Aurora Bayside Inn

The exterior of the Aurora Bayside Inn at sunset in the summer by the Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories.

Located on the shore of Great Slave Lake, the 5th largest in North America, and a short walk from Pilots Monument, where a great panorama of the city can be enjoyed. We are conscientious about our guest’s experiences staying at the Inn. We will do whatever we can to enhance the enjoyment of your stay!

In the summertime, the Inn’s backyard and floating dock offer a natural and peaceful setting to relax and take in the view of the lake and the wilderness beyond. During the winter months, the Inn’s lakeside location provides the dark skies desired for viewing the awe-inspiring northern lights. Each of the Inn’s suites has lake views and access to the dock and property, allowing guests to enjoy the natural environment without sacrificing proximity to the city. Additionally, guests can enjoy a conveniently located, independently owned and operated Flamecraft Grill ‘N’ Chill restaurant, located on the ground floor of the main building. The restaurant is currently open for lunch and dinner from 11am to 9pm (10pm on Fridays and Saturdays), 7 days a week.

Conveniently close to downtown and only 12 minutes from the airport, we are located in the unique and eclectic neighborhood of Old Town. Old Town has plenty to offer for those looking for art, water-recreation, food, shopping, culture and scenic lookouts. There is plenty to do and see right outside the front door of the Aurora Bayside Inn!

We offer three distinct room styles: the Executive Suite, Northern Skies, and Lakeview learn more and book now.
