Casual Hotels
Kick back in scenic and comfortable hotels set at the doorstep of all your Backroads activities. Forego elaborate amenities for the splendor of epic locales. Whether you’re in a Canadian lodge with glorious views or a historic Tuscan abode, you’ll find that we always uncover the ideal places to relax and absorb the region’s spirit.
Casual Plus: Our guests tell us these hotels are a step above. They’re not quite Premiere but getting close.

HANDPICKED PROPERTIES
Our Casual hotels are ideal places to relax after a day of active exploring. While they are by definition comfortably informal, they must meet a rigorous list of criteria set by the very demanding Backroads team to ensure the comfort of our guests.

EAT LIKE A LOCAL
Easy conversation, welcoming hosts, delicious food with a local spin—the best meals are the ones you don't want to end. Your host might be a young local chef one day or a nonna welcoming you to her farmhouse the next.

Backroads was an amazing experience. Our trip far exceeded our expectations—and was literally, the trip of a lifetime.
As a first time Backroads guest I wasn’t sure what to expect from this casual trip. I’ve always been an independent traveler and was apprehensive about the group travel experience. Backroads, you knocked it out of the park! I will definitely be a repeat customer.
