Overview
Located across from Lake Nipissing and about a 6-minute drive from the downtown North Bay area, this hotel is popular with guests who seek accommodations slightly outside of the downtown core and who don't mind driving to access shops and restaurants.
more All of the 50 rooms at this hotel have free Wi-Fi, cable TV, a mini-fridge, a microwave, a coffeemaker, a hair dryer and an iron and ironing board. All rooms come with a seating area and desk with ergonomic chair. Guests can choose between standard rooms (queen or double beds) or kitchenette suites (includes a stove, pots, dishes and glassware). Pets are permitted for no extra charge and the hotel offers accessible rooms.
While there is no on-site restaurant, guests are offered a free continental breakfast daily which includes hot, self-made waffles and hard boiled eggs, and there are a number of dining options located within a 5-minute walk of the hotel. On-site parking is free and can accommodate oversize vehicles. The hotel has a business centre and a 24-hour front desk.
Shopping is close by at the North Bay Mall (a 2-minute drive). Laurentian Ski Hill is a 17-minute drive away, while North Bay Memorial Gardens (arena and recreation centre) is an 8-minute drive away. (All distances and travel time estimates: Google Maps)
Confirmed with a front desk agent: the hotel is undergoing renovations to be complete in June 2014 which includes new carpets, newly painted surfaces, mattresses, bedding, room decor and flat screen TVs (call date: April 1, 2014).
