Everyone was exceptionally helpful, fantastic service. You couldn't find a better location! And the fact that it's part of the Skyway and Subway to most of the major Mayo buildings was perfect - especially since the 14 inches of snow in May were slightly a surprise. Either way, rain, snow or shine it was great having access to the mall,... More

Rochester can be stressful for families who need the kind of help only Mayo Clinics can provide. The staff at this Holiday Inn (located just 2 blocks from the clinic) went out of their way to be sure our guests were comfortable and treated them like true friends (when their friends could not be with them) on this difficult but...

This hotel has recently been remodeled, but changes were superficial, and it still shows its age. Heating/air systems are expensive to replace, but they can make a big difference in how travelers view their rooms, especially when they don't work correctly. Rooms are a nice size, but bathrooms are small and dated, and overall, the remodel din't seem to address... More

Every person in this hotel, from the front desk to the bar and restaurant, were very service oriented. They worked hard to make sure we were happy. The room was fairly typical, although the walls were extremely thin. We could hear our neighbor's television for the majority of our stay. The location is wonderful. Everything is within walking distance and... More

Stayed here a night in April 2013. Location was good in downtown Rochester and there was a good rate online for a weekend night. Hotel apparently has been recently renovated so decor was updated. First room we were in had stains on the sheets... So I went back downstairs and got another room from the front counter. Second room we... More

Although this hotel is conveniently located with reference to Mayo Clinic, the facility itself and the service we received were unacceptable. Heating system not working properly (overheated at night with non-working thermostat--no AC to counter the heat--staff suggested that we open the window if we were hot). No hot water in the morning, staff relayed that it would be working... More

I reserved a block of rooms for a group coming to town for a conference. They were all delighted with their rooms and the location and the hot breakfast was a huge bonus. I had people coming up and telling me how great it was. They really liked being in the hub of downtown Rochester, on the skyway to businesses... More

The hotel is pretty nice, room was clean and spacious, lobby was decent and the restaurant was good. The pool looked nice although (sizeable) we didn't swim in it. The hotel is convenient to dowtown shopping and restaurants as well as the clinic - just a short 15 minute walk through the skywalk.

For the price this hotel is great if you're visiting Mayo for anything and are able to walk a couple of blocks to the clinic. I was there for an interview so it was great for me. The hotel is sort of awkward with the lobby on the second floor and feels a little dead most of the time, but... More
