The hotel iteself was fine. Clean, but basic and dated. The problem began soon after check-in. My laptop wasn't picking up the wireless signal so I sought help from the staff. The front desk people were incredibly kind and eager to help. The General Manager however was rude and terribly unhelpful. I was so frustrated with the poor service that... More

I recently had an experience with Discovery Lodge that Made me rethink a notion. Not all business owners are out to take you. Discovery Lodge was amazing with communicating with me and my family on a recent trip. Their employee, Felipe is incredible. The Manager David was forthright and we are very satisfied with Discovery Lodge. I highly recommend staying... More

Staying in the north is an experience everyone should experience once. I was initially reluctant to stay here as I read that is was only a 5 minute walk from the airport, but was unable to get a room anywhere else on a couple of the nights I needed, so booked here. It turns out that, while it is only... More

First off, let's remember Iqaluit is in the Canadian Arctic, so they have different (and lower) standards here. The Discovery Lodge is a basic hotel in the middle of nowehere. Check-in was perfectly pleasant. To avoid problems at night, you can only get into the hotel proper after 6 pm with a special electronic key. The corridor and room smelled... More

Our handling agent set this place up, but we were very disappointed in it. It was extremely over priced. We paid CAD 219, and I would equate it to a Super8 in the USA. Not a good value. They are taking advantage of tourism. Rooms were clean, but no frills - same with the bathroom. The people at the front... More

My husband and I had a very pleasant stay at the Discovery Lodge last month. The airport shuttle picked us up promptly, the room (though small) was quite comfortable, the housekeeping staff was pleasant and helpful, and the restaurant was excellent. Best of all, a FREE washer and dryer--a big bonus when you've just returned from a backpacking trip! More

We arrived at 8:30PM and called the hotel for the advertised shuttle. We were told it was on the way. It did not show up, and repeated attempts to call the hotel were met by a busy signal. After 40 minutes (a freezing rain was falling) we managed to find a taxi. Our complaints with management were dismissed. We asked... More
