Only place I’d stay in kenora
The cost is crazy for a small room but it was clean and modern. Upgraded to king bed and lake view, was a nice room just on the small size for a $406 a night room (after taxes and extras they get you on!!) That being said, I’ve been in all the other big hotels in kenora and although cheaper.. this is by far superior!!

This place was awful. Extremely noisy and unhelpful staff. Says there’s a pool but there’s not. It’s across the street and you can’t go because there’s a set schedule. Restaurant burnt down.

I had booked this place as I was informed that we would be able to get pool access to the rec centre as they do not have a pool on site anymore. The front reception advise the pool was open Sunday sept 22 at 7:30 and we were given passes. We walked over to find that the pool was not available till 1:30. The works should know the schedule as it is something g you offer and the fact that check out is at 11 we can not even use the service. I would not come back based on that and no accommodation on site.

This was by far the smallest room we have stayed in which was really tricky with 2 kids and a pet. The hotel is portrayed as pet friendly this simply means pets are allowed the area is not great for animals. You have to cross a very busy road in order to get to grassed area and its very steep. There was alot of people who were drinking heavily and made us all feel unsafe. Its a rough area. If you were traveling alone and have to walk a dog alone it might be dangerous. The elevator is even tiny! It was not cheap we payed almost 400$ for the tiniest of rooms. Id really try elsewhere

The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Nowhere to breakfast there. Our room was good but our bathroom was very, very dirty.. It had dirty fingerprints all over..from bottom to top. It also had feces on the door frame.. We mentioned it to the staff and they just put their hands together, nodded their head at us and said, "I'm very sorry"🤔.. Not the answer I was expecting.
