This hotel is everything you'd expect from a Best Western. Very cookie cutter, but obviously you should not expect a boutique hotel in northern ontario. Furniture and wall coverings a bit dated but very clean. Bed was phenomenal, top notch. Very nice, helpful staff. Extremely reasonably priced. Will def. stay there again when visiting Northern ontario. This has to be... More

Best Hotel "not" in Timmins. I'd grown so tired of dirty, worn out rooms in Timmins I'd stay here and drive into Timmins on business. Cochrane is a tired town itself but this BW although not a Castle, had clean rooms and in good condition so by far better than most in the North. If you are just passing through... More

clean comfortable rooms, good location close to the snowmobile trail and local restaurants. The only complaints would be that the hot tub was disgusting and when mentioned to the front desk, he blamed us because we were snowmobilers. (saying it was oil) It would generally be assumed that a response closer to "we will take care of it" would have... More

The room was clean and reasonably priced. You pay for what you get. Bed was very soft and if your in the back you can't hear the front street traffic. Best motel in Cochrane.

Stayed in a King Bed suite. The room is a good size as is the bed, but all the furnishings are what I would call "done on the cheap" to meet the bare minimum required in a hotel room. Skimpy towels, a minute bar of soap in the bathroom and some foul smelling soap and shampoo ibn a fixed wall... More

I recently spent three nights at this hotel and was very pleased with the accomodations. The building seems very dated from the outside, but the rooms are nice furnished, well appointed and had extremely comfortable beds and linens. Very large sizes for both the bathroom and bedroom areas. Our room had a large sized mini fridge which was very convenient,... More

Clean, modern amenities, friendly staff, accross the road from the train station if you're venturing up the coast. Really about the only solid choice in cochrane.

We stopped there while being on a snowmobiles trip. The place was very charming, beds are really comfy and the continental breakfast was just what we need for a quick leave. Their rooms were nice and clean. And the staff were friendly and helpful, even the housekeeping staff always had a smile. It felt warm and welcoming!

Usually a nice place to stay, but we were absolutely appalled when we found an extra 150.00 charge that was added to our credit card about a month later. I called the hotel to find that they had THOUGHT a dog was in our room because they saw us outside with a friend who had a dog. When I called... More

This is a newer hotel in the Cochrane area and probably the best . Clean and large rooms. Only complaint is that the hotel is located in a shady part of town (off main street). Lots of kids hanging around with not much to do (other than to vandalize). I had my car damaged by in the hotel parking lot..
