This rooms were okay but the building itself left a lot to be desired. No clean towels in room even after asking for them. Breakfast was pretty abysmal. Whoever owns this place needs to do better. Blown out light bulbs in the hallways, door handles missing from doors. Crazy. Won’t stay again.

To find a hotel with good facilities so far up north was a challenge, and im very pleased to have stayed here. I understand running such a business is tough and i see them making improvements.
Overall it was the staff that made this stay absolutely amazing. Checking is in late, helped with our luggage and offered after hours snacks. Ofcourse they know people travel long distances to get to Inuvik, so they made sure our stay was comfortable.
We sure will stay here on our next Arctic trip!

No air conditioning here, which is typical at this latitude, I understand. However, they have these mobile floor AC units in the room that are totally useless. They make a lot of noise and raise the room temp. They are at least 15 years old. I get it, it’s a short sure, but buy new units and save money.

Needs new management

Room looked like it was a nice room at one time but run down and so maintenance has been done in some time. Breakfast bar was horrible, why even have one if you aren’t going to maintain it and serve warm condensed milk.

The worker at check in was friendly and helpful. The facility is in need of upkeep and cleaning. The 1st 2 rooms we tried were very hot with no working air conditioner. The 3rd room was warm but the air conditioner helped a little.

It was ok for the basics.

This is an older and well worn hotel. The room that I was in was clean and comfortable, however, there were few downsides.
I was in the room for six days and had to ask for some housekeeping day 3 to get the garbages. No other service was provided to the room.
For some maintenance issues that were brought up to the staff, some were fixed some were not.
There was no remote for the TV, just the cable box.
Very limited choices for a cold breakfast in the morning

We stayed here for two nights in July 2023.
The staff was pleasant but the air conditioning wasn’t working so the room was extremely hot and humid. As well there was no hot water, so no hot showers. The TV also did not work. Was advertised that a free breakfast was included, but no breakfast was available.

Location is close to highway but no other amenities close by. Asked about a gas station and didn’t get a answer or any help like an address. At 9:30 pm there wasn’t any place to get food in the town as far as I could find. Overpriced but then it is in Inuvik!

Give them a try

I think people just have to give this place a chance. It has plenty of potential, rooms are big, hallways are wide, it’s pretty clean. I think when you are in Inuvik, you have to adjust your expectations. Staff are super friendly and trying their best with limited resources. It’s really not a bad place to take a snooze.

Not bad but no breakfast or laundry

There was supposed to be a free breakfast included but the hotel didn't have an active food handling permit so there was no breakfast... unfortunately we were informed about that until we tried to get breakfast in the morning. The wifi in our room was weak to the point of not being usable so we went to the lobby (wifi was good there). Shower had good pressure and hot water. The town is small, which is a good thing because the hotel seems to be located almost at the edge of town (there are other hotels more centrally located). There were supposed to be laundry facilities onsite but there was only one functioning washer and dryer and they were for staff use. The staff were friendly.

Déjeuner non-inclus, malgré ce qui est annoncé sur le site de l'hôtel et du tiers; expedia
Le chauffage de l'hôtel est très élevé
Même la fenêtre de chambre grande ouverte, il était très inconfortable pour y dormir
Divers bris ici et là, la douche de la chambre ne fonctionnait pas (seulement le bain)

Cependant, personnel très courtois et souriant
Décoration moderne, propreté en générale, très bien

Website indicates free breakfast but this was not supplied.

One loose open teabag in room, when I asked for more they did not have any.

Website says wheelchair accessible, but only if you lift the wheel chair up 6 stairs to the elevator.

Two microwaves in common kitchen area did not work.

Morning of checkout the elevators did not work and I had to ask…only then did staff reset a breaker.

It’s too bad that the staff don’t pick up the garbage and butts outside the entrance while they’re out smoking. The lobby, former breakfast area and stairwells are rapidly becoming a mess.
The rooms aren’t too bad yet, but will decline under the current management.

The staff are friendly and considerate. If you arrive early they will let you come in early and leave late if your plane is late; of course this is when they have a lot of rooms available, which is understandable .
