10min walk to downtown Elora. Next door to pizza, Subway and Chinese food. Microwave oven in room. Free parking. Cigarette smoke smell throughout the corridors. 5min walk to casino. No coffee maker in room.
We wanted to stay overnight in Elora, inexpensively. So we found the Village Inn and it is exactly as you would expect for a budget stay. The room is a comfortable size, beds are comfortable. The room was clean, sheets/towels/pillows good. The room could use an update (a bit of chipped paint, older bedspreads etc), but that is why you are having an inexpensive stay. All of the expected amenities are there and fine (TV, fridge, microwave, soaps, clock). There is coffee and juice in the front lobby in the morning, along with granola bars and fruit. Since I didn't expect brekkie, this was a bonus. The hotel is located within 1/2 KM of downtown Elora, an easy walk on a nice day. Overall, we were quite happy with our stay. This isn't the Ritz, but you're not paying for the Ritz. If you want a comfortable, well located hotel with few frills but all of the essentials, you're home!…
Dumpy with too many broken things to mention. Said good morning to the front desk guy with zero reply. Too busy watching something on his phone at volume 11. So you get a Meh attitude with less than mediocre accommodations. Oh did I mention the dirty towels? Gross.
I decided to visit the Elora Gorge as well as the town of Elora. Initially this property was shown as sold out. I called the property directly and was advised there had been a cancelation and 1 room was available. The property is well located within walking distance of the Elora Gorge and downtown Elora. It is a family owned/ run motel which appears to have been recently renovated. The room was very clean, well appointed with fridge/ microwave, nice TV, a desk and chair to do work/ eat .Washroom was very clean with sufficient toiletries/ towels etc. The bed was very comfortable and there was a lounge chair. I had a restful night with no disturbances from other guests. While breakfast is not included there is fresh coffee/ orange juice/ bananas/ granola bars complimentary. There is a Tim Hortons/ Subway/ Chinese restaurant and grocery store available nearby. My room did face the road but it was pretty quiet at night with just a little noise in the morning…
Room was your typical, basic accommodations. A bit old-fashioned. Sink was plugged; nobody came to unplug it. Toilet seat was broken; nobody fixed it. Difficulty getting towels and toilet paper from staff. Apparently, they were short on towels, and asked why we needed more towels (felt very guilty asking for anything). Upon arriving back to our room our first night (with DO NOT DISTURB sign on outside door). Staff came into our room, left towels on our dirty bedspread. From experience, nobody should come into our room. PERIOD. Sign on door. They should have left towels outside our room, in plastic bag). How do I even know a mask was worn, or worse yet something gone missing. I called front desk immediately, and management argued with me when I tried to explain about the DO NOT DISTURB sign, and that nobody should have entered our room.…
We stayed here for one night after spending a day in Elora. The inn is very clean and very quiet and within short walking distance to Elora downtown. We found the room and bathroom very clean and do not really understand why others' review re the slippery issue about. I guess the inn has has been updated recently. For the room rate, we found it very reasonable.
Stayed one night. This is VERY clean, comfortable and quiet little motel, and the most reasonably priced. It has been updated. Family owned business. Nice people. We had a room on first floor and was able to park our car right outside the patio door, so easy access to bring your bags in and go to the car if you forget something. A short 10 min walk to the Main Street You won’t be disappointed staying at this place.
This is a very basic hotel that it's only saving grace is it's location somewhat downtown. The bathrooms need updating and the shower/tub combo is deadly, very slippery and you had to hold on to the hand rail. They charged a lot of money for a basic room, not worth it stay somewhere else.
The Village Inn is a no frills accommodation in Elora. My husband and I stayed for one night during a spontaneous fall roadtrip. The room was clean and more or less comfortable. (The bed was a bit hard and a little squeaky). The jetted tub was nice. The location is convenient. Walkable to downtown and an easy drive to nearby attractions. Would recommend for a one night stay but not an extended vacation.
The Village Inn is a nicely renovated hotel, within walking distance to downtown Elora. We asked for a quiet room and were given a room facing the back of the hotel, which was good to reduce traffic noise. The bed was very comfortable, and the room had a fridge and microwave. The a/c & heater unit appeared to be an all of nothing type on/off switch. You didn't set a temperature, there was just a dial for hot or cold. It didn't seem to turn off at all, so it was difficult to maintain a comfortable temperature in the room. One suggestion would be for the hotel to upgrade to nicer shower heads, especially after doing a good job renovating the rooms/washrooms. The price was very good, and I'd definitely consider coming back again for a weekend trip.
