Delta Hotel Winnipeg
Class of note: Hotel
Name: Delta Hotel Winnipeg
Recommendation: Highly Recommend
Date visited: Not specified
Note: The ‘IT hotel’ and best hotel in Winnipeg, but prices are getting out of control, sometimes reaching around $600 per night. You will run into other IT vendors staying here. It’s right next door to the conference center for events like the WCISC. Visiting NHL hockey teams also stay here when in town.
