“Aurora Inn - Churchill”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011
4
people found this review helpful

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights as part of a Globus/Frountiers North tour in October 2011. This hotel is comprised of old apartments. Each room has two stories. Downstairs is a full kitchen and living room with a complete with pull out sofa bed. Upstairs is a loft area where the bed is located and the bathroom. The beds are old and the walls are thin. There was a coffee maker in the kitchen and hairdryer in the bathroom. The keys are just that, actual keys. There is a computer available for free use in the lobby and there is free wireless internet available throughout the hotel. If you are used to Marriotts or other chains, you will likely be disappointed with this hotel, however, you're in Churchill - a town of 900 people, what were you really expecting?!
This hotel does not have a restaurant. The Tundra Inn (hotel and dining room) is where we had several included meals on our tour - this was a 5 minute or less walk. Gypsy's Bakery is a 10 minute walk. You can easily walk across the entire town in 15-20 minutes. There are also a few gift shops within a few minutes walk. You can also walk to the Hudson Bay in about 5-10 minutes.

“tonnes of space”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 October 2011

I spent one night in the Aurora Inn. The room was huge and clean! They are more like condos or apartments. I had a very good sleep. The girl at the front desk was really friendly.

“Very nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2011

person found this review helpful

Lots of room, daily housekeeping, kitchenette, double bed, decent size washroom, basic cable, flat screen tv, I'm not sure what more one could ask for. One thing I did happen is the front door didn't close properly, and had it been a normal Churchill winter, that would of a problem. Other then that, I can't complain.

“Owner exceptionally kind and helpful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2011

person found this review helpful

I arrived here Boxing Day evening (just transiting the town for one night). Every store and restaurant in town was closed. The owner went out of his way to get us some food, both from the staff lunchroom and (I suspect) from his own home.

The hotel itself is quite nice (in the context of what can reasonably be expected in a small, remote, northern community of 1,000 people). The rooms are very large, in fact, I suspect that the building probably started out as a residential apartment block and was later converted to a hotel. Although I had only booked a standard room, I was given a two-level apartment that was very large.

The best restaurant in town (and social center of the town) is 2 blocks away, less than a 5 minute walk. The hotel itself has no food facilities.

The place is simple, but it is clean and the folks who own and run it are very thoughtul.

I was part of a tour group and this hotel was chosen for me. In general I thought it was very mediocre and in desperate need of updating.

Pros:
-spacious
-good TV set
-nice fridge, toaster, dishes & cutlery
-free internet

Cons:
-not very quiet
-cold showers
-skimpy towels
-flat pillows
-needs renovations
-limited TV programming
