Before finding a permanent residence in Edmonton, you may need help finding temporary accommodations.There are many settlement agencies that can help you find a temporary home prior to choosing a permanent apartment, house or condominium.
Most people on short term visits to Canada will stay in a hotel, a room with a bed and bathroom. Suite hotels are equipped with more amenities, including a kitchen and other rooms. For a less expensive place to stay, motels (short for motor hotel) frequently cost less than hotels, but may be located far from downtown areas.
