Immerse yourself in the historic charm of The Walper Hotel. This iconic 1893 landmark is the epicentre of one of Kitchener, Ontario’s oldest neighbourhoods, now a hub of vibrant growth, partly due to the buzzing tech scene of the Waterloo-Toronto Tech Corridor.
Journey along King & Queen streets to explore dozens of independent, locally-owned shops, including coffee bistros, restaurants & pubs, art galleries & museums or venture just steps from the hotel to Kitchener-Waterloo's urban nature getaway, Victoria Park.
You’ll be captivated by this Kitchener-Waterloo hotel's amazing past, and charmed by its contemporary flare. From Eleanor Roosevelt’s preferred breakfast location on the interior terrace to Lennox Lewis’ boxing match in the Crystal Ballroom, every nook and cranny in this Kitchener-Waterloo hotel has a story to tell.

The Pocket Room
These rooms aren’t pocket-sized, but they offer the same serene setting as some of our favourite parks. The perfect urban getaway, pocket rooms are positioned in the quietest locations throughout the building with views onto our internal courtyards and lane. Pocket rooms are available with one queen, one king, or two queen beds. This room type includes our accessibility rooms.
The Cityside King
These rooms are located along the King and Queen Street sides of The Walper Hotel and are perfect for soaking in the scene starting with unrivaled views of the Kitchener cityscape. Cityside Kings are aptly named as all the rooms in this collection have one amazingly comfortable king bed.
The Urban Suites
Each of these suites are unique, but all of them ensure you’ll be more than comfortable with additional seating room and an expanded workspace. Our urban suites are available with one queen, one king, or two queen beds.
