Mississauga Hotels With a Hot Tub or Sauna
Mississauga has eleven hotels with a hot tub or a sauna, and almost all of them sit in the airport belt around Toronto Pearson, along Dixie Road, Airport Road and the Airport Corporate Centre. Ten have a hot tub, usually beside an indoor pool, which is what you want after a long flight or a January day on Highway 401. Only a handful add a sauna: the Best Western Plus Toronto Airport Hotel, the DoubleTree by Hilton Toronto Airport West, the Sheraton Gateway inside Terminal 3 and the Glenerin Inn, a 1927 manor where some suites have their own whirlpool tub. The eleven carry 11,347 guest reviews, with a weighted average score of 8.34 out of 10.
Mississauga sprawls west of Toronto and wrapped around Pearson airport, with business parks, highways 401, 403 and 427, and the Lake Ontario waterfront at Port Credit to the south. Most of its hotels serve flights and offices, which is why indoor pools and hot tubs are the norm rather than the exception.
Which hotel for your kind of soak
I sorted these hotels by what the hot tub or sauna is for: a soak between two flights, a warm-up after a cold drive, or an evening where the tub is the point of the stay. In Mississauga that splits cleanly into the airport hotels and one country-house inn.
The Sheraton Gateway Hotel is the only one you can reach on foot from arrivals: it connects directly to Terminal 3, with the Link Train to Terminal 1, where the UP Express leaves for Union Station. Listings describe a heated indoor pool, a whirlpool, a steam room and saunas next to the fitness centre. It scores 8.7 from 2,016 reviews. On a long layover, that is the place where a sauna fits between two flights without a shuttle, a taxi or the 401 at rush hour. Allow time to clear security again before the next flight.
The Best Western Plus Toronto Airport Hotel, at 5825 Dixie Road, scores 8.0 from 2,506 reviews, the most of the eleven. Best Western lists its heated indoor pool and its hot tub with the same hours, 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., and booking sites add a sauna. Those hours matter if you land late: a soak after 10:30 p.m. is off the table. The hotel runs complimentary airport transfers, about 8 km from Pearson, so you can be in the water within the hour after landing on an early-evening flight.
The Glenerin Inn is the exception, and the only hotel here where the hot tub can be in your room. Built as a manor in 1927 and renovated in 2012, it has around thirty individually designed rooms in the mansion and the carriage house, and some suites have a whirlpool tub and a fireplace. The inn's spa adds a sauna, a hot tub and massage. It scores 8.2 from 153 reviews. If your search is for jacuzzi suites in Mississauga, this is where I would look first, and ask for a whirlpool suite by name.
Most of the rest pair a hot tub with an indoor pool and a kitchen or kitchenette, which suits a longer stay. The Residence Inn Mississauga-Airport Corporate Centre West has the best score of the airport group, 8.9 from 349 reviews. The Sandman Signature Mississauga has an indoor saltwater pool, a hot tub and a 24-hour airport shuttle. The Cambridge Suites adds a tennis court and an outdoor play area. None of these lists a sauna, so if you want dry heat after a cold day, stick to the four hotels named above.
A traveler's takeFor one night between flights I would book the Sheraton Gateway and use the sauna straight off the plane, because nothing beats walking from Terminal 3 to a steam room. For a romantic night with a jacuzzi, I would skip the airport strip entirely and reserve a whirlpool suite at the Glenerin Inn. If I were landing after 10 p.m. and wanted a hot tub, I would not count on the Best Western Plus, whose posted hours end at 10:30 p.m.; the Residence Inn, with the best score here, would be my choice for a week of work.

4.4Sheraton Gateway Hotel in Toronto International Airport
Hot Tub & Sauna · 2016 reviewsDirect airport access with an indoor pool and convenient flight services
Why guests love itFor families facing an early flight, few hotels in Canada are easier than this one. Rooms sit inside Pearson itself, with a direct walkway to Terminal 3 and a short Link Train ride to Terminal 1, so there is no shuttle to catch with sleepy children. Boarding passes can be printed in the lobby the night before. The indoor pool gives restless kids an hour of fun after a long journey, and the restaurant keeps dinner simple without leaving the building.

