Parkway Motel

We stayed at this lovely motel for one night on a road trip from Southern Ontario to Western Canada. |Our room was very clean, well decorated and newly renovated - great bathroom with all new fixtures and comfortable beds. Coffee station and numerous other nice little touches in the room. Lawn chairs and self-serve Bbq available outdoors if you want to cook dinner.|The owner was pleasant to deal with over the phone when I made reservations and was helpful when we arrived - made excellent recommendations for where to eat in town, and what to see. |This place is definitely a step above your ordinary roadside motel - highly recommend it!

Extremely clean, spacious and inviting rooms. The owner is friendly and very helpful. So many little personal touches in our room. First time I’ve stayed here but my husband has stayed here twice before and he told me I would really like this place. He was right! ( don’t tell him I said that !!!!). We will definitely stay here again.

The ONLY thing keeping this from a full 5 stars from my menopausal self is the lack of an air conditioner. Coming from Sault Ste Marie, en route to Thunder Bay, we wanted to stay near Wawa. This particular place is about 10min before the Wawa turn off & we initially drove right by it, as we thought it would be in Wawa proper. Watch for the flags on the left (before Wawa) coming from Sault Ste Maire or the right (after Wawa) coming from Thunder Bay. Check in was fast and easy (10pm arrival) & staff were accommodating/ friendly. The rooms were EXCEPTIONALLY clean, well-decorated & full of character + all the little details. If I'd had Canadian cash on me, I'd absolutely have tipped housekeeping. The rooms were both right at $100ea, 1Q (room 20) room & a 2Q (room 19), with a bistro table between. It is truly motel style, park at your door & uses real keys, not digital. There is an amazing area with a grill and chairs which just so happens to face the sunrise! All in all, we loved this stop & will absolutely stay again, on a not too hot date ; )

This is the most comfortable motel in the area. The owners are polite and friendly . Rooms are spacious and well maintained. There is plenty of area to walk the dog , ice machine - ice bucket and wine glasses are supplied . There is shampoo , conditioner in dispenser rather than little bottles or packets. Coffee maker with real mugs and water glasses . Tv has full satellite service and great wifi and all at a great price !

We stopped here for the night with 2 little dogs. They have a bbq that is available for guests to use. The lady at the front office was super nice and the room was top notch. Rooms are carpeted and very well maintained. I would go out of my way next time to support this place next time through.

Super clean. Very comfortable. Great showers. Bring your own food or be prepared to drive into town. No snacks, no breakfast, not even sure if there were machines. Everything else was great.

Third or fourth time staying here. Rooms are immaculate every time and the owners are amazing. This time we trailered our bike down and they are letting us leave our truck and trailer here while we carry on with our bike trip. Truly great hosts.

We had a beautiful, comfortable and clean room. The beds were comfy and so inviting. Check in was quick and the staff very friendly and hospitable. We travel with our large dog, who was greeted with smiles and kindness. Lots of room for her for walking and pottying. The room was nice and cool so the lack of A/c was a non-issue. The windows were open all night and we did not hear traffic. We will definitely return. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Awesome Motel. Super clean, well decorated & renovated. The owners live on site and fully maintain the place really well. The bed was very comfortable & it had everything we needed (bar fridge/freeser, microwave, coffee maker). Nice scenery around & room had it's own internet (worked very well). I highly recommend this place.

This place was awesome. Sparkling clean when I arrived and the front desk staff whom I'm assuming was the owner was very friendly and welcoming. The wifi was a bit spotty and didn't work for an entire day and night I was there. This was difficult as I was traveling internationally and don't have cellular data and therefore rely on having good wifi at my hotel to research things to do in the area. I didn't bother knocking off a star for this though - mostly because everything else was awesome. I would definitely stay again.

I stayed one night at the Parkway Motel on Monday, February 26th. I was driving from Edmonton to the Peterborough area of Ontario. Based on a review of the map the day before, it looked like Wawa, ON was the best place to spend my third night of the trip. Because I had 3 cats with me, I called ahead to book a motel as I needed a pet-friendly room. I actually had to contact a number of motels in Wawa before I found one that (a) answered the phone, (b) had a pet-friendly room available, and (c) was actually open in the winter. Thankfully I found Parkway as they had all three! A note to future visitors ... the Parkway Motel is on Highway 17 just south of the exit to Wawa. It isn't in the main part of Wawa. Therefore, if you want food or need gas, you might want to stop and do those things before going to the motel. I ended up having to backtrack in order to get dinner the night I checked in. And then I had to do the same thing to get gas the next day. There's almost nothing between the Parkway Motel and Lake Superior Provincial Park once you're on the road. Making a reservation and checking into the motel was​ super easy. The owner was very nice and friendly. The room I got was very nice and clean and had everything I needed. And the parking lot was plowed really well, making parking in front of the room super easy. All 3 cats liked the room and were on their best behaviour (as they always are). And bringing stuff to/from the car was easy because I could park right outside the door. One thing I was super impressed with, which may seem funny, was the water pressure in the shower. It was excellent! Sometimes the showers in hotels are less than perfect, but this shower was awesome! Check-out consisted of leaving my key in my room when I left, so I didn't need to go back to the office. That was very convenient. Overall, I would highly recommend this motel if you're staying in Wawa. Although I'm sure the whole experience would be much nicer if it were the summer, but I did enjoy my winter stay and am grateful they were open in the winter (as many places are not).

One of the cleanest Motels I have ever stayed in. The host is very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are quiet and the bed is comfortable and fresh. Bathroom is updated and very clean as well. Yes I would stay here every time we are in the Wawa area! The only thing to be aware of on a hot day is that there isn't an air conditioner installed. Our room cooled down nicely at sundown.

Kind people, clean rooms. The Parkway Motel staff were very kind & kept the office open late for us when we arrived after office hours. The room we stayed in was clean and well-kept - one queen (?) bed, couch, shower & toilet area seperate from the sink. Nothing fancy, but it does the trick for a good night's sleep. Would recommend if in the area.

Amazingly clean and quiet little place. Owners are at desk and sharp negotiators. Nice gas grill to cook with and she is drying our beach towels from the lake today. They invested in updates and it shows.

Clean and respectable The place is very well maintained by a lovely Polish couple. The rooms are well-decorated, with two queen (double?) beds, a large bathroom area with separated sink and toilet/shower area which makes sharing a room with a family a lot easier. Room comes with microwave and minifridge (w freezer). The room was very clean and well-kept. Would highly recommend. We booked ahead of time, and the owner thankfully stayed up and open till 11 to make sure she was there for us. I spent $100 taxes included for the night

Wonderful place to stay! Very up-to-date! Ultra clean rooms and welcoming/friendly owners! Soft water for showers is great! Microwave, coffee maker, 32" flat screen TV, refrigerator, table and chairs to eat meals or play cards! Refrigerator actually freezes your ice packs for coolers! We will be back to stay at this A++++ motel!
