Four Points by Sheraton Winnipeg International Airport Best of IgoUgo

Hotel | "Four Points by Sheraton Winnipeg"

Quote:
This hotel is located right at airport; just walk the ramp to check-in. It is ideal for those awful early-morning flights. Just check-in, head back to the room, and relax: all flights departure/arrivals are on screens in the lobby and TV in the room. It is a superior place, with a restaurant, pool, and bar, along with the Sheraton service you expect.

Place Louis Riel Suite Hotel Best of IgoUgo

Hotel | "Place Lous Riel"

Quote:
This tired-looking hotel has become rundown in recent years. The lobby looks like the rough north end of the city with rough, filthy people hanging around with nothing better to do. The hallways are dark and dingy elevators you take at your own risk, if they work at all. Staff members are unskilled and uncaring. Rooms are basic, bare, and grim, with old, cheap furniture. This used to be a fine hotel, but this place needs a wrecking ball. Do the city of Winnipeg a favour by losing it. This expensive all-suite hotel is too dangerous to stay in due to the people that hang around there.
