Top Lakehead University Hotel Reviews

The Prince Arthur Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Love this 100 year old hotel. Restaurant was great. Staff were friendly."

Days Inn by Wyndham Thunder Bay North

10/10 Excellent

"People were nice and helpful & property and room was clean."

Room for Everyone - Close to University & Hospital

10/10 Excellent

"Property was clean and communication was fast and clear."

Charming 3-bedroom condo with WiFi and AC in lovely Thunder Bay

8/10 Good

"The condo itself had lots of space and was conveniently located. The hosts were responsive and super on top of answering questions and helping with checking in and out. My only reason for concern was that the listing mentioned there was A/C. That only existed in 1 room. The faucet was barely holding on in the kitchen. It was clearly a house that had been used for multiple housing units in the past, perhaps for college kids. I did appreciate the washer and dryer. That was great. But there were old clothes to the side of the washer and dryer that remained from previous visitors. So, all in all, main areas were clean. Stuff was secure. Folks were responsive. But just needs a bit of repair and freshening up."

Welcoming 5-bedroom home with spacious deck and yard!

10/10 Excellent

"Was a great place to host my whole family under one roof."
