This hotel is amazing. Each room we have stayed over time in was different in its own unique way and spacious. Extremely clean. All the litta extras in the room are a fantastic touch. The guy who was supposed to be in making breakfast couldnt come in that day, so 2 other employees took it on and were so pleasant. It was a great stay and will be back.

I have stayed here several times when passing through Thunder Bay and I really like this hotel. I appreciate the character of the building and the location is a short walk from restaurants, bars and the waterfront area. The hot breakfast options are limited to scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast but that suits me fine.
