Very pleasant and comfortable stay
We had a very comfortable stay at Nova Inn Yellowknife. We booked a large Deluxe Queen Suite with a kitchenette and a sitting area with a sofa, which made it feel spacious and practical for our trip.
Yes, the furniture is a bit outdated, but everything was clean, warm, comfortable, and cozy - which mattered much more to us. The king-size bed was a highlight: an incredibly comfortable mattress, heavenly bedding, and fantastic double pillows. After long nights of chasing the aurora, it truly felt like bliss to sink into such a great bed and get a proper night’s sleep.
The location is also excellent - perfectly situated between Old Town and downtown, with everything within easy walking distance.
I also want to mention the staff, as I was surprised to see some negative comments in other reviews. Everyone we encountered during our three-night stay was genuinely kind and helpful. On our last day, we asked if a later checkout would be possible so we could align with the (free!) airport shuttle, and they happily accommodated us since it wasn’t too busy after the weekend.
We had a very pleasant and comfortable stay and would definitely consider coming back.

Room was clean, but in need of attention. Paint was worn off the walls, walls had patching that wasn't painted back over, bathroom tiles were cracked, it looked like the toilet seat had been burned by a torch, the shower is probably still draining from the shower I took yesterday. Overall, the place needs to invest in maintenance and upkeep. It was worn out. I will say the staff were very friendly and helpful though.

Overall it wasn’t bad for the price compared to other places. Was able to save lots of money with the in suite kitchen. Room was spacious, black out curtains were clutch. It’s within walking distance of everything downtown so there is lots to do around it.
Big issues were cleanliness. Room cleanup they only rotated the sheets which was easy to tell since the small stain that was towards the top of the bed was rotated near the foot of the bed after room was cleaned. I also received a towel with an old massive poop stain on it which was folded to cover it. Called the front desk and didn’t get an answer so just used the other towel.
Overall, you get what you pay for and this was on par with what was expected.

Good choice in Yellowknife
Very Nice hotel in Yellowknife.
Rooms are comfortable, clean . Bathroom is well organized. The air conditionning is a Little bit noisy. Cleaning is done on a daily basis.
Staff is very helpfull and very kind.
You can do laundry in the hotel from 9am to 7PM for a very good Price .
Sometimes the car park can’t accomodate all the cars staying so you have to Park in the street.
