Northern Lites Motel

A travelers tale: the north explained

What this motel has done for me is truly incredible. I can honestly say it changed my life in a way I that I can’t quite put into writing. When all was dark at the end of a long journey this beacon of hope welcomed me with a beautiful and warm display of love and kindness. When I finally put my head to rest after the northern lights, it was as if I was floating upon the wingtips of the angels. The sleeping sanctuary seemed crafted by the handiwork of divinity. I will never forget this beacon of light and hope in an otherwise dark and cold place. All in all great place! 5 stars from me. Would recommend.

The best part of this motel is the staff. They WANT you to have a grand experience in Yellowknife. You can set up tours at the front desk and I think that's important. The motel is in the downtown area, so you can walk to restaurants. I didn't rent a car and was able to walk to places, even the Bush Pilot Monument, which I think was 2 kilometers away. Yellowknife has public transportation, and this motel is near a stop. Two blocks away is a grocery store. The rooms are clean.

Memoirs of an American Nomad: The Journey North.

Thousands of years ago when the brave explorers discovered the "great white north" and stumbled upon the now wonderful town of Yellowknife, one solitary structure stood erect amongst the dark sea of pine; bathed in the lofty light of the divine, The Northern Lites Motel welcomed me in from the cold windy night. As I crossed the threshold, a warm waft of air swept over me and carried me into an unexplainable ecstasy. Here I was home. Laying in the bed i tossed and turned all night, but not out of nerves or discomfort, but with laughter. How could i sleep in the midst of angles. The wonderfully talented and charming desk clerk knocked on our door every 30 minutes with questions about our stay and if we needed some warm milk. Timwerd, you've done enough for a life time.

Sincerely,

Good customer service nice people and I enjoyed

Ok place to stay

一人旅には十分すぎる広さと、設備が整ってました。行動しやすい立地も、助かります。

Budget motel, close to downtown

Okay,but needs improvement.

Great price.

Nice simple place.

大きな犬が居て、犬が好きな私にはそれだけで最高な施設でした。
部屋も綺麗で特に匂いなども気になりません。
シングルという部屋は無く、全てツインの部屋の様です。一人ではもて余す広さでした。電子レンジもあり、スーパーで買った冷凍のハンバーグを食べていたら、海外に居るんだというワクワク感が溢れてきました。
トイレも綺麗でお風呂もちゃんとお湯が出ます。
値段も安くて立地も町に近くて買い物にも困りません。

受付のお姉さんは映画に出てきそうなインパクトのある方でした。
立派なホテルより海外の雰囲気を感じられる素敵な宿だと思います。

I lived in yellowknife. This hotel is bad and cheaper in cost because that hotel is mainly used by after bar partiers...it caters to the rougher crowd. Escpecially the rooms on the main floor. They don't bother to up keep n clean them. Because they know most often the rooms will get trashed in some way. So they don't bother to make it even half decent for those paying customers.

Desk clerk was nice, and open past midnight. Otherwise, not a whole lot going for it. Room looked fairly clean, but beaten up. Wifi was so slow I switched back to data. Could hear people upstairs quite clearly. Probably will avoid this one in the future.

OK I have it 3 stars but never go here, it's terrible.
