Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers elegant and extremely clean rooms with fresh bed linens but the washrooms are a bit small. The service is warm, efficient, and multilingual. The location provides a variety of included activities in a luxury resort setting. The dining is good overall but with room for improvement. The facilities are well-kept and modern.
The hotel's main feature is the exceptional hexagonal fireplace and red cedar beams from BC. The rooms were comfortable, spacious, and clean, albeit a bit dated. The service was superb, though not what one would typically expect for the price. The location, surrounded by trees and a lovely waterfront, is perfect for unwinding. The dining experience was generally good, with a few minor disappointments. The facilities offered are satisfactory.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, located on the basement level, were clean with comfy beds, although some renovation in the bathrooms would be welcomed. The highlight was the exceptional hexagonal fireplace and red cedar beams. The service was pleasant, with staff being exceptionally helpful, although lacking a bit without the banquets manager. The location was beautiful and serene, impressing even international guests, but the dining options were underwhelming and overpriced.
The hotel offers bright, clean, and comfortable rooms that match the quaint decor, but the check-in time was late for a one-night stay, and the room size is small. The service was exceptional with extremely polite and friendly staff who were efficient and accommodating. The location is outstanding for families and group activities, ideal for forest strolls and winter sports. The dining experience had its ups and downs with an expensive but good selection marred by oversalted steaks and unexpected ingredients. Facilities were convenient and well-maintained.
The hotel was conveniently located with beautiful grounds to explore and a variety of relaxing activities. The rooms were clean and comfortable, though a bit dated. The service was generally efficient and pleasant. The dining options were underwhelming but offered fresh organic products. The amenities and facilities were great for a peaceful stay.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice, although the carpet could use some cleaning, and the pillows were cozy. The toilet paper and Kleenex matched the decor of the hotel and were clean. The service was excellent with a helpful and responsive general manager. The location was exquisite, especially during Christmas, offering various activities. The dining was delicious, with plenty of options, although some dishes were a bit over salted. Overall, a great experience with a few minor issues.
