Hotels Near Kickin’ Axe Throwing Ltd in Brandon

Enjoyed our night. Quiet. Comfy. Slept well before our long drive heading out to our next Wyndham destination to Calgary Alberta. Then off to Vancouver for a visit with family Then back across the country to Ontario

My spouse and I were on vacation in August 2023, and our travels took us to Brandon for a night. We were using IHG points and were able to redeem points for our stay here. (We stayed here on a Monday night.) Overall, this is a great hotel... and I was told that it had opened within the past few years or so. It has the newer look/design to it. Our check-in process went smoothly, our room (#315) was clean and comfortable (and spacious), and we loved the amenities. The indoor pool and hot tub were very nice and inviting... and breakfast in the morning was excellent! Plus, we got a pretty good night's sleep too which was, of course, important. We tend to stay at quite a few Holiday Inn Expresses, and this one was definitely one of the best ones we'd ever stayed at. If I ever find myself needing a hotel in Brandon again, I would be happy to stay here again.

Room had the option of fresh air through window, or heating and cooling through the system. Bed was clean and very good mattress. Hot and full breakfast is from the inhouse restaurant and very well prepared. Staff are obviously interested in how you are doing and whether your needs are being met. I had to travel by car from Toronto out to western Canada and back. I have stayed at many average priced hotels that could offer me a bed and breakfast before getting on the road to the next place. Compared to all the others this is a gem! Best service and quality for an average price. This is the only one I felt motivated to share about on TripAdvisor. I am very impressed.

The room seemed clean and roomy. We had 2 queen beds, they were comfortable. Looked like the rooms had a few upgrades. There was no where to hang a towel. Parking lot was full every night and it was difficult to find a parking place. Breakfast area is very tiny and too many tables so crowded. It was a hot breakfast and good selection. The first morning they were out of coffee and the girl was just running to keep up. Fairly quiet; it was packed so we did hear some people in the hallway in the mornings. This hotel was close to where we were visiting so that was the reason we stayed here.

The room was clean and the front desk were smiling and helpful. The only remark is that you can hear all the conversations in the rooms on both side and the water noise everytime someone uses the faucets and tub upstairs.

We stayed here twice in one week. On the way up to Clear lake then again on the way back. Both rooms were clean. The phone did not work on the second room. We did not need it but I did tell the front desk when we were leaving. Itcould be dangerous if someone needs to call 911. The rooms had mini fridges and microwaves. No coffee maker but they had coffee in the lobby all day. The first day they were working on the room that you eat breakfast in so we had to eat in our room which is a bit awkward. They had bacon, eggs, potatoes, waffle making machine, muffins, etc. (The second day they had sausages instead of bacon and the room was open.) The food server was very friendly. They had a security guard 24 hours. Not sure if that is usual as there were peoples staying there from the fires up North. The maintenance man went above and beyond to retrieve my diamond earring from out of the sink drain when I accidently dropped it. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! They also facilitated our request for a room on the main floor as close to an exit as possible.

We (my husband & I) were on our way back from Montreal (business trip). Trip was Alberta to Montreal & back. We had been on a business/family trip to Toronto just two weeks previously. After spending our money on completely OVER PRICED Best Western/Hampton Inn hotels for most of both trips, I was ready to sleep in our truck instead of another one for our last hotel stay! We didn’t use pools/fitness rooms/laundry facilities , yet were paying ridiculous prices for those “amenities”! Not to mention that the Hampton Inn DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY BREAKFAST for $200+! We had stayed at the “CANAD INNS” in Brandon, MB on our way East for the first stop on our first trip, with our children. THAT was such a horrible experience, so much so that after bringing our experience /events to management, they refunded our hotel charge! SO, when I reluctantly looked for a hotel on the last stop of our second trip, (14 hours per day of driving each way for 6-8 days), even though I was seriously considering sleeping in our truck to avoid yet another high priced hotel stay, I FOUND THIS “MOTEL 6” in Brandon, MB! From the wonderful GREETING by both front desk (male) attendants, to the bowl of fresh fruit offered at front desk at check in/check out, to the AMAZING/CLEAN/SPACIOUS HOTEL ROOM, to the SOFT/FLUFFY/XTRA LARGE BATH TOWELS, to the FREE, WELL STOCKED BREAKFAST, to the SUPER LARGE PARKING LOT both for domestic & large commercial trucks (which we had one of each), I ONLY WISH I HAD FOUND THIS HOTEL AT THE BEGINNING OF OUR FIRST TRIP! When I called to inquire for a room (we couldn’t pre-book on our way back as the condition of the commercial truck we purchased was unsure), the front desk stated they were out of rooms with one king/queen bed, so he could offer Us a room with TWO Queen beds for same price! SOLD! We had been paying $150-200-+ for 13 (2 separate trips) of our previous hotel room stays! MOTEL 6 came to $115 all in! I am so in regret for having not found MOTEL 6 to have been able to (when applicable) stay at this hotel (it’s a hotel, not motel as in name), for most of our stays! THANK YOU to the GM of this hotel (whom I believe was the one who checked Us in, as we came in just before 10pm & he was there the next morning again at our checkout!)! You & your other front desk staff, both at check in & check out, made Us feel WELCOME whereas many of the front desk staff at many of our previous hotel stays (for $150-200+?) DID NOT DO SO! I have since told family members of mine in Manitoba about this hotel & asked them to spread the word about this wonderful MOTEL 6! (If they don’t require many amenities for a stay)! We travel to MB to visit family members (not as much as we should), & we will be sure to ONLY be staying at this MOTEL 6 in Brandon, MB, when we require!

We love staying at the Best Western Hotels because we always get great service, good price for the stay, and we love the included hot breakfast with our stay. The kids love the waterslide and the swimming pool. This location has a taller/bigger/faster waterslide vs some of the other Manitoba locations. We love the new coffee machine at the front desk that is available 24/7, it does have decaf options, and hot chocolate for the kids! The pet rate is a bit high at $25, and this hotel is a bit on the pricier side compared to other BW locations. The rooms are always very clean, and newer looking, the staff is always very helpful and nice. We never had any issues with service at a Best Western hotel. This location also has lots of grassy area near by to take your pet out . Conveniently located on the #1 HWY and there are some fast food places walking distance.
