The building is gorgeous and the staff is very nice. But the area around the build is a little sketchy and the food in the hotel was not good at all.

Loved the space and location of the hotel. Breakfast was amazing at the restaraunt!
Did not like the mandatory clientelle often visibly under substance influence. It is a pity, and not a fault of owners.

Hotel was clean and seemed well maintained. Parking lot is NOT very secure and the unsavory characters begging for money and cigarettes were a definite problem. Excellent views, large rooms, lots of homeless beggars.

It is a unique property with a deep history connecting back to history. It reminds me of the Royal York downtown Toronto.

Although dated, a clean and comfortable stay that is on the waterfront. Some construction in the immediate area but nothing of inconvenience. A Thunder Bay landmark and hopefully one that will see it go thru some well-deserved renos.
