Woodland Inn - Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan

This is the second time I've stayed at this little local Inn, and both times, I was impressed with how they manage and maintain the spaces. Understanding that no place is perfect, what matters most to me is delivery on the promise made, and they do that well without any fanfare. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean, functional, and comfortable. The beds are comfortable. On this trip i stopped at the breakfast area and grabbed a cup of tea and a muffin before taking off. I normally avoid baked goods at hotel breakfasts because they're usually packaged stale affairs, but this muffin was soft, fresh, and tasty. I can't speak to the coffee as I don't drink much coffee, but if it's anything like the rest of the offering it will be perfectly acceptable.

Considering the less palatable options often on offer for accommodation in rural northern areas, this little place tops my list.

Perfect little motel. The rooms aren’t anything super fancy but they have had a few upgrades and were totally spotless. The location is close to school playgrounds for kids and the No Frills is right next door if you need to pick anything up. The continental breakfast exceeded expectations, serving toast, cereal, yogurt, muffins, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, juice, and coffee. The staff were super friendly and helpful too.

Recently stayed here for work. Rooms were clean and the staff were extremely nice. Hotel was quiet and within walking distance to everything you would need.

When I booked I mentioned the time I would be there to check in. Which was At 8am.. I showed up. They checked me in. It was not very busy. When I checked out they double charged me. Said I was charged for checking in early. Never once mentioned to me. Have called numerous times to try and get this resolved. Absolutely zero response from owners who are the only ones who can change the charge and outcome. Brutal service

Stayed one night on my way through. It is a very nice modern hotel. It is as updated and upscale as the big chains. Everything was very clean. The rooms and common space are well lit and contemporary. The location is convenient. Just about everything you could want is in walking distance. The staff was professional and cordial. I made a point of complimenting them on the quality of their facility at checkout. I would definitely stay there again and I'm happy that my room fees went to a local owner.

Beautiful little hotel rooms. We checked in around midnight and staff were friendly and quick to check us in. The room was a perfect size but the tv had been unplugged and it took us around 30 minutes to fix it as it was so close to the wall. Room was a great temperature. However the breakfast was pretty disappointing.

This is by far THE best hotel in Meadow Lake. Do yourself a favour and pay the extra hundred dollars to stay here as your experience will be on a different level. As a person who used to work and live in Meadow Lake I continue to visit once a year to stay in touch with my dear friends. Finding a decent hotel in Meadow Lake is a challenge. I have stayed in pretty much all of them and they were all disastrous. I had given up and The Woodland Inn was my last hope. I told myself that if it didn’t work out at this hotel then I would not return to Meadow Lake. But sure enough this wonderful hotel came through and I had a very satisfactory 15 nights stay.
It is not a fancy modern hotel and I was a little underwhelmed at first but as my stay progressed I started noticing more and more little details that truly impressed me! The first thing that stood out was the staff and their willingness to make my stay pleasant. I was treated like VIP even though I am just an ordinary person. In a world full of rude and mean people it sure felt good to walk in a place that respected me and treated me like a decent human being.
Lou is the person who checked me in and everything went smooth. She was very sweet, kind and courteous. I asked for a room on the top floor away from noise and people and she was able to accommodate my request. I was put in room 201. My room was impeccably, clean and spotless. I had plenty of clean towels, and the bed sheets and pillows smelled clean. I had a fridge, AC unit as well as a blow dryer that worked well. I also had a small microwave oven but unfortunately that was my only complaint. The microwave took almost 7 minutes to heat a cup of water. I asked for it to be changed, but it never got done.
The hotel has a charm that is very homely. Beautiful decorations that are unique . Owners, Anthony and Michelle are a lovely couple who take pride in their beautiful hotel and you can see them working and cleaning the premises on a daily basis.
Hotel is perfectly located close to a grocery store, coffee, shop, and restaurants. The hotel has a gym with excellent gym equipment such as a treadmill, Elliptical, bike and weight training unit not to mention AC. I enjoyed working on my fitness while staying at this hotel. And although I’m not a coffee drinker, I soon became one as their coffee was really good.
The breakfast was very limited, and was lacking of good healthy protein sources such as boiled eggs or package, cream cheese but I still was able to find healthy options, such as fruit, brown bread, and peanut butter. The cleaning staff were adorable and kind and did a great job touching up my room when I asked. The superstar of this hotel was Carissa, the lovely young woman who worked the front desk during the day. She always took the time to listen to me and talk with me. It gets lonely travelling by yourself, and I appreciated her time. She truly was in a class of her own as she was so polite and professional ! The best feature of this hotel? Super quiet! Was quiet during the day, was quiet in the evenings, and it was quiet at night. It was exactly what I needed! All and all, I highly recommend this hotel. It is a true gem and Meadow Lake is lucky to have it!
