We stay at the Pelican Inn every year when we come for the women's hockey tournament. The hotel is well-run and very clean. The rooms are a bit older with very firm beds, but it is safe, clean, and comfortable. I have a feeling they separated us from the other guests as no one complained about our evening socialization. I thought this was a very smart move and made our stay that much more enjoyable. Thanks Pelican Inn for always welcoming us back with warm and comfortable rooms.

I stayed here for three nights while travelling for work. The room was outdated, furniture is old and the bed is hard. But they make up for the accommodations with excellent service. The front desk staff are friendly and helpful. Housekeeping had the room spotless and replenished coffee and brought fresh towels everyday. They also provide a continental breakfast that was very convenient. There is also a restaurant that serves a full breakfast for an extra charge. The food at the restaurant is quite good. I also liked that the hall to the rooms is locked at night and you need a room key to get near the rooms. I appreciated this extra bit of safety. The hotel has everything going for it but the rooms need to be updated. The website has photos of renovated rooms so maybe they are in the process of renovating. Overall I enjoyed my stay and will return. …

I used to stay at this hotel for work since 2005. I have stayed since 2010 and I returned to find the same furniture, bedspreads, etc. The room is dated, the in the room wouldn't work. I had to remove all the blankets from one bed and add to the other. I left a note about the heat and nothing. I then had to stay for an extra night and was told there was lots of space and was asked my room number. Then I was told I would have to check out and re-check in because someone else was in that room for my third night. I asked if they could just be put in the room where I was going to be assigned and the answer was no. I travel a lot to Fort Smith for work and I'm sorry I can't do this again.

Thank you for your comments, I sincerely apologize that your stay was not satisfactory. We have already made steps to improve and upgrade our rooms, we do realize they are dated and we are doing our best to fix that. This year we have currently completed 10 new suites on the first floor in the main building, these have all new furniture, fixtures and bedding. Please ask for one of these rooms for your next stay. I am unclear about the checking in and checking out misunderstanding, please give me the details in an email and send to:manager@pelicanrapidsinn.ca, so that I can follow up with the staff on shift and correct any training issues that need to be addressed. Thank you for your comments, I do hope you will come stay with us again so we can try to fix some of the concerns you pointed out. Kindest regards, Dana Fergusson Owner

The staff at this hotel are so friendly and accommodating. The hotel was very clean and our room was spacious. The breakfast included was sketchy as many early risers seemed to empty the fridge - so to speak. The restaurant which opens at 7:30am was a better bet, but not included in the price of the room.

The Pelican Rapids Inn is a clean basic motel in the centre of town. Good location and secure. Did not try the restaurant. Ample parking. Not much information at the Inn on events or things to see nearby.
