Ontario, CA Discount Hotels

The city of Ontario, California, has always been home to a pioneering and entrepreneurial spirit. More than a century ago, Canadians George and William Chaffey purchased 6,218 acres for a “model colony,” featuring a novel irrigation system, abundant electricity and a beautiful parkway designed to rival the greatest streets in the world. Their plan has come to fruition.  Ontario has developed into a model city where commerce and community work hand in hand.

The orchards and citrus packing plants have given way to new landmarks such as Ontario Mills, the Ontario Convention Center, and Ontario International Airport. Hundreds of new businesses have been attracted to the city because of its superior location, transportation, climate, skilled workforce and other quality-of-life advantages. More than a geographic gateway to Southern California, Ontario has become a gateway to growth and progress for the over 150,000 residents who live there and is a great, centrally located destination.

Ontario’s location allows for easy accessibility via major freeways and more than 100 daily flights from major U.S. cities to Ontario International Airport. Ontario is just minutes from all that Southern California has to offer: Ontario Mills Mall, Hollywood, Disneyland, Pacific beaches, desert and mountain resorts. Today Ontario continues to lead the Inland Empire region of Southern California into the 21st century as one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the nation; yet, it retains a sense of tradition and small town charm.

Ontario’s sun belt position assures mild weather and 312 days of sunshine annually. The superb weather allows visitors and residents alike to enjoy Ontario’s many parks as well as nearby Orange County and San Diego attractions including Knott’s Berry Farm and Sea World.  For family fun, be sure to visit Scandia Amusement Park. This fun filled park is known around town as the undisputed leader in safe, clean, family fun and offers 25 rides and attractions including go-carts, bumper boats, two miniature golf courses, batting cages and an arcade. It also features the “Scandia Screamer,” the Inland Empire’s tallest roller coaster.

Of course, professional sports are available nearby.  Choose from baseball, football, basketball, hockey, and more.  The choice is yours and available throughout the year.

For participatory relaxation and fun, Ontario has numerous options. The Empire Lakes Golf Course,  designed by Arnold Palmer,  will challenge even the most experienced golfer. Close to the San Bernardino Mountains, visitors can also enjoy world-class skiing at Big Bear resorts during the winter months.

For wine aficionados, sampling California’s finest wines has never been easier. Ontario boasts three wineries in its vicinity: Galleano Winery, Inc., Joseph Filippi Winery and Vineyards, and San Antonio Winery.  Each winery has its own tasting rooms and conducts facility tours.

Whether looking for a quick bite or a sit-down gourmet meal, guests are served in style at the many fine restaurants in and around Ontario.

Whether you are in Southern California for business or pleasure, Ontario offers it all!  Come play and stay as long as you like!
