guests love it

Clarion Pointe Medicine Hat is a 3-star hotel about 2 miles from the airport, rated 7.2 across 369 reviews. Families will use the indoor swimming pool and the family-friendly restaurant, which serves Indian, American and Asian dishes, enough variety for most children. Family rooms have private entrances, practical when unloading the car, and free WiFi. The on-site casino is for the adults and sits apart from the family side. I would book it for a short stop rather than a long stay.

A rooftop pool over a conference-centre floor plan

Why guests love it

Wyndham Garden Medicine Hat Conference Center gives families two pools, a rooftop one and an indoor one, plus a hot tub and a fitness center. The family-friendly restaurant serves Indian cuisine with vegetarian and dairy-free options, and the quiet street helps children sleep. Medicine Hat Airport is about 2 miles away. A 7.1 rating from 336 reviews suggests some unevenness, so I would see it as a pool-focused short stay.
