Wallaceburg is an unincorporated community in the municipality of Chatham-Kent in Southern Ontario, Canada.

The Retro Suites Hotel in Chatham, Ontario

I spent two nights at the Retro Suites Hotel during my visit to Chatham, Ontario and the surrounding area.

The Retro Suites Hotel is one of the finest boutique hotels in Southern Ontario and it definitely offers a unique experience when it comes to accommodation.

There are a variety of different rooms to choose from depending on the style and theme that you want and the entire interior of the hotel is tastefully decorated with artwork, intricately crafted displays, and a wide range of different exhibits.

No two rooms are the same so that you know you're getting a completely unique experience when you visit the Retro Suites Hotel.

The location is great for exploring the surrounding area, such as checking out some of the different attractions along the historic Underground Railway or heading on a day trip to Point Pelee.

There's a restaurant on site if you're looking for something to eat and the prime location right in downtown Chatham means you can easily walk to one of the nearby restaurants or small shops.

On the property there's also free parking so you don't have to worry about where you're going to keep your car overnight.
