Nova Inn Acheson

What guests think

Across reviews, Nova Inn Acheson is praised for clean, quiet rooms, friendly front desk service, and good value, with convenient highway access and an attached pub, though several guests note dated spaces, lingering smoke smells, and occasional noise from trucks.

Many guests also like the attached Duke's bar and grill for tasty, fairly priced meals, but note early closing and no included breakfast. Housekeeping and maintenance are inconsistent, with missed room refreshes and issues like unflushed toilets, broken lights, or weak follow-up on problems. Located in an industrial truck-stop area away from city amenities, it suits value-focused travelers seeking a simple, convenient overnight stay.

Terrific staff, they were all very friendly, the hotel however was horrible. Cigarette burns in all of the linens, requested smoke free room but was certainly not given one. I was so stuffed up and had a headache for the entirety of my stay because of the strong cigarette odour. Was dirty having finding little black hairs amongst the towels, face cloths, pillows, bathtub and piling up in the bathroom corners.. extremely dusty and yellow smoke damage throughout the whole room. Was very loud, could not sleep with all the loud banging and semi trucks coming/going constantly. The "Duke's Bar & Grill" attached to it was amazing though definitely worth checking that out, delectable food!

Like the place but when I got in late, I went to have a shower it wouldn’t work. Just the bath faucet worked. Next morning I told the front desk upon check out. No discount or anything just. “ we’ll look at it”. Not the best way to deal with an issue that compromised someone’s stay. Might go back again and see if it’s a better experience… might not.

Well, you get what you pay for. There’s nothing in this area - not even a Tim Hortons or anything similar. All you can do at this hotel is sleep for the night; you’ll need to go into the city for pretty much everything else.

They don't do regular housekeeping so I had to put a box of garbage in the hallway and also requested new towels, so left those in the hallway as well.... Reasonably priced, great amenities with a lounge, pizza available and it was good! Good! Dukes... Husky House restaurant right beside and easy to get around Edmonton from the hotel location. Would stay again. Nice to have a fridge and microwave.... Telus optic TV was good....

I found the Nova Inn to be acceptable but nothing special. The Inn is located in the middle of an industrial / truck stop area. It's convenient from the driving standpoint, but hardly a place to go for the view. The Inn seems a bit worn. There are some things (outside) that need repair (e.g., some one ran into the concrete blocks around the front door pillars, no telling how long ago). The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The common areas were plain but clean. My room was large, clean, and well-maintained. I knew it when I booked the room, but: There is no breakfast included, nor is the neighboring restaurant open for breakfast. Net: It was OK, but not a place for a special trip.

We checked if the hotel was pet friendly. Hotels.com said it was. But there was no box to tick to indicate one was actually traveling with a pet. Upon arrival, we were asked for a pet deposit, no problem, just was not disclosed on Hotels.com. Then we were informed that only smoking rooms were available and that the only pet friendly rooms were smoking rooms. Again - not disclosed on Hotels.com. We ordered pizza from the diner next door “Dukes” - charged us $54CAD for two pizzas that came out of a supermarket frozen pizza box which they then heated in an oven. Did not enjoy our stay.
