Excellent place for children. Pool ran out of towels the first night we stayed, had to use our room towels. Found it difficult to get new towels for room. Otherwise amazing experience

My perfect stay
This stay and our stay about 2 weeks ago were almost perfect. We had king suites. We ordered food from the restaurant. We used the pool, slide and hot tub. Everything was perfect. The only problem we had was a hole in the carpet near the sink. I would not change a thing about this stay and will go back when I visit family again.

What a Great Stay I had at the Lamplighter Inn
This is my favorite Best Western hotel, my husband before he passed away always booked this hotel. He felt like he was in Florida, my daughter and her 4 children live in London Ontario so when I come to London to see them I always book the The Best Western lamplighter and book either room 217 or 219 in honor of my husband. My grandchildren came to visit me and they love your pool, so warm and lots of swimming space. I was dissapointed the waterslide wasn't open this time. But next time I hope it will be open for them to use.

Bit noisy and busy - but that’s Christmas
Check in staff clearly disapproved of “third party bookings” such as Hotels.com. We had asked for connecting rooms. They gave us rooms in two different buildings. The manager was able to fix after 15 minutes or so. Walls were very thin- much pounding of little feet and screams of joy into the night. Beds were hard, but pillows great: two thicknesses. The pool was busy, but it was lovely to have a swim. Hot tub was full of small children - some in their swimming diapers.

Great pool, but…
This hotel has a fantastic pool and water slide but the rooms and gathering spaces are tired and in need of updating. Eg. New carpet and paint.

Sold choice for a quick getaway.
Room was as expected, nothing fancy but comfortable. The shower could have a better flow, and the plug in the tub did not work well. The restaurant was understaffed and this became an issue as the two children were hungry and breakfast took about an hour to arrive. The available staff were trying their best. The pool temp was a bit lower then I liked, but the hot tub was perfect.

Min tropical resort
The resort atruim is gorgeous complete with pool and water slide. The pool is warm and clean. Water slide was fast but not too big. Definitely enjoyable for all abilities and ages .
The hotel atmosphere does great job at making feel like you are not in the city . Plenty of amenities complete with great restaurant and lots of shopping near by
Please note the water slide is open Friday - Sunday
which was disappointing as our days staying it was not open the whole time.
