Lake Blatchford Vacations from $498

The host is very flexible and helpful.

A friend and I booked the Executive Apartment, which has two rooms (each with their own bathroom), a well-appointed kitchen and living room, and laundry facilities in the unit. It worked out great for us. We enjoyed each having our own space, being able to have meals in our unit, and being able to do laundry. The place is very clean and the unit was new. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The shuttle was a plus as well and the driver even took us to the airport off-cycle from the published shuttle times. We are passing through Yellowknife again in a couple of weeks and just switched our accommodation to again stay at the Chateau Nova.

The breakfast was poor two out of three days. There were homeless camping in parking lot and did not appear to much security around

I won't be back. This property is in desperate shape. Filth, old beds and mouldy grout are just a few of the things. The lobby, a hotel centerpiece has furniture that should be in a dumpster. Having stayed in the Chateau Nova before, this is nowhere close to that in any way.

Reservations were messed up when I booked 4 rooms for two days, and then changed one room for a single day stay. What could possibly go wrong. It did.
