We were greeted warmly and the room was simple and clean. It's located right in the center of town and the owners know everyone in Churchill, so if you need a recommendation they're a great resource.

My mom & I stayed at the Polar Inn as our base for taking Great White Bear Tours out on the tundra to watch the bears. The proprietors are extremely nice and friendly. The inn is nothing fancy, but it's centrally located, which makes a difference when you're walking back from dinner in bitterly cold winds. LOVE the free WiFi (one of my must-haves). Breakfast was really nice - the waffle maker was our fave, yoghurt and fresh fruit was awesome, too.

They have a nice gift shop and even sell stamps (including international). The post office isn't too far away (it's next to the liquor store), but the post office wanted us to purchase entire books of stamps - it was nice of the inn to offer them individually.

Mom did all the arranging and she didn't book a package - she saved quite a lot of money by booking our hotel, airfare and Great White Bear tours a la carte. Just be sure to book well in advance. (She booked in April for a November visit.)

My only gripe (and this seemed prevalent throughout Churchill) was that there is so much waste created that can be avoided - styrofoam plates and cups (styrofoam NEVER breaks down), plastic utensils, etc. Churchill is in the middle of nowhere, and although they do have a recycling facility on the edge of town, getting anything in or out of town is a big process. Sending all that waste to a dump seems criminal. Installing a dish washer and providing reusable dinnerware seems so much smarter and more earth-friendly.

My spouse and I spent three nights at this hotel during our polar bear watch trip at Thanksgiving ... we saw four bears! We have nothing but good things to say about this hotel. Louise, the owner, was extremely helpful, very friendly and we got lots of stories about the town. The Inn also rents SUV that you can return to the airport; very convenient. We had a standard room that was very clean, the rooms are sound-proof as we never heard people's tvs at night and the self-serve continental breakfast had lots of choices. It is within walking distance to all amenities. The pictures on their web site are accurate.

We just came back from Churchill, watching the amazing polar bears, we stayed at this inn, and was impressed with the cleaniness, the people that ran it, they were very helpful. They have a continental breakfast that was good. I would recommend this place.
