We arrived early evening and had to call a number for someone to check us in, which was fairly quick. Very basic, clean room with slanted floors, as one would expect in a building this old. They’ve lots of old things and displays to check out in the hallways. Checkout was tossing the key into a bowl on the counter. We recommend wandering up to The Grenada for dinner.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The pictures on the wall told the story about the hotel and where it all began. My room was lovely, spacious and very clean. The bedding had style. I really enjoyed my stay and will stay there again.

We were four, wanting to stay for two nights. We didin't get what the website offered at all. Dirty, stinky carpet, uneven floor with misterious sounds (like the house would collapse soon), windows couldn't be opened more than a few centimeters. "Restaurant" not very clean, too. So, the hotel is really old, for north american proportions, nad it has to find an investor or should be demolished. Although, I've seen some really nice rooms, when walking down the corridor. Finally we just stayed for one night and found another hotel for us.

I’m sure this hotel, in its glory days, was a site to behold. It reminds me of an old hotel from a spooky movie. Staircases closed off, rooms with “ do not trespass” , and just various other vacant delinquent areas of the property that don’t allow me to give it more than 1 star. I don’t want to say too much negative as I’m sure the old hotel was majestic in her glory years and out of respect I shall not be insulting. Farewell Rodmay

The staff are great, my room was rough but clean. Interesting place to stay the night. In its prime this place looks like it was a beautiful historic hotel on the water. Today it has the historic feel but it’s tired and rundown. It needs a lot of time and money to restore, I hope it gets it I really liked the building.

This hotel is quite shocking upon arrival: decor, view from my room, and state. But to be honest the shower was hot, my room was clean, and the staff at check-in was friendly. I would not suggest staying here with the family, but on business if you wanted to stay in Townsite it served its purpose.

The Rodmay is a little past it’s prime, but the rooms are clean, the price is right, showers are hot, and the brewery is within walking distance. The heritage building has some character, and would be nice to see restored. When checking in - enter at the rear and use the liquor store (clerk works from 3 - 11pm and doubles for both the lobby and beer/wine shop).

A nice Historic Hotel and surrounding area, a treat to wander around and see all the local history. The Hotel itself, although old, still holds visions of it's past glory. The Hotel is undergoing renovations and upgrades, a long process to keep in mind, if you are partial to a rustic setting. The room we stayed in was clean, comfortable, good value for the money with ample toiletry supplies. Depending on the weather, the proximity to the Pulp Mill could be an issue for air quality. The Continental Breakfast was very nice and the Staff were friendly and courteous.

We booked in here the night before we departed onto the Sunshine Coast Trail. I would recommend staying elsewhere if you are doing the same. The room is awkward, the bed is saggy and totally uncomfortable. The toiled didn't really properly flush. The entire hotel reminded me of a dingy old apartment. I don't have super high standards, but this wasn't worth the $60 we spent. Kudos to the amazing staff who checked us in (later at night as we took a ferry from the island). He even 'upgraded' us, which was nice as I'd heard some of the rooms could be loud. We stayed in room 1, on the front side of the building. There is so much character in this place and it has total Twin Peaks vibes, but it honestly loses all of it's charm in the old and dingy decor and beds that sink completely in the middle. So sorry to give this review. Take your money elsewhere.…

We had booked this hotel on the basis of existing reviews which are either terribly outdated or describe a different season here. While there are some obvious draws if you happen to be an historian or are interested in how to use heritage details in renovations, that might make this an interesting stay. The central lobby and staircase themselves are worth a visit. There are many historical photos on display, exhibiting the past century since the Rodmay was built, as well as vintage chairs in rooms and hallways, and other items from years past. The current owner / management has included welcome details in the room in which we stayed - ceramic mugs for the coffee maker, and real glasses in the bathroom, as well as a pair of wine glasses (something about which I have commented favourably in other reviews). There was a good supply of toiletries available for our use, which was lovely. Contrary to one review, there was no breakfast available, nor did we ever see any staff beyond our check-in. There is a large, beautifully furnished room which looked like a dining room (maybe a great place for a reception) but everything was closed. There was a chain across the staircase leading to the third floor with a "no trespassing" sign. While our room was clean and odour-free (very important!) it showed signs of neglect. Grouting in shower was black with mildew, pillows and blanket were in desperate need of replacement. As one previous reviewer mentioned, grubby window ledges and cracked window panes were also present. The hot water issue continues. Then there was the noise! If you are a pub patron, visiting the adjacent one Friday and Saturday night would be a good idea until well after midnight if you want a peaceful sleep afterwards. Not before... Present management may indeed be in the process of updating / renovating, and this is certainly badly needed, but there are simple details that could easily be improved at low cost. Even including a box of Kleenex and more than one hangar would also be a nice touch. We don't intend a return visit.…
