This hotel is 100% NOT a 3 star. I think that Rochester has a messed up 'hotel rating system'. We stayed at a 2 1/2 star in North Rochester the night before we checked in to the Ramada and it was BY FAR better. Better EVERYTHING. NO ONE should ever have to feel like they are 'downgrading' hotels when they... More

This hotel is in need of a renovation. The rooms are sparsely furnished with very basic amenities, and there was an old-style tube tv rather than a flat screen. The hallway carpeting is overdue for a good cleaning. The bed was somewhat uncomfortable, and squeaky when I sat down on it, or rolled over during the night. The room did... More

We choose the Ramada in Rochester because it was the only reasonably price hotel that offered a restaurant and bar/lounge on site. When we went down to eat our dinner, we were told by the front desk that the restaurant was closed and that it was in the process of moving location to the bar/lounge area. The closest restaurant was... More

Reason for visit: I went to Rochester to be with my mom who was having heart surgery at St. Mary's Hospital. I came alone; however, my sister brought her five children. The Ramada is just a very short drive south down 52. The good: If you are coming to Rochester with children this may be the very best hotel for... More

I was pleasantly suprised by my stay at the Rochester MN Ramada in a number of ways. The staff was helpful, the location had easy access to the Mayo Hospitals and Clinics [within 5 to 10 minutes of the main building], and there was a restaurant serving 4 star meals at 2 star prices [the lamb was outstanding!].

Our stay was quiet and comfortable. We were within short distances from many sites. Rooms were clean and comfortable. More

The hotel rooms are clean. The shuttle to Mayo Clinic and St Marys is very convenient. The hotel rooms are not luxurious. Bathrooms are small and outdated, lighting in rooms is poor and heating/cooling systems are noisy and not terribly consistent. We have stayed here several times for medical appts. The children love the pool area and the restaurant is... More

I would highly recommend anyone seeking a venue for a wedding reception/dance to check out Ramada Inn's event personnel. They are an outstanding group of individuals. The chef and his group excelled with the food. We had many out-of-towners stay at the hotel and again, we had no complaints. The main floor is a little loud with kids and the... More

Pros: clean room, inexpensive -got a room through a third party, shuttle to Mayo and St Mary's as early as 6.15 am, nice employees, good breakfast, quiet. Cons: furniture quite old (but clean). I couldn't find the sign to my room (room 261, building 5) so it took me a while to locate the room. You have to drive to... More
