St. Lawrence College Residence

We know a lot of you are spending a lot of money to get to the Worlds, so we want to help keep your costs as low as possible. As we mentioned before, Kingston is a huge university town, so one benefit is the availability of cheap rooms at the local residences.

Probably your best bet for where to stay is St. Lawrence College, as it is a five-minute walk to Portsmouth Harbour. You can book a single room for CDN $54.50 per night, or a double room for $68.00. It has:

- Lots of free parking
- A kitchenette (small fridge/stove)
- Private bathroom
- A cafeteria nearby

This makes it great for families or individuals.

Because it's so popular with CORK competitors, the St. Lawrence Residence will book up fast (they start to get inquiries in March). If you are interested, BOOK AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. You can book via email (write to Lana Campbell: lcampbell @sl.on.ca (remove the space in front of the @)), or give them a call: 613-544-6600 x4999. You will need a credit card.

The address of the residence is: 23 Country Club Drive, Kingston, Ontario, Canada, K7M 9A4. The St. Lawrence Residence has been added to the customized map, HERE. If you click HERE you can find a virtual tour of the rooms.
