  • This tight-knit, friendly community is ideal for seniors who want a home in Hamilton. Situated close to the highway and to downtown, there's just enough shopping and liveliness in the area. Residents live happily and healthily. Over the years, we've met or heard of a number of residents who have been here for several years. That tells us that they thrive—and they enjoy their lives here. LEV Senior Living has a reputation across the province for providing great care.

  • In the heart of Hamilton there’s a place with heart. Staff and residents together make this an oasis of kindness and care. You see instances of this around the community as soon as you walk through. People are gathered around a table in the lounge, and other groups are found throughout the community, some sitting and chatting, others perhaps on their way out to do something together. It’s also strikingly diverse.
  • From the first day mom arrived she was made to feel extremely welcome. There is such a warm, friendl

  • There are many great things to say about St. Elizabeth Village, but one unique aspect of this community is residents' ability to leverage the market value of the home they purchase, through the community's life lease program. Given that real estate values rise consistently in Hamilton (especially on the mountain) this gives you the best of both worlds: the security and freedom of 55 plus living, along with the equity you'll build up from investing in your home here.
  • We were able to make it our home quite painlessly and we were really happy that renovations were i

  • This retirement residence is ideal for Hamilton area seniors who love living well. Aspects that help rejuvenate residents range from fine dining to the swimming pool, and from social activities galore to the up-to-date construction. For all the wonderful features, the happiness of the people here needs to be experienced. The Meadowlands is also wonderfully located, central to the Golden Horseshoe, where family from across the province can easily visit.
  • I meet new people in the hall or in the lounge or wherever you are, and they're all just such good p

  • Wentworth Heights is the perfect fit for Hamilton area seniors who miss the old days when you knew your neighbours and everyone you met had a friendly "Hello." The village concept is truly unique and has to be experienced to be appreciated. Staff and residents love life in the village.
  • [Since moving here in April 2019], our parent's experience has been [nothing but] positive ... The s

  • The Wellington offers a unique combination of affordability and luxury amenities in an established area of Hamilton. We love its holistic approach to senior living, from its pet-friendly policy to the staff, who bring a tell-tale enthusiasm to their work. The combination of independent living with long term care makes it ideal for couples with varying needs to stay together in one community.
  • My Mother lived at the Wellington for [six] years ... Staff were very compassionate and kind towards

  • Tansley Woods is ideal for a variety of people. Older adults who currently live alone love that they can have all their housework and meals taken care of, and can find friends to talk to just outside the door. For seniors who are advancing in age, there are customized levels of care focused exactly on their needs. The community here is warm and inviting.
  • The facility is beautiful. The staff is outstanding. The food is wonderful. There is no better place

  • There’s always a slate of things to do every day, at heritage Place, including card games, yoga, movies, shopping trips, workshops, live music and the list goes on. (Of course, you also have the privacy of your own condo.) The rich social aspect of living here makes it worth moving away from a traditional family home. We see it as an ideal bridge between typical active lifestyle communities and independent living for seniors.
  • My mom has been [here, almost since it opened] ... Both her mental health and her physical health ha

  • The beautiful natural environment around St. Elizabeth Retirement Residence, set in a sprawling 114 acre property, makes this a truly unique senior living experience among Hamilton retirement homes. The entire village is really all about catering to the desires of an older crowd. You’ll find comfort here, along with detail-oriented care provided by staff, and the promotion of a healthy, vibrant lifestyle.
  • Five stars. Amazing residence.

  • If you’re moving to a senior living community, why not make it best in class? That’s what you’ll find at Amica Stoney Creek. This community offers a list of wonderful amenities combined with supportive staff, in a building that’s still very new and comfortably luxurious.

  • Having worked with Parkland for several years now, we’re impressed with their combination of exceptional lifestyle and amenities with a family feeling. With its breadth of lifestyles possible (apartments through memory care), Parkland Ancaster will be another Parkland retirement residence that “has it all” for Hamilton-area seniors.
  • Five stars!
