There are few hotels in Canada where dramatic location, superb historic architecture, and exceptional hospitality come together so magnificently as the Delta Bessborough. Built in the 1930s to resemble a French château, the towering, turreted hotel dominates the Saskatoon skyline and the parklands along the South Saskatchewan River. A complete renovation of the hotel interior completed in 2003 celebrates the hotel's gracious past while thoroughly updating systems and facilities -- this is one of western Canada's great luxury hotels. Signature Club rooms are large and graciously furnished with feather duvets, handsome furniture, mobile phones, and high-speed Internet access, plus access to a private lounge. Standard rooms are equally large and luxurious, though without the business traveler extras. Be sure to peek inside the hotel's magnificent ballrooms on the third floor, especially the Versailles-like Adam Ballroom. Facilities also include a full health club with a small pool and spa with beauty and fitness treatments. The Samurai Japanese Steakhouse offers delicious tableside Teppanyaki grill preparations.
