Beautiful hotel. We loved the stay. The check-in was easy and the staff were very welcoming The rooms were spacious and very new. Even the bathrooms were spacious. The property itself is very nice with a decent sized pool, free laundromat and a gaming room. The breakfast was surprisingly good. Everything was fresh and delicious. The location was great as well. Lots of options for grocery and eating around. All in all, I would come back again, and certainly recommend the hotel.

Brand new, super clean facility. Outdoor barbeque and fireplace terrace, and complimentary 24hr coffee / drink station, 24hr use of the guest laundry room (with many brand new washers & dryers so no wait time), game and fitness rooms were bonus. All the other usual nice-to-haves were medium sized pool (great hours 7am-11pm), morning breakfast room, large open lobby area that winds into a comfy extended bar / restaurant space with large TVs and lots of comfy places to sit and chat - the place was hopping when I was there (a regular Wed night in mid September, so imagine it would be even more upbeat at other times of the year). Friendly staff, super room (King suite), quick check in/ out and convenient parking rounded out our great stay!

Cleanliness is exceptional. Staff is professional, friendly amd warm. full breakfast is of good quality - having mixed berries as part of breakfast is a plus. Common facilities are also great, especially free laundry machines for guest use. The one thing that would be really great to add in the future is a sauna and hot tub - that would bring it from a 9 to a 10 (out of 10).

Unexpected quality stay. Very nice facility tied to Staybridge in behind, share common lounge and amenities areas. Start with the cons which are few .... beds very firm, no microwave in brekkie area, pool a little small, no hot tub. Pros plentiful .... modern appealing decor. Lounge is very well done, tvs, eating areas, bar, light eats. Games room. Complimentary coffee. Plenty of food and variety for brekkie. Hot brekkie bacon, sausage, egg cheese crepes, excellent berries and fruit selection. Highly recommend the fish fillets at Wismers bar nearby.

Everything is great, except the one lady at the front desk. At check in I didn't experience the warm welcoming approach you usually find in hotels, and more like grocery store checkout. There was 5 of us ,so we needed 2 more towels, when I called the front desk, the same lady said come down here and get them. I've never experienced that in a hotel before. Beside that one staff member, Everything is else was excellent.

I didn't like the location. At the moment there isn't any restaurants that you can walk to from the hotel you have to drive down to port Elgins main street or to the next town South Hampton. The hotel doesn't have a restaurant of its own only a bar with bar food. Every other aspect of the stay was great.

Good for a cookie cutter hotel. Front staff was very friendly but staff during breakfast were a bit bothered to help out. Maybe it was an off day. Clean rooms and for the most part, clean bathrooms. We needed an extra set of towels (4 guests, 3 sets of towels) and called for an extra set. We were told that we’d have to come pick it up if we wanted anymore which I found was inconvenient especially for the high price point of such a basic hotel. The area is also very quiet at night. Even the nearby neighbourhood of SouthHampton was a ghost town.
