I was hoping the phone number was still the same, but it’s not 🙂
A neat view of the old Neon Sign, long gone. The hotel renovated/expanded in the early 1990’s, maybe 1993-ish?
It’s still around and still open. I can’t think of a tougher business that to be an independent Hotel/Motel operator. I have a listing for the Cadillac Motel in the 1958 phone book, so the business has been around at least 53 years. It has to be the oldest Hotel business in Windsor still in operation…

Read Chuck Pikes entry above mine,
I think they have a lot of corporate clients. I know that Loblaws (Zehrs, Superstore) use them for all their out of town employees, sales reps, managers, etc. As well, lots of out of town contractors stay there also.
I can't believe this picture is on this site. I just saw it now. I wonder if they have any old records of visitors from 42 years ago. I stayed here with my first husband on august 8 1970.This was such a nice clean place at that time. It looks even nicer now. I drive by every so often when I'm over that way. Too bad I can't remember the room # Thanks for the picture.
i have short stayed here a few times
I stayed here, in a suite for a night on my birthday, with my girlfriend back in 2007. It wasn't anything special. Actually, it seemed a little on the dingy side. The toiled clogged, and we found some ants in the morning.
