I came to Winnipeg for a business trip and stayed on the Fairmont Gold floor for a week. My…read moreexperience at this hotel was hands down the best I've ever had. It was my first time visiting Canada and the staff went above and beyond to celebrate my arrival. My room was wonderful, I had great views of the city and the bed was extremely comfortable- I didn't want to leave! Staying on Fairmont's gold floor had me feeling as if I were royalty. I loved the breakfast spread and the evening appetizers served in the lounge. Food was so fresh and you could tell it was all prepared in house by the chefs. I ordered room service a few times and this is how I fell in love with Winnipegs famous honey dill sauce. The one factor that made my stay unforgettable was how kind and attentive the staff are. From the doormen, housekeeping, Fairmont gold team members and general manager- they all truly made my stay so very special. The hospitality displayed at this hotel is unlike anything I've ever experienced before. Anytime I am in Winnipeg, the Fairmont is the only place for me.

A modest small hotel in a great location. We stayed two nights prior to a trip up to Churchill…read more Our room on the 4th floor was tidy, had a fantastic view of the Human Rights Museum and bike sculpture, sported a king bed and sitting area and a modest, older bathroom. While we had a tub, the phone-booth sized plastic insert shower was a real disappointment. The bathrooms are really ready for a refresh. Housekeeping kept things very clean and the hallways and lobby project a nice vibe. There was quite a lot of loud door slamming from the heavy solid doors that necessitated using my trusty foam ear plugs for sleeping. The breakfast (included in our rate) was a tale of two extremes. During the work week we were allowed to order off a limited menu with Benedict's pancakes and more served in ample portions. On Saturday there was a meager "buffet" of institutional scrambled eggs, bacon, mixed fruit and grocery store mini muffins-something below even a U.S. best western. In addition the WiFi was wholly inadequate for posting photos and I ended up turning it off on my phone. For a short stay in Winnipeg you can't beat the location-directly across from the Market at the Forks food hall and short walk to many attractions.

I had a fantastic time in Winnipeg, Manitoba. While there I stayed at the Inn at the Forks. The…read morehotel is located conveniently downtown within walking distance of the Forks Market, the Human Rights Museums, and more. The hotel is modern and luxurious. It's also very quiet which is great for resting after a long day of exploring the Peg. The bed was so comfortable that I slept the whole night through. I usually get up a few times in the middle of the night so I felt very rested in the morning. I loved the modern feel of the bathroom. It was clean and spacious. The shower head was powerful which is really important to me. I don't drink caffeine. Instead, I take a nice hot shower in the morning to get my day started. If you do drink coffee though they have a coffee machine in the room for you. All the employees I came in contact with were friendly and polite. There's a restaurant on site that's open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We ate breakfast there and it was delicious. One of the evenings I walked in I heard live music coming from the restaurant. I had a lovely stay and would not hesitate to stay again. It's quiet, comfortable, and modern.

And by family-friendly, I hope you like having kids running all over the place. Parking is available on the side. The hotel restaurant and main area are clean and well-maintained. So are the rooms. They use LED lighting everywhere here, and it gave my room a really neat white glow. The part where they skimped out on? The corridors. You'll think you stepped back into the 1990s. I know the Holiday Inn logo is lime-green, and that's what the interior designers were gunning for, but seriously, the walls look tacky. Please change it to navy blue or something. There is a pool here, but it's obviously designed for kids. I thought I'd take a look (with the idea of doing some laps) but one look at all the screaming kids and I changed my mind. There are even fairyland-type statuettes all over. As in smiling snails and mushrooms. See pic. I couldn't run away fast enough. If kids make you jittery, you're probably better off going for the Hilton or Sheraton, which are also closer to the airport. However, if you want a cheap place to stay on a weeknight (when the Hilton cranks their rates), this is a half-decent option.

Summary: Decent hotel with friendly staff but could use some modernization…read more Details: Lobby is small but attractive. Bonus points that you can reach the next door Elephant and Castle pub without going back outside. Lobby Starbucks had an actual barista but not breakfast food. Lobby restaurant opens for weekday breakfast from 7-11am and serves pretty good food. Rooms are ok but lack extra amenities. Bed and pillows are comfortable so that alone was almost worth 4 stars. Wifi works well. But closet is tiny. There's no safe. Toilet paper is sandpaper. Toilet itself had flushing issues. Gym is tiny without many machines. Smells of chlorine from the pool next door. People were nice. Would I stay here again? Yes Do I wish it was a little nicer? Also yes

Parking is simple, all the way down on the basement on the "green" level - nice thing about parking down there is the car is warm in the morning! Property is clean & quiet even when it's sold out on game day! Room is functional w a tub/shower (not my fav) combo in the small bathroom. Towels are decent and water for shower is hot! I appreciate the electric tea kettle in the room. Club on 12th floor is solid - I like there is attendant there for breakfast. Breakfast is decent: pancakes, croissant, scrambled eggs, sausage links. During the day that are soft drinks, chips and cookies. Again always very clean. Friendly service all around & and Elephant and Castle in the same building. I am a fan!!

