I stayed at the Frobisher Inn in early July 2006 for a few nights. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Ask for a room with a view of the harbour and Frobisher Bay. The food was ok. The overall room and furnishings are on the level of a Comfort Inn. On the dark side, it was cold during our visit and the hotel had turned off the heat followng some warm weather a few days previous. The room was 15-16 degrees celsius in the morning and late evening. The vent in the bathroom near the ceiling was the same vent as the bathroom in the adjoining room -- so I could hear showers etc. The walls are thin. Noise travels so I could hear music and the the rythme of snoring in the night from nearby rooms -- although I slept well. Although the people are nice, tourism in Iqaluit is not well developed. It is difficult to find things to do or places to eat. I'd recommend contacting Polynya Tours (Eric) that was advertised at the hotel front desk. Take a city tour and and ride up the nearby Sylvia Grennell River. A visit to the unspoiled beauty of the Tundra on a river trip made the cost and minor inconveniences seem unimportant. If I return I might consider a B&B where I could cook my own food.
