Accommodation
The majority of accommodation suitable for travellers is found in the south and central portion of the province, especially in Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, Prince Albert, Swift Current, Weyburn, Melfort and the Battlefords. The parklands in the northern part of the province have mainly camping-style accommodation as well as northern lodges and cabins, some with all the modern facilities. ‘Houseboat charters’ on the lakes are a special feature of Saskatchewan. For further information on hotels in Saskatchewan, contact the Hotels Association of Saskatchewan, 1054 Winnipeg Street, Regina, Saskatchewan S4R 8P8 (tel: (306) 522 1664; fax: (306) 525 1944; e-mail: hotels.assoc@sk.sympatico.ca; website: www.hotelsofsask.com). Accommodation reservations can be made through Tourism Sakatchewan (see Contact Addresses section).
The Saskatchewan Accommodation, Resort and Campground Guide is available through Tourism Saskatchewan and is a comprehensive directory of hotels/motels, parks, campgrounds, lakeside accommodation and vacation farms that are available throughout the province.
