Staff was 10/10. Room was great, building was clean and quiet. Very accommodating! Will stay here again. Best hotel for the best price in Slave Lake by far.
This hotel is ok at this price point.
The building is very worn but the staff nice and the breakfast great
One of the best cups of coffee on our trip so far .
The Big Lake Inn is located close to shopping and eating establishments. The front staff were very polite and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful spacious rooms! Friendly staff. Super comfortable bed. I’ll be back in a month or so for work and I will definitely be coming back here. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Staff were super friendly and helpful. Main areas are kept modern and clean. Room was dated but clean. TV did not work properly despite having it looked at. Very inconvenient, the volume kept shutting off.
Great stay! Very clean, suites are up to date and newly renovated with really nice finishes. The hotel was quiet and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Overall a great experience and would definitely recommend and stay here again.
Hotel was decent. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Room was a bit noisy being on the first floor. Could hear air conditioning kicking on incrementally throughout the night. The continental breakfast was also not very good. Probably wouldn’t stay here again but it was fine.

The room we were in was OK but the bathroom was horrible. The toilet had a terrible lean and the floor was crooked. The towel rack had more rust on it than metal. The shower head sprayed water all over. Beds and pillow were comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful with places to eat.

Good price. Ok hotel with excellent breakfast
Price was best in town. Older building and some water issues toilet running and shower draining slow. Clean and staff was friendly. Continental breakfast was great. Hot eggs, has browns, ham, sausage, bacon, and lots of cold food also.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room is neglected and old. The heating system doesn’t allow setting a temperature or using a thermostat and is very noisy. The showerhead is fixed to the wall and sprays in all directions. The sound insulation is poor, and noise from neighboring rooms makes it hard to sleep.
The staff is Friendly and welcoming.
It was a great hotel for the price, rooms were clean and had a small induction stove kid friendly accomodations will. Highly reccomend if you are on a budget.