I've been in Winnipeg since Tuesday and my home away from home was the Hilton Garden Inn…read more Apparently it's been open for about a year or so. There was a tuck shop in the lobby for snacks. There was a fitness room and pool but I didn't get a chance to check them out. There were two small bottles of water in the room ... they were usually $3 but the hotel was having brown water problems so the bottled water was free. My room had a Keurig coffee maker and a mini fridge. Parking was complimentary. WIFI was complimentary and speedy. My room faced a highway and even with the double blinds, it was still a bit noisy. The hotel is next to what is supposed to be an upscale outlet mall. I walked around it and it seemed quiet and sad ... I was surprised to learn that it has been around for about three years. There were some empty stores and I had assumed that the mall was newly opened and waiting for tenants to move in but that is not the case. There are some restaurants nearby like Montana's, McDonald's, Popeyes, etc. In the next couple of years, it looks like there will be more so this will be a more happening area ... it has the feel of being newly developed. There was a restaurant in the lobby (literally in the lobby) of the hotel called the Garden Grille & Bar. I had supper there my first two nights because it was cold and snowy so I didn't feel like going outside. Tuesday night I had wings with salt & pepper. They were good. I'm not a fan of battered wings but the batter was light and crispy. I'd get them again. Wednesday night I ordered the Roasted Half Chicken and I got it with spiral fries as my side (as recommended by my server). The spiral fries were really good. The chicken was just okay. The skin was kind of rubbery rather than crispy. I didn't taste any lemon pepper. The chicken itself was a bit overcooked and dry. And I didn't think it was worth $24. I wouldn't get this again.

I stayed here twice, on either side of flights out of Winnipeg Airport…read more PROS: - Location - Quick and easy free shuttle to/from the airport (not really needed unless you have a lot of heavy luggage or some sort of infirmity/injury or small children, etc. to wrangle) - Easy walk from the Winnipeg airport exit through the Grand (right across the street from the airport to the right) - Spacious room - Large, comfy bed - TV, coffee maker, microwave, fridge in room - Sofa & coffee table in room - Iron, ironing board, hangers and folding luggage caddy in room - Safe in room - Deadbolt and security bar on door - Office chair and desk area - Phone in the room with free local calls - Lots of lighting options - Computer/office area available downstairs - Payphone that accepts credit card or cash available downstairs - Late check out/early check in available CONS: - Terrible restaurant (Gateway) - Loud doors - particularly an issue for rooms at the end of the hallway (cluster of multiple doors including stairs right next to each other (a few inches apart)) - For some reason they placed the TV in front of the sofa so it was awkward watching it from the bed. - Terrible plug locations near bed. - Leaky toilet - No local guide to restaurants that deliver there - Quality of desk staff - Tv kept losing signal 8/15 STAY I arrived early so I ate at the Gateway hotel restaurant while I waited for my room. I figured no one could mess up a chicken sandwich right? I was wrong. Worst chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. It tasted straight up like nothing but grease. ZERO flavor. At least the fries were decent. As to hotel check in, though the clerks were nice, the clerk who checked me in kept saying my room number out loud in front of other guests - like over and over again several times. As a person staying alone, I did not appreciate his lack of discretion and disregard for my privacy and safety. Most modern hotels, that are security conscious, point to the room number on the card instead of saying it aloud. "This is your room number" (point). "It's on xyz floor. The elevators are over there." When I arrived at the room, the door was not locked or closed all the way. Yet another safety lapse. Luckily, no one was waiting in my room to kill or otherwise harm or assault me. There were random black hairs in the tub and on the shower curtain. Could be a previous guest, could be housekeeping. Who knows? Otherwise, the bathroom looked reasonably clean. Though I asked for a quiet room I was put in a room with a lot of doors right next to each other including the stairs so heard doors opening and slamming shut (as apparently there are no sound dampeners for the doors installed) all night and had difficulty sleeping. 8/19 STAY This time I arrived later. Given the same room as before. When I tried to ask for a different room due to the noise, the clerk acted like I was delusional and stated that the only noisy rooms are the rooms next to the elevator. She then proceeds to tell me that there is a note in the system to NOT move my room. Though she didn't seem to know why and thought maybe I requested it. Tired of trying to explain to this not so shiny woman the noise issue, I just said whatever. It's for one night. I'll live. She then quite confidently tells me I can call downstairs if it is noisy at night. And if I did call, what was she going to do about it? Lock the door to the stairs? Forbid guests from leaving or entering their rooms all night? I was tired and ready to try to get some sleep before going home so I said whatever. I did call down to ask if reception knew of local restaurants that deliver to the hotel. Instead of recommendations (as most hotels provide in room on a card or can tell you if you ask) she just keeps telling me to use Uber Eats. I neither have an account with Uber Eats nor want one so I gave up talking to this person ...once more, as she obviously would be of no help...again, and instead just tried Pizza Hut as we had ordered from them on a previous trip for hotel delivery in another part of Canada. Luckily they did do delivery there so I didn't have to starve or choke down more overpriced terrible food from Gateway. It was also during this stay that I noticed the toilet was leaking at the base - which seemed to happen only when sitting on it and dried itself in a couple of hours. MY OVERALL IMPRESSION: It was a cheaper and quick place to stay for flights out of that airport that you can use your Wyndham points to book. For those reasons/that purpose and that purpose alone, it is serviceable. Just don't let them stick you in one of the end rooms of doom and don't expect much from the staff or restaurant.

