Saskatoon Hotels With Hot Tubs and Saunas
Saskatoon winters are long and very cold, so a hot tub after a walk along the South Saskatchewan River or a day at the University of Saskatchewan is more than a small extra. Every hotel on this page lists a hot tub, but I should be clear about the other half of the label: only three mention a sauna, the Delta Hotels by Marriott Saskatoon Downtown, the Park Town Hotel and the Home Inn and Suites Saskatoon South. The rest pair the hot tub with an indoor pool, and several add a water slide. Choose the district first: downtown, the airport, the university side or the south end.
Saskatoon straddles the South Saskatchewan River, crossed by a string of bridges that give it the nickname City of Bridges. The Meewasin Valley trails follow both banks, the University of Saskatchewan fills the east side, downtown and Midtown Plaza sit on the west bank, and the airport lies in the north-west of the city.
Hot Tubs by Airport, Campus and South End
A hot tub suits Saskatoon because of the climate: after a cold day on the river trails or a long drive across the prairies, a warm soak is the simplest way to recover. The hotels below are grouped by area so the hot tub comes with the right location for your trip.
Near John G. Diefenbaker International Airport, several hotels make a late arrival easier. The Hampton Inn and Suites by Hilton Saskatoon Airport sits 1 km from the terminal, with an indoor pool, a hot tub, a fitness centre and a complimentary airport shuttle, and it is pet-friendly. The Days Inn by Wyndham Saskatoon is 2 km from the airport, with an indoor pool, a hot tub, family rooms and interconnected options. The Best Western Plus Airport Inn and Suites adds a continental breakfast and a free shuttle, and the Sandman Hotel Saskatoon pairs its pool and jacuzzi with a 24-hour Denny's.
On the university side, the hotels suit visitors to campus or to Griffiths Stadium. The Holiday Inn Express and Suites Saskatoon East - University has an indoor pool, a hot tub and a fitness centre, and guests rate it 8.9. The Best Western Plus East Side, near the University of Saskatchewan, adds a water slide to its pool and hot tub, with a daily breakfast included. The Park Town Hotel, a short drive from the university and Casino Emerald, lists a sauna alongside its indoor pool and hot tub, with several restaurants and a sports bar.
Further south and west, the choice turns on space and breakfast. The Sandman Signature Saskatoon South Hotel offers kitchenettes and sofa beds in some rooms, an indoor pool, a hot tub and a family restaurant. The Home Inn and Suites Saskatoon South has spacious rooms with kitchenettes, spa facilities with a sauna and a daily breakfast, and it welcomes pets. The Best Western Blairmore, 9 km from downtown, has an indoor pool with a waterslide and a hot tub, which makes it a sound pick for families staying on the west side of the city.
Downtown visitors have the strongest all-round option. The Delta Hotels by Marriott Saskatoon Downtown has an indoor pool with a three-storey waterslide, a hot tub and a sauna, plus free secured parking, and it is pet-friendly and family-friendly. The Holiday Inn Express and Suites Saskatoon Centre, near Midtown Plaza and the University of Saskatchewan, adds an indoor pool, a hot tub and spa facilities. From either, the Meewasin trails along the river are an easy walk before a soak. The Comfort Suites rounds out the list with a pool, a hot tub and a continental buffet breakfast.
A traveler's takeFor a winter stay built around warming up I would book the Delta Hotels by Marriott Saskatoon Downtown: a hot tub, a sauna and a three-storey waterslide, a short walk from the river trails. For a late flight into Saskatoon, I recommend the Hampton Inn and Suites Saskatoon Airport, 1 km from the terminal with a free shuttle.
