Not bad

When I go on a trip, I prefer to spend money on experiences, not housing, so Discovery Inn wasn’t bad. Restaurant downstairs was alright, and owner was very helpful when our flight got canceled due to weather.

Smoking only Hotel!!! Others stay away!

Smoking Hotel Reeks of smoke everywhere. 3rd Floor is Non Smoking BUT Smoke and Heat rises. Very Hot on Top Floor. Doors don't seal so extreme smoke goes into room. Non-Smoking rooms reek of smoke and all yellowed. Can't get heat down. Open window only works when wind is from that side and not frozen shut. Restaurant is decent but opens at 8AM for breakfast.

Avoid this Ancient Hotel

Avoid this hotel. The room is freaking cold because they boiler crapped out. Maybe they dont wanna get somebody to fixed it. Trying to call front desk when we notice that the room is not getting warm but they didnt answer. Go downstair from 3rd floor without any elevator looks like it will fall down and you need a tetanus shot and the guy is on the restaurant without even leaving a message on the front that he is soming back. Totally disappointed for amount you paid. Too expensive.. the internet you need to pay for $5.25 to be connected. For the amount you will pay better add a little bit and look for other place. Hair found on towels, disgusting hotel. Avoid Avoid, Avoid

Good location

The hotel is in a great location and was super easy to walk up or down the street to restaurants. I would not recommend staying here if you are a non-smoker. The hotel room was average, but was enough for what we needed during our stay.

Good location, helpful staff, and my room appeared to be clean, but.....

The title describes the positives of the Discovery. And I appreciated them, truly. Yellowknife doesn't have enough beds to accommodate growing winter tourism from Asia, as well as the many conferences that take place this time of year.
That said, this hotel is not comfortable and does not meet standards most business or leisure travelers expect. It is dingy and in need of new paint everywhere. The bed in my room was dressed with very badly pilled, thin, sheets, one of which had a hole in the middle. The pillows were clearly also ancient, and cheap. The mattress was super soft and obviously well used over decades. The drapes barely covered the window.
Perhaps you get what you pay for - it was cheaper than other hotels I checked, but the only one available. In future, I definitely would try to find other accommodations in Yellowknife.

Very good location
