Whatever you do don't take stair way back to your room because you will end up outdoors in a wet bathing suit in freezing. and... More

Located downtown on the waterfront this hotel is well placed to be in the downtown area. Our room faced the harbour, and we had an easy walk to restaurants in the area. The breakfast area is modern and the buffet was very good.

The hotel was very average. The room was very clean. They offered (and labeled) a couple of pillow options which was nice. The bathroom was small, the kind you would not want 2 people in there at the same time. It definitely was an older design. Free Internet worked well with good speed. Only real pet peeve was the fact... More

We stayed at this hotel on June 1st after a long day of apartment hunting for our daughter who is going to Queens in September. We showed up figuring that we had a reservation in a very full hotel and find out that when I booked it I picked the wrong date. They had a room for us but had... More

Booked this hotel because it was the best price compared to other hotels in the same area. The location is excellent to enjoy shopping, bars, restaurants and is right next to the water. It was very easy to park in a lot opposite the hotel. The room was okay but we were most excited about the private balcony overlooking the... More

The Hotel is located right downtown on the waterfront, at the end of the main shopping area downtown. Very walkable to stores, restaurants, bars etc. Parking is in a lot beside the hotel. The rooms are classic, nicely appointed, clean and spacious. We had a room facing the lake, which gave a lovely view and we could see the windmill... More

We just stayed here this past weekend as my daughter was in a competition. I chose this through Hotwire, and got a great rate. The check in was quick, and friendly. The parking was way better than the other hotel I stayed at, the Raddisson. Although it is $14.00 a night, the location is key, so it was worth it.... More

My husband and I chose this hotel because of its location. It is right on the waterfront across the street from the City Hall. Our balcony actually overlooked the ferry terminal. So far, it sounds perfect, doesn't it? Well, unfortunately, a few things marred the experience. One, being non-smokers ourselves, who wants to sit on their balcony breathing in smoke?... More
