The Opal's attentive, friendly staff is always available to assist with dining, sightseeing and entertainment recommendations.

With five stories of quiet, well-appointed guest rooms and suites, the Opal is the perfect home-away-from-home for business and leisure travellers. Wake up with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, and then venture down to the breakfast room to enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast featuring signature home-made waffles. When not out sightseeing or meeting colleagues, you can exercise in the on-site gym or relax in the classic lobby. An attentive, courteous staff is always available to make entertainment recommendations or assist guests with special needs. The hotel offers on and off-site parking, complimentary local calls, on-site dining at Mel's Drive-In and delicately appointed guestrooms. Mel's Drive-In is a local favourite restaurant just off the lobby which features "American Food at its Best".
