Medicine Hat, known as the Gas City, is one of Alberta's most important industrial centres. With a thriving oil and gas sector, growing construction industry, and expanding healthcare system, thousands of workers travel to Medicine Hat each year for extended assignments.
Finding affordable, comfortable accommodation for a week or longer can be challenging — but it doesn't have to be. Our three Wyndham family hotels offer weekly rates starting from just $65+tax per night, which works out to as little as $455 per week. That includes free breakfast every morning, free WiFi, and free parking.
For oil and gas workers, the location of our hotels is ideal. All three properties are situated along or near the Trans-Canada Highway, providing easy access to work sites throughout southeastern Alberta and southwestern Saskatchewan. After a long shift, you can unwind in the pool, grab a meal at the on-site restaurant, or cook in your kitchenette suite.
Medicine Hat's strategic location along the Trans-Canada Highway makes it an ideal hub for professionals traveling across Alberta and Saskatchewan. Whether you are hauling freight, managing regional sales, or coordinating logistics, having a comfortable base is essential. Our properties offer easy access to major routes, ensuring you spend less time navigating traffic and more time resting. Plus, with ample parking for oversized vehicles and equipment, you never have to worry about finding a safe spot for your work truck at the end of a long day.
For those relocating to the area, finding temporary housing can be a stressful endeavor. Instead of committing to a long-term lease before getting to know the city, consider the flexibility of an extended stay. Our short-term rental options provide the perfect bridge between your arrival and finding a permanent home. You can explore different neighborhoods, understand your commute, and settle into your new role without the immediate pressure of furnishing an apartment or setting up utilities.
The local economy is driven by a diverse range of sectors, including agriculture, manufacturing, and renewable energy. As these industries continue to grow, we see a steady influx of specialized contractors and consultants. We understand that working away from home requires more than just a bed; it requires a space where you can unwind and prepare for the next day. That is why our rooms are designed with productivity and relaxation in mind, featuring dedicated workspaces and high-speed internet to keep you connected with your team and family.
When you are working long hours, convenience is key. You do not want to spend your limited free time searching for basic necessities. Fortunately, our hotels are situated near essential services, grocery stores, and pharmacies. If you prefer not to cook, there are plenty of excellent dining options nearby. You can easily find restaurants near our hotels that cater to various tastes and dietary requirements, offering everything from quick bites to hearty, sit-down meals after a demanding shift.
Winter in Southern Alberta presents its own set of challenges for outdoor and industrial workers. The dropping temperatures and unpredictable weather mean that having a warm, reliable place to return to is non-negotiable. We ensure our heating systems are top-notch and our hot water is always ready for a soothing shower. Additionally, our staff is well-versed in local weather patterns and can provide timely advice on road conditions, helping you plan your daily commute safely during the colder months.
Managing expenses is a significant part of any corporate travel or temporary work assignment. We strive to provide exceptional value without compromising on quality or comfort. By choosing our accommodations, you benefit from transparent pricing and comprehensive amenities. If you are coordinating travel for a larger crew, we highly recommend exploring our group booking options. This not only simplifies the administrative process but also ensures your entire team stays together, fostering better communication and camaraderie off the job site.
Finally, maintaining a healthy work-life balance is crucial, even when you are on the road. Medicine Hat boasts an extensive trail system, beautiful parks, and a vibrant arts scene. Taking time to explore the city can significantly improve your overall well-being and job performance. Whether it is a morning jog along the South Saskatchewan River or a weekend visit to the historic Clay District, we encourage our guests to discover the things to do in Medicine Hat and make the most of their time in our welcoming community.
Construction crews appreciate our ability to accommodate groups. We can block multiple rooms for your team, and our free parking handles work trucks and equipment trailers. The early breakfast means your crew can fuel up before heading to site.
Healthcare professionals on assignment at Medicine Hat Regional Hospital find our hotels to be a quiet, comfortable home base. The kitchenette suites at Ramada and Wyndham Garden are particularly popular with nurses and doctors who prefer to prepare their own meals.
Beyond work, Medicine Hat has plenty to offer. The city is home to the world's tallest teepee (Saamis Teepee), the historic Medalta pottery district, beautiful river valley trails, and a surprisingly vibrant restaurant scene. The Medicine Hat Mall and downtown shopping district are both within a short drive of all three hotels.
When you are away from home for an extended period, having the right amenities makes all the difference in your daily routine. Our properties are designed with the long-term worker in mind, offering convenient on-site guest laundry facilities and fitness centers to help you maintain your lifestyle while on the road. For those who prefer to cook their own meals after a long shift, we highly recommend exploring our kitchenette suites, which provide the perfect space to prepare your favorite dishes and save on dining out expenses.
Furthermore, if you are coordinating travel for an entire crew, managing accommodations can often become a complex task. We are here to simplify that process by offering dedicated support for team reservations and ensuring everyone is comfortable. By taking advantage of our group rewards program, your company can earn valuable perks and streamline the billing process even further. We pride ourselves on being your home away from home in Medicine Hat, and our dedicated staff is always ready to assist with any special requests your team might have.
When planning your extended stay, here are some tips: Book your weekly rate by calling the hotel directly — you'll often get a better deal than online. Ask about kitchenette availability if you want to cook. And don't forget to sign up for Wyndham Rewards to earn points on every stay.
