    Perfect staying in B&B

    • Stayed 6 nights

    Nothing disappointing. Everything was perfect! You never regret staying in this B&B. If I come back to Yellowknife in the future, definitely I will stay in this B&B again.

    Breakfast provided in the kitchen was delicious and various. Breakfast includes bread, milk, juice, fruits, butter, etc B&B was super warm in winter , so we could sleep without any blanket. Spacious room was great and the view from the window was beautiful. Bathroom and room was super clean. You can walk down to the frozen lake just behind B&B at night and can watch Aurora !!! That's the easy and amazing experience. The host in B&B is very friendly and helps everything we need. My daughter walked the host's dog (buddy^^) on the frozen lake.

    The location was amazing, easy access for walking into town or onto the lake to see the northern lights. Very cozy, beautiful space with everything we could need; snacks, coffee, bath and TV to watch the football games of course. We were even offered some sticks and pucks to play hockey as we had brought our skates.

    It's a true B&B so you're sharing a house. However as far as B&Bs go this one is pretty good in this respect as you have a separate suite and the hosts respect your privacy.

    Beautiful lake view, close to the old town. Suite has mini kitchen which is really useful.

    The bathroom features a gorgeous claw foot tub but there wasn't ever enough hot water to be able to enjoy it. May have been the time of year (-30 temperatures)

    Everything was wonderful. Great options for breakfast, fully equipped kitchen and more, and a unique view. The king bed was wonderfully comfortable. The BnB truly felt like a vacation in and of itself

    We just LOVED everything about this stunning B&B. So cosy, romantic and you have a whole apartment not just a room. And the views are worldclass and you can walk directly out on the frozen lake from the garden and see stunning Auroras Highoy recommended and we would love to come back

    The location in Old Town was superb. It was a beautiful, quiet area, lovely homes and walking distance to great food options - and we had a gorgeous view and access to the lake. Our hosts provided special touches that made our stay comfortable and were very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend this BnB.

    can't think of anything

    Everything about Great Slave Lake B&B was exceptional! The place was modern, yet quaint and cozy. We had an amazing view of the snow-covered trees and frozen lake. It honestly felt like something out of a storybook. It had everything we needed and Andrea & Blair were extremely helpful and friendly. They answered all our questions about local tourist companies, activities and restaurants to try, and even went out of their way to get us a AAA battery that we needed. Unfortunately, we were unable to see the northern lights (the sole purpose of our trip), but we do not regret the overall experience. If we ever revisit Yellowknife, we will absolutely book this place again!

    We didn’t get to meet the couple that runs the B&B. We would have loved to learn a bit about them and Yellowknife.

    We liked the B&B. It was clean and we loved being close to the water! We were even able to kayak right off the dock!
