Too many stairs to get to our room. Nowhere did we see anything that there was no elevator. I have two knee replacements and it was very difficult for me to climb 18 stairs. Walked in the front door and no direction of where to sign in. Went into restaurant to ask and we signed in at the bar!! While people were sitting there drinking!!!! Very old, floors are not leveled. Would not recommend.

This is the second time we have stayed here. It is clean and quaint. The room suits my young family of 4. My only small complaint was that the hot water in the shower ran out in the morning. Otherwise this spot is perfect.

The positive is the staff are friendly and it is a convenient downtown location. Rooms are quaint with spacious bathrooms and aircon. However, the rooms and bedding are outdated with a faint "stuffy" smell due to age. The entrance door had a large gap. Not very private. There is no breakfast available as the pub/restaurant below doesn't open until 11:30 a.m. (A half hour after check out) The T.V. is complicated to turn on. We couldn't get it to work despite the instructions. And there are no staff on site after 8pm to assist if you have any issues like this. The air conditioner is on the wall and preset at a temperature by the hotel. There was no converter to control the temperature and the aircon was pointed directly to my bed. I had to put on a hoodie as it was so cold on my head. If the converter for the air was in the room, I could have locked the air conditioning fan upwards so it wasn't blowing directly on me. Also overpriced for the age of the room.

The exterior of the building does not look like a hotel at all but we were pleasantly surprised when we checked into our room. The room was spacious, although the position of the second bed was awkward. It was clean and has everything we wanted. Because it was an old building, the room was not level as we could see the uneven gap between the bathroom door and the floor. The bathroom door could not close properly as a result. Bed was comfortable, fridge worked well. Bathroom was spacious. Keurig coffee machine. Microwave and fridge.

This is a nice place to stay right in the centre of Minden. We arrived late and the pub was closed, but the instructions were clear and we found our way without any problem. Super clean and very comfy bed. No complaints whatsoever. We would stay there again.

Complete over-priced disappointment! Avoid.

The Dominion was the only place available last minute on a long weekend. There was a very good reason for this - it's atrocious. The rooms are tiny, the walls are paper thin (you can hear guests talk in other rooms as though they were in yours), bathroom was filthy (tub had several areas of what looked like black mold), rooms are not refreshed for multi-night stays, etc. Totally not worth the money - it should be compared to a very low grade motel. We have no issues paying $250/night, but that price point comes with certain expectations that go beyond what's delivered here. We've been home from this vacation for a week and still irritated by this part of our vacation. We were desperate due to a last minute change in plans and we paid for it. Moral of the story: Book early, but book elsewhere.
Filth in the bathtub.
Suspicious staining that looks a lot like mold.
