Great hotel

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Great hotel and the location was awesome! Across from a beautiful park walk and the farmers market plus close to restaurants. Comfy beds, great drinks in the cozy hotel lounge. The front desk staff were great.

Top notch hotel with warm atmosphere

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

The hotel is close to the city core, close to the Prince of Wales museum. Main entrance has huge polar bear display. Staff represent cultural diversity which is very important. Great main restaurant, Trader's Grill, nice bar and wonderful luxurious rooms. We had deluxe king bed room, it was very comfortable, clean and luxurious. Great views on the North side.

Nice hotel, great location

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Stayed there for two nights as part of a trip to a lodge outside of Yellowknife. Room was comfy but nothing special. There was no bottled water or minibar in the room, but there’s a Shoppers Drug Mart just across the street (which we didn’t know at first). Their restaurant and bar was quite good and service was excellent. Their gym was also surprisingly large. Best part was it’s location though - walkable distance from pretty much everything. I would go back if I ever have to be in Yellowknife again!

Only hotel I've ever been in with giant Polar Bear!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Have stayed here a couple times, for work and pleasure. The staff is welcoming and will try and meet any need you may have. Found they were helpful with local knowledge of the area as well. Rooms have all the amenities, close enough to walk downtown, the views of the City are great. Restaurant is a little pricey but the food is fantastic. Have not stayed since they added on and renovated.