They're mostly old and tired, which makes them look dingy, esp the tiling in the shower. Also, charging 15.00 per night for parking is wild. I don't care if it's at the airport and you're "paying for convenience", it's incredibly ridiculous to pay that. Definitely in need of upgrades. (Side note: front desk staff were very friendly and efficient so no slight to them...the hotel just needs some major refresh)

This past summer, I stayed at a Days Inn in Steinbach and had a wonderful experience. I racked up enough points for a free night. I used that free night at this Days Inn in Winnipeg. The location is great. It's by the airport. It's also close to CF Polo Park if you'd like to go nuts shopping until your heart's content. I dropped by after driving seven hours from Minneapolis. I was prompted to check in earlier. My estimated check-in time was way off what the actual was, mainly because I did a few shopping stops stateside before finally crossing the border. I like the pre-check-in process. You provide your photo ID (driver's licence is what I used) through a secure site. You don't need to do it at the front desk. I had no problem finding a parking spot fairly close to the front door. I got all my belongings out of my car and checked in. I got the nicest woman at the front desk. I said that I was checking in much later than expected. She smiled, which meant that all was fine. I did need to provide my credit card for incidentals. She let me know that it would be $200. I had no issues there. She gave me a card key and let me know where the elevators were. Cool! My room was by the elevators. You'd think that it would be a noisy stay. It wasn't. I didn't hear them at all, which was wonderful. I had bought some drinks and snacks from Sobeys. I was delighted to use a rather fancy fridge that was far from mini. I had three one-litre bottles of pop and they all fit in this fridge nicely. I had also bought three beef empanadas. I heated them up for breakfast the following day in the microwave. It worked well. The only downside is that this room wasn't built with technology in mind. Many power outlets were taken for the TV, coffee maker, fridge, microwave, and lamps. There were no USB ports for your devices. I travel with power plugs accepting USB A and C connections, so I was good charging my phone, tablet, and watch. I also travel with a small humidifier in the wintertime, so I actually needed two of these power plugs. I was good because it's not my first rodeo. However, if you're not prepared, you'll not have the best experience in your room. I got a king bed. It was comfortable. I had a great night's sleep. I also had enough pillows to support my head. The bathroom was great. The shower was effective. I felt relaxed after a decent road trip. The pressure was excellent. I liked the mini bar of Dove soap by the sink. It was Dove products for the shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner. The sink area was spacious. The sink and toilet worked nicely. No complaints. I used the closet to hang up my jacket. I was only here briefly, so I didn't bother hanging out clothes and such. It did have an ironing board and an iron. Wifi was free. The code was in the room key's sleeve. I was happy with the connection to upload my photos to Yelp, write reviews, and more. Checking out was a breeze. I did it online and left the card in my room. Done! Checkout was at 11 am. It was perfect. I had the option to ask for a later checkout time, but I didn't need it. I had a comfortable stay at this hotel. I'd return in a heartbeat. It is definitely much more affordable than staying at any Marriott hotel in Winnipeg. (486)