An on-site restaurant, a fitness room and a pet-friendly policy round it off, with Toronto Pearson about 5 km away.

4.2Cambridge Suites Mississauga

Why guests love itCambridge Suites Mississauga has more for children than most suburban hotels: an outdoor play area, an indoor pool, a hot tub and even a tennis court. Family rooms come with kitchenettes and private bathrooms, which helps with meals and bedtime routines on a longer stay. Toronto Pearson International Airport is 15 km away, making it a reasonable base for the first or last nights of a family trip to Ontario.
4.1Courtyard by Marriott Toronto Mississauga/Meadowvale
Hot Tub & Sauna · 218 reviewsNewly renovated hotel with indoor pool, hot tub, and business amenities
Why guests love itThe indoor pool with a hot tub is the main draw of this renovated Courtyard in Mississauga for families, and it works whatever the season. Rooms have free WiFi and a refrigerator, handy for snacks and drinks, and the on-site bistro saves a drive at dinner. Toronto Pearson is 21 km away, so it can suit an early flight, but I would not pick it for sightseeing in downtown Toronto without a car.
4.1Hilton Garden Inn Toronto/Mississauga
Hot Tub & Sauna · 119 reviewsComfortable stays near Highway 401 with an indoor pool and hot tub
Why guests love itQuick access to Highway 401 makes the Hilton Garden Inn Toronto/Mississauga a practical choice for families driving to Toronto attractions for the day.

4.1DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Toronto Airport West

The hot tub, sauna, spa area and fitness centre make a layover more pleasant for children and adults alike. Pets are welcome, and Highway 401 is close.
4.1The Glenerin Inn
Hot Tub & Sauna · 153 reviewsComfortable family rooms with spa facilities and a sun terrace
Why guests love itThe Glenerin Inn in Mississauga offers family rooms with air-conditioning and free WiFi, and its family-friendly restaurant makes dinner with children straightforward. A sun terrace adds outdoor space, while the spa facilities, including a hot tub and sauna, are better suited to parents taking a turn. It is near Toronto Pearson International Airport, so I would consider it for a family night around a flight rather than for sightseeing in Toronto.
4.0Best Western Plus Toronto Airport Hotel
Hot Tub & Sauna · 2506 reviewsAirport convenience with an indoor pool, hot tub, and on-site dining
Why guests love itBest Western Plus Toronto Airport Hotel is 8 km from Toronto Pearson and offers complimentary airport transfers, which I would point out to families juggling children and suitcases.

An on-site restaurant covers dinner, and car rental services are available at the hotel, practical if you are picking up a vehicle for a road trip around Ontario.
Local tips
- 1Ask for a whirlpool suite by name at the Glenerin Inn: only some of its rooms in the mansion and carriage house have one.
- 2Land late? The Best Western Plus Toronto Airport Hotel lists its pool and hot tub as open from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
- 3On a layover, walk from Terminal 3 to the Sheraton Gateway rather than taking a shuttle; from Terminal 1, ride the Link Train across.
- 4Choose the Sandman Signature for a saltwater pool: it is the only one of the eleven that lists an indoor saltwater pool with its hot tub.
- 5If you want a sauna, not just a hot tub, book one of the four that have both: the Sheraton Gateway, Best Western Plus, DoubleTree or the Glenerin Inn.
- 6Heading downtown after a soak? From Terminal 1, the UP Express runs to Union Station, so you skip the 401 and 427 traffic.
- 7Pick a suite hotel with a kitchen, such as the Residence Inn or Homewood Suites, for a longer stay where the hot tub becomes a nightly routine.
- 8Pack swimwear even in winter: every hot tub on this list is indoors, and they are most worth it in the Ontario cold from December to March.
