Detailed Reviews
Spouse & I stayed here 4 nights during a nature tour in Churchill. As a previous Trip Advisor reviewer (MarshWall) states this is the perfect place to stay when on nature tours in Churchill. It is not elegant or swanky, but very clean and the rooms well apportioned. Our room (and I think all) had a small fridge, microwave, free wireless internet access, very comfortable beds (we had 2), a nice TV, a recycling bin, and an immaculate well apportioned bathroom urging you to reuse your towels, etc, etc. The Seaport was quite environmentally friendly. There was also a computer available in the lobby 24/7. There is a good restaurant in the hotel– not gourmet- but with good food; ate several breakfasts, a dinner and 1 or 2 lunches there. This is a great place to stay, right in the heart of Churchill. What more could you want when you are out most of the day and some evenings and need a clean efficient place to rest and relax. I would certainly stay here again if in Churchill

We just spent 2 nights in Churchill after 2 nights train ride from Winnipeg. We took a chance on traveling to Churchill to see Polar Bears before official Polar Bears season. Because that, we had more choices in lodging. I am glad we chose Seaport. Though, it is not very impressive at all on the outside....warehouse style, but the rooms are very modern, clean, with all amenities. The service is family-like, quick, and friendly. We had Canadian staff as well as from Korea. They all are very competent and no issue with English speaking. Seaport has restaurant service, and the foods are very good. Because we arrived in Churchill prior to Ploar Bears season, we had no problem with booking and the price is much much more reasonable. We would choose Seaport again, it is just a short walking distance from the train station. Matter of fact, nothing is far from the train station...all are within walking distance. Like the bank, post and the only liquor store are just at the back of Seaport.

Swanky accommodation in Churchill would be out of character and quite unnecessary given that we were there mainly to be out all day watching wildlife and in the evenings taking in whatever insights we could of fascinating local culture organised by our tour company.
The Seaport is absolutely fine for this purpose. The room had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean and tidy. The hotel meals were simple and hearty. We expecially enjoyed breakfasts under the direction of the formidable Wanda.
Everything was done well and efficiently. To be recommended.

You are in Churchill to see the bears (or Beluga). Not to enjoy a comfortable hotel. Basic is as good as you can get. And the Seaport is fine. It has its own cafe and restaurant. Centre of town; so quite convenient.

We were supposed to be staying here but there was a problem with the heating so we had to move before actually staying a night, but the bedroom we had been assigned was spacious and comfortable with a bath. We ate most lunches and dinners here and the food was good with friendly service.

We stayed 3 nights for a polar bear tour. Every guest was there for the same reason. This being the case, accommodation was secondary in this really remote town (even for Canada). Simply a base for bear viewing.
The hotel was warm, our room small but adequate as were the facilities. Food just about ok and strict group dining times (dinner at 5.30pm) were necessitated by the high season demand.

We stayed at the Seaport Hotel for 3 nights as part of a NatHab polar bear tour. The hotel is small, cozy, and challenged by the inundation of tourists during the polar bear season. The housekeeping, dining room, and reception staff are all friendly and try to be helpful. The rooms are very basic, which is good for Churchill accommodations, so one needs to lower expectations about accommodations and focus on the real reason for the visit -- polar bears. The room was generally clean, but for some reason, the mugs and glasses were dirty when we first arrived and even through daily use, was replaced or put back, apparently wiped but not cleaned. The heating is central even though there is a thermostat in the room, so heat is difficult to control. They offer laundry service upon request, and the charge for a "load" of wash was reasonable and returned the same day folded and clean. If you are wondering why we needed to do laundry -- layers of clothing were needed for the cold, but it got very warm and sweaty when we were indoors or on the polar rover.
Our room was quiet overlooking a side street. We didn't hear any noise from our first floor room, and even didn't hear the siren or crackle gun shots indicating polar bears in the town. The hotel exterior lights are on all night, so we had to draw our curtains. We kept looking for wildlife out our window but weren't lucky enough to see anything -- although other members of our tour group did so.
The hotel has one of 3 restaurants in the town. The breakfast is a small buffet of canned/ some fresh fruits, scrambled eggs, meat selection, oatmeal, cereal, juice, muffins/toast, coffee/tea. There is an egg station but with only one person preparing the eggs, and the rush of guests trying to eat and leave at the same time, this option had limited appeal. The staff worked hard to keep up with the crowd but timely replenishment of food was sometimes a problem. The menu for lunch and dinner offered a limited selection, and was generally better than average, considering the challenges and expense of air shipment of fresh food to the town. While organized tour groups seemed to dominate the hotel, there also appeared to have other guests in the dining room, perhaps local townsfolk or independent travelers. There is a bar and live music on Fridays but we were so tired after a full day on the tundra that we didn't check this out.
In short, don't expect accommodations at even a 3* level in this remote location, but the hotel provided acceptable accommodation and food service, enhanced by hardworking and friendly staff. And, most importantly, we saw over 30 polar bears, several up close and in our faces -- well worth the trip!

This is a no frills hotel in a remote frontier town that provides more than expected. The rooms are very comfortable, clean and spacious enough with all the amenities you may need. Wifi is available at reasonable speed and we really appreciated the coffee maker. The restaurant was good. We enjoyed the breakfasts and had a fairly good dinner. The bar was a great spot to socialize in without impacting on the guest room area. It is perfectly located in the center of town.

Irene, Day Manager, picked us up at the airport. In spite of needing to cover the desk, she took the time to give us a bit of a tour en route to the hotel to see if we could spot a polar bear (even though we came primarily to watch whales). She gave us good information about the area and was available to help throughout our stay. The hotel has been updated and has a restaurant and bar available on premises. The facility is as nice as the on-site people.

A simple hotel, with all the basics. Room was clean and comfortable. Had what I needed - a comfy bed, a clean bathroom, a mini fridge, a TV, and free wi-fi. The attached restaurant is average. 100% satisfied.
