Scarborough Hotels: Where to Stay in Ontario

Scarborough is the eastern district of Toronto, and the hotels in Scarborough Ontario cluster in three places. One group sits near Scarborough Town Centre and Highway 401.

Hotels Near Scarborough Attractions

Your choice of hotel depends on the sights on your list. Use the notes below to match a property to a plan.

Hotels Near Scarborough Bluffs and Bluffers Park

The Scarborough Bluffs are limestone cliffs stretching about 15 kilometers along Lake Ontario, with 11 parks along the shore. Bluffers Park is the best known section, with a sandy beach and views of the cliffs. The Super 8 and the Comfort Inn listing on Kingston Road sit closest to the lake, according to their own descriptions.

Check the City of Toronto website for current park conditions and any closures before you go.

Hotels Near the Toronto Zoo

The Toronto Zoo stands at 2000 Meadowvale Road, Toronto, ON M1B 5K7. The zoo reports more than 3,000 animals from over 300 species, about ten kilometers of walking trails, and a location inside Rouge National Urban Park. Highway 401 reaches the zoo at Exit 389 on Meadowvale Road.

Zoo hours change by season. Through October 12, the zoo opens at 9:30 AM, closes at 6:00 PM on weekends and holidays, and closes at 4:30 PM on weekdays. From October 13 to March 12, 2027, the zoo opens daily from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM, and last admission comes one hour before closing. Check the zoo site for changes before your visit.

Several hotel pages name the zoo as a nearby sight, including the Super 8, the Best Western, and the Holiday Inn Express. Expedia places the Best Western about 7.4 miles from the zoo.

Hotels Near Guild Park and Gardens

Guild Park and Gardens sits at 201 Guildwood Parkway on top of the Bluffs. The 50-acre park displays building fragments saved from more than 60 demolished Toronto buildings. The park also holds an outdoor Greek Theatre, the Osterhout log cabin, and viewing trails along the cliff. Rosa and Spencer Clark bought the land in 1932 and made an artist colony there. Public ownership began in 1978.

We did not find a sourced distance from any hotel to the park. Use a map app to check your own route.

Hotels Near Rouge National Urban Park

Rouge National Urban Park is Canada’s first national urban park. The park holds farms, marshes, a beach, Carolinian forest, and Indigenous sites dating back about 10,000 years. The Toronto Zoo sits inside the park, so the zoo hotels above also work for a Rouge trip. Check Parks Canada for trailhead access and closures before you go.

Old Scarborough Hotel Listings We Could Not Confirm

The previous version of this guide listed five properties. We dropped three of them.

We found no confirmed Hilton Toronto Scarborough hotel. We found no Best Western Plus Rouge Hill Road Hotel in the sources we checked. The Best Western property we could confirm in Scarborough is the Executive Inn on Estate Drive. A Holiday Inn Toronto East on Bloor Street did not appear in any Scarborough listing we found. The Holiday Inn Express on Estate Drive is the confirmed Holiday Inn property in the district.

The old Super 8 and Comfort Inn entries match real addresses on Kingston Road, so we kept them with updated names. Treat any booking listing for a dropped name as stale until the hotel confirms the address by phone.

How to Choose Among Scarborough Hotels and Motels

Families do best at Delta Hotels Toronto East. The pool with the waterslide and the two restaurants keep children busy.

Budget travelers should call the Super 8 first. The light breakfast and the lake access suit short stays.

Pet owners should start with Delta, which accepts pets under listed weight limits. The Best Western and the Holiday Inn Express list no pets.

Business travelers should look at the two Estate Drive hotels. Both list meeting space or a business center, and both sit near Highway 401.

Visitors with a car can use any hotel on this list. Visitors without a car should favor Estate Drive for the McCowan transit station. Check TTC and GO Transit maps for current routes.

Before you pay, confirm the property name on the building, the cancellation policy, parking terms, breakfast hours, and late arrival rules. Ask for the total with taxes and fees. Compare the total on two booking sites and by phone.
