Nova Inn Yellowknife ★★★

📍 4401 Franklin Ave 3rd Floor, Yellowknife

"No heating at night, cold**, super poor hygiene, do not stay in this No heaters in my room, very dirty room"

The Explorer Hotel
8.4 (109 reviews)

The Explorer Hotel ★★★

📍 4825 49th Ave, Yellowknife

"If we return to Yellowknife, we would probably stay The Explorer Hotel again. It is probably one of the best hotels in Yellowknife, but do not expect 4 or 5 star accommodations, facilities, or staff. The rooms and common areas are kept clean, but the hotel is showing its age. The gym has a decent offering of fitness equipment, but some is in disrepair. The front desk staff are perfunctory in executing their duties, but less than motivated. The biggest draw is its location - in the heart of prime aurora viewing territory. While pricey, Trader’s Grill served good food and The Trapline Lounge is a good spot for drinks & snacks. Skye, the bartender in the Trapline, was fantastic."

Jenny's Guest House ★★

📍 5102 52 St, Yellowknife

"We were able to use the kitchen and dining area freely. Basic seasonings🧂 and cooking utensils were provided, so we were able to cook rice and grill steaks🥩. It was fun experiencing a Canadian kitchen. Also, the shower🚿 switch was unique and I was confused, but upon closer inspection, I saw instructions posted on the wall."

Nova Inn Yellowknife ★★★
"Nova Inn Yellowknife provides almost round the clock shuttle service to the airport. Located in a very central location. You can either eat on the third floor restaurant which has excellent food and service or you can find other asian restaurants like Vietnamese or ********* within walking distance. There is the Independent grocer also within walking distance. Overall, it was a very enjoyable and relaxing stay."

The Explorer Hotel ★★★
"This hotel was just okay. On the day I checked in, I found hair and a lot of dirt on the sheets, so I had to call room service to get them changed. The hotel facilities are generally a bit old, but the view from the window was really nice. It's also super convenient, with a supermarket just a few minutes' walk away."

Quality Inn & Suites Yellowknife ★★★
"Well located, breakfast ok, they don’t clean the room and make the bed everyday, only take the garbage and change the towels. I have stayed in many hotels in Europe , Africa and Asia and never seen like this."

Capital Suites Yellowknife ★★
"There are no slippers provided. Shampoo and body wash are available, but it's probably best to bring your own. I didn't encounter any problems during my stay. The staff were very helpful and polite."

Chateau Nova Yellowknife ★★★
"The Christmas prices were a bit on the higher side, but there aren't many hotels in Yellowknife. This one is relatively new, a solid three to four-star property. The environment is clean and tidy, no major issues."

Super 8 by Wyndham Yellowknife ★★★
"This is a decent hotel option for an aurora viewing trip. The location is very close to the airport. If you arrive in Toronto late at night, a taxi can come directly to your hotel; with a tip, it will cost less than 20 Canadian dollars. There's a Tim Coffee and Starbucks nearby, as well as an Independent supermarket and Walmart, making it convenient. However, the hotel environment is just average, about the level of a Motel 168. The staff are very friendly. Breakfast is very basic, just bread and eggs. It's okay for a short trip of one or two nights."
