Hotel was nice, staff friendly, overall a good place to stay!
We enjoyed our stay and met with friends. The buffet was great.
The staff, from the front desk to the housecleaning person (Jennifer) were the most cheerful, helpful hotel staff I have seen. Jennifer arranged my granddaughter's stuffed animals on the bed like a cuddle party, which pleased her and was certainly a nice extra touch. Everyone seemed happy at their jobs. I was impressed with the condition of the facilities; it all seemed brand-new. Our room was comfortable. The curtains really did block early morning sunlight. I would have liked a list of television stations; I had to search through all 68 or so until I found CNN. I might have missed such a list, but I did look around for one. One night the wake-up button on the room phone (also the operator button) gave only a busy signal. I had to go down to the front desk to enter my wake-up request. The phones were not busy. The elevators are fast. From the fourth floor we were whisked to first floor without seeing '3' on the elevator display.
We booked a 4 night stay, went to check in, we were told, we only have 2 nights reservations; even though our confirmation states 4 nights. We cancelled and went to another hotel
This was a great place to stay. My first trip to the area and I found that I was close to all of my appointments. The staff, particularly at check-in, were fabulous.
Group of family members all booked rooms and enjoyed amenities while helping family member celebrate 50th birthday!
Everything was O.K. Only bad thing was that the room wasn't clean the 2nd evening when I return from work.
We had some trouble with our baggage (thanks Air Canada) and initially the front desk refused accepting the baggage because they didn't look deep enough into their guest list. The room was booked on my name, the luggage under my husband's name. I received a warm apology from the front desk when Air Canada alerted me to the refusal. Stuff happens sometimes. Room very nice, bedding fantastic. We didn't have time to eat at the hotel, it was just a night over.
this Mariott hotel, WAS PERFECT bcause of the location of the conference/training held there, but other than that, no microwave in the room, no accesible restaurant on site ,, this need elaborate. need a quick bite, go to one of the food services, service is so bad, just like gordon ramsay kitchen nightmares. so went to the other restaurant, ALL BUFFET service, or line-up to be accomodated. we just don't have the luxury of time. one hour break only, buffet or sit down fine dining is out of the question, so the sport bar look ok for a quick burger, sorry no luck, in 55 minutes, got served with drinks only, no burger. so just bought a sandwich @ star buck coffee. if room has a small fridge and microwave, the trip would be GREAT.
What made our visit to the Marriott River Cree resort so special was the attentiveness the concierges and restaurant hostess' displayed towards my son. He had never been so spoiled. Each time they saw him they let him choose a small toy from a toy box. The concierges took time to listen to his stories about Spiderman that seemed to go on forever. When he was done they often taught him a few words in the native Cree language or bent down to talk to him at his level about his interests. Although there was not any play equipment for him to play on, he loved going to the attached hockey rink to watch a game. One of the winning players actually picked him up and took him out for a spin on the ice. Now he is excited to learn more about hockey. The friendly, natural way the staff at River Cree had with kids is one of the unforced elements that made our stay such a pleasure. Of course being a Marriott, the room and environs were top notch, but the service levels were a pleasant surprise.
