And yes, unless you are in Mississauga, it does take more than one system to get to the hotel.

GO Transit fares are dependent on your age and whether you are buying a single ride ticket, two ride ticket, etc.
TTC is again dependent on age, but cost is $3 for an adult, single ride, but you can obtain a transfer and change buses, so long as you don't go backwards on the route, and only for 2 hours. 5 tokens/tickets for an adult is $12.50.
Mississauga Transit is again $3 a ride (although it seems to be $2.50 now with a PRESTO e-purse), with the ticket valid for 2 hours. 5 tickets is $12.50.
All this information can be found on their websites.
It's deciphering the websites that's the challenge.

What's an e-purse? Is that something only GTA residents would have?

Does the GO train only go West-bound? This schedule seems to suggest so. I guess that's why the trip there is 1 hour and the trip back is 2 hours.

There is no mention of time because depending on what time of day you're using these routes, it could take an hour, it could take up to 3. The websites can estimate the time, but traffic will always change that.
Well, at least the trains aren't effected by that.

And coming from the east doesn't say much. There are many cities east of Mississauga, and depending on where from the east, there could be multiple routes.
I should have just said downtown Toronto. Someone coming from the west or south-west would be coming through Mississauga.
