Additionally, all the utensils and cooking instruments were easy to find and to use. The bathroom was very spacious with plenty of good mirror space. My only complaint was that I wished the beds had more blankets on them, but despite that, I slept very well.” – Noah Kegley

“My husband I just returned home from our visit to the North Pole Hotel. We found it to be well maintained. The continental breakfast was limited but it was enough to satisfy an early riser. The entire staff were kind and helped us with any questions we had. It was also nice that it is located near a grocery store and has several restaurants within walking distance. I look forward to a future stay.” – Lora Bolt
