Top Hotels with Gyms in Thunder Bay

We always book a room at the Valhalla Inn on our way through Thunder Bay, and usually look forward to staying. Unfortunately, this trip was a disappointment and will likely be our last. We stayed in a king studio drive up. Soon after arriving and settling in we found that a light in the suite wasn't working, and the sliding door from the suite to the parking lot was broken (both the latch and the charlie bar), apparently the result of a recent break-and-enter. We returned to the front desk and were offered a different room. The new room reeked of cigarette smoke and so we returned to the front desk again and indicated we could stay in the original room if someone would fix the door. A very plesant maintenance worker was in and out of the room a few times and ultimately secured the door with a broom stick. When we approached the front desk to request compensation for the poor room condition and disruption to our evening we were informed no compensation was possible as we had booked our trip with Expedia. Furthermore, the front desk employee was curt and unapologetic for the inconvenience. When we travel we opt to pay a little more to feel safe, comfortable and welcome. The Valhalla failed to meet these expectations and next time through the city we plan to explore the Best Western Plus Norwester.

When I need to clean and sanitize including dusting, I then don't recommend a hotel. The floors were not very clean, I clouding carpet, always double check, dust, and especially bathrooms should be spotless! Including doors, baseboards and walls in the bathroom. This was on the the pet floor and the carpet in the hallways, near elevator are dirty, not maintained, even the lobby should always be clean but it was not.

It’s pretty sad when you get caught on the highway in a traffic jam for over 6 hours then you finally get to hotel to checkin, go to your room to find out that the keycards don’t work so you go back to front desk to get 2 more keycards to get in your room to find out that they don’t work either. Then the person at front desk brings up more keycards to try before you finally get into your room after 30 to 45 mins. You get into room to find out the bathroom has hair on the toilet and in the shower. So really it was a terrible experience cause after finally getting in my room I got maybe 4 to 5 hours sleep before I had to checkout by 11am. So no I wouldn’t recommend this place as a good place to relax and stay

The hotel has good space, particularly spacious passages, high floors, and good facilities. Because of the epidemic, the breakfast provided is cold packed bread🥯

The hotel is quite satisfactory, the rooms are small and the facilities are okay. The parking lot is spacious and free. There are not many supermarkets and places to eat around. The price/performance ratio is so-so.

The hotel is very new, the service staff are very friendly, the location is suitable for walking by the lake, recommended!

One night stay on a Monday night. Room was nice enough, breakfast in the third floor breakfast room was good - seems to mostly the usual pre-made food but the ”quiche” and some nice sourdough bread felt a little bit nicer than at some other hotels. Location seems just okay to me - the things we wanted to do were a bit more ”downtown” but I suppose that depends on what you are doing while you are in town. Close to the airport, several restaurant options and two Metro grocery stores. Seemed like one of the better Thunder Bay options we had available given the corporate rate I got.

We drove from Toronto to Manitoba and back, stayed in several hotels along the way, and this one was our favourite. Rooms are clean and spacious and everything is done right. Our stay was relaxing and comfortable. And the customer service was exceptional: when we first arrived, due to a mix-up (caused by booking.com), the gentleman at the front desk couldn't find our reservation. But even though they were fully booked, he not only found a (better!) room for us but also gave us a significant discount ”for the trouble” (which turned out not to be their fault anyway). He still honoured that even after he eventually found our original reservation in their system.

Not the usual quality for a Wyndham hotel. Very disappointed. Building is an old motel. Entrance and reception area were redecorated quite nicely though. Room was small, shower curtain was filthy, one of the shampoo canisters in the shower stall was missing, was only given one set of towels for two people. There was something on the wall covered in a facecloth, did not dare look underneath the face cloth, peep hole in door was replaced with cardboard, carpet old and stained, dated decor, phone in room did not work, no fridge in room, no breakfast, no elevator. Restaurant in hotel was not open and desk staff was not very helpful in finding a restaurant near by. When we reserved the room we specified that we were looking for a hotel with restaurant inside the hotel they did not mention that the restaurant would be closed. Drunk young man in front foyer of hotel swearing loudly into cell phone for quite some time but hotel staff was not trying to deal with him at all. Would not recommend this hotel and would not stay here again.

Traveling across Canada for a move and when arriving to Thunder Bay we were left with no place to stay. And the few places that was left were way outside our budget or did not accept pets. Reviews were not that great so we were sceptical about this hotel. But we had no choice. We were amazed of the great service we got and room was amazingly big, very clean and no smell at all. You have to take in consideration that this is an old building so you do not get the luxury snd structures if a newly built hotel but for just passing by for an over night sleep, we cannot complain. The only thing that was missing was furniture as we only had two beds and a night stand. Overall we were satisfied and way better then what the bad reviews were saying.
