Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

While, rather modest and unimpressive from the outside (looks like it is an old apartment building converted to a hotel) the interior is modern and chic. I stayed one evening in a king suite with a view of the city and was impressed with the layout of the suite and the sophistication of the interior finishings. Very clean room and the complementary breakfast was delicious! Wonderful central location, steps to the river and the park and the restaurants of the downtown core I will definitely stay again if I’m passing through Saskatoon. I will ask for a river view next time 😊
