Wyndham Garden Winnipeg Airport
Owned by the Long Plain First Nation and located on Treaty 1 Territory on Long Plain Madison Reserve—the city's
first urban reserve—this 132-room property is simply stunning. Its curved design reflects the circle, a sacred shape
indicating interconnectivity and Indigenous art is featured throughout the hotel. Amenities include Manoomin
Restaurant (which means 'wild rice' in Ojibway) and Onishkaan Café; bilingual signage and service in Ojibway and
English; a shop featuring locally made Indigenous gifts; a knowledge keepers' gathering room for Elders; and spaces
built specifically for ceremony.
