Thunder Bay Hotels with Bars

Hotel looks good & is undergoing renovations, but the renovations are superficial. Heat doesn't work in some rooms, shower curtains too short, and shower heads installed incorrectly. Everything is being done very cheaply. Be aware that they will put a $250 hold on your credit card for a damage deposit that will not be released for at least 3-5 business days. Make sure that you are checking on this to see that you are refunded the money. I would not recommend this hotel for any solo female traveler. I did not feel safe during my recent stay. I specifically asked not to be placed in a ground floor ”drive-up” room, as the sliding doors are not properly secured. I was put in one of those rooms because the hotel was full, despite having made my reservation over a month ago. When the shuttle dropped me off, the front entrance was blocked by individuals, smoking, who appeared to be under the influence - they were trying to coerce an Indigenous man to join them on the other side of the parking lot. There were loud vehicles in the parking lot most of the night. There were men knocking on random room doors throughout the night. Beer cases littering the hallways. Dismissive front desk staff. It will be the last time staying at the Valhalla - which is too bad as it used to be one of the nicest hotels in Thunder Bay.

The location is very good, just beside the Metro supermarket.

The location of the hotel is superior, it is very convenient for shopping, eating and traveling, the room is relatively large, the facilities are newer, and the bed is very comfortable. For breakfast, the child ordered a waffle sausage set at the restaurant downstairs (extra charge), but no sausage was served. When checking out, he said he thought we didn't want sausage but we were willing to pay for the set? The waiter's brain circuit is very strange.

Traveling across Canada for a move and when arriving to Thunder Bay we were left with no place to stay. And the few places that was left were way outside our budget or did not accept pets. Reviews were not that great so we were sceptical about this hotel. But we had no choice. We were amazed of the great service we got and room was amazingly big, very clean and no smell at all. You have to take in consideration that this is an old building so you do not get the luxury snd structures if a newly built hotel but for just passing by for an over night sleep, we cannot complain. The only thing that was missing was furniture as we only had two beds and a night stand. Overall we were satisfied and way better then what the bad reviews were saying.
