Had breakfast twice and room service dinner once. Solid. Used the gym, which was very well appointed and empty on a Saturday afternoon. Most outstanding feature of the Strathallan is the staff. Excellent. Will definitely return.

Really good space and large with friendly staff. The breakfast was somewhat disappointing. The flavours of the avocado toast was rather mismatched and did not go together.

Everything was great with the exception that there was so much construction going on in the lobby and front entrance that it was a bit chaotic during this time.

Super comfortable bed and pillows! Room was immaculate, except for corners of the shower. I wish the wall between bathroom and bed had better soundproofing. The bar was hopping when we arrived at 10pm - Luckily our room was nowhere near and so we didn’t hear anything.

We really like the Strath. They renovations look really good and the room was great. The views are so pretty of Rochester. The bed was very comfy and so were the pillows. We ordered omlettes for room service and they came fast and were delicious. The staff also gave us a bunch of free water bottles. The free parking and the location are really great as well. Excited to stay again! The elevators smell really bad. I really didn't like the synthetic scents being pumped into them and believe the management should consider removing synthetic fragrances as it activates allergies and is not good for health.

Having stayed there before, I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived to find a newly remodeled and upgraded facility. Cleaner, open, modern floor plans. The weight room was on par with my gym membership equipment. Rooms appeared larger without losing any amenities. Albeit there was a lot of morning noise outside due to the winter storm clean up and some final construction removal. This was temporary and the majority of my stay was comfortable and relaxing.

This hotel is under construction, no lobby, workers all over the hotel and clogging up the parking and unloading area. Management indifferent. Staying at a construction site, with no prior notice to guests or discount to rooms.

We had dinner there and a few things. The price of the meals are extremely high, ie: pork chop was $46 which included no sides. The pork chop came out very under cooked, however the chef corrected and was very tasty. And the waitress Glacy (who was very fun to banter with!), made it right with a complimentary beer and dessert (which was very good). We would not eat there again onky because of the price, but again Service was excellent and the chef is talented. Overall, 8/10!

The lobby, however, is bright and welcoming, as is the staff. The lobby bar is terrific. I can only hope that the transition from DoubleTree by Hilton to Tapestry by Hilton is done swiftly. For now, the rates for rooms here are outrageous considering the condition of the rooms.

My two-night stay was excellent. I appreciated the text message check in from the front desk asking how my stay has been and if I needed anything to make my stay better. My room was clean, the only thing that was a little inconvenient was the fact that my microwave was unplugged and I had to uncomfortably reach over and behind the writing desk and tv dresser stand to reach the power cord to plug it back in.

Old and tired to describe the carpeting, elevators, etc. is an understatement. Had to travel 9 hours the day I checked out without a shower because there was no water. It wasn’t a municipal issue. That should never happen. With the amount I paid for my room, I’d think there could be a more robust maintenance program.

1. Don’t travel with an animal. There is video proof the hotel has when I entered and exited the building. 2. I haven’t smoked in my 37 years of living. I left the room immaculate like I always do when leaving a hotel. I travel all the time not once have a hotel charged me for fake incidentals. Be aware when staying here. I even took pictures upon checking out.

I believe the hotel will undergo renovations now that it is owned by Hilton. The rooms need updated furniture, especially the couch in our 1-bdrm suite. It was old and uncomfortable. The AC unit is the old loud kind. Otherwise the room was good. The location of the Strathallan is perfect and the rooftop bar is a great place to catch the sunset over the city scape… great views and plenty of seating. The martinis are excellent too! The breakfast was perfect!
- 3/5
The roof-top lounge is worth a visit, and the restaurant food is high quality and well presented. It still feels pricey for what it is, but not too pricey. The staff is generally excellent, and overall I had a positive experience. That said, I had a few very negative interactions with one or two of the more senior and older/mature looking members of the staff. They were consistently gruff, came across as rude, and borderline unprofessional. Their behaviour compares very poorly to the rest of the crew. Since they're still employed, I assume they are the hotel management. I didn't ask. One particularly poor experience was when I called down to ask about late checkout. For context, I was in an "accessibility" room. I have some mobility issues, and this is a room designed to be more comfortable for people like me. I called at 11:10, and was told to vacate by 11:30. The call was handled by what I assume is a manager. I met him again on the way out - he was running the reception at the time. Thinking that the 20 minute deadline is some sort of gaffe or mistake, I made the mistake of checking. I asked if this is standard hotel policy or some kind of emergency. He made it clear to me that it's not an emergency, not hotel policy, and that he didn't appreciate being called out like this in front of other guests. Barely-contained rude and unprofessional.

This hotel is beautiful and what a great staff. Gwen was so helpful and informative. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds. Love the balcony! The staff welcomes you in and the cookies are a great idea as we arrived after a 7 hour drive. Hotel also has a great restaurant. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and many places to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee. Easy to walk to museums and dining options and cute shops. Easy drive to highway to get to other areas; very convenient location.

The lack of sufficient outlets in the room was disappointing. My room only had 1 outlet by the bedside and one plug was for the light. Most people have other things to plug in besides just a phone. I had to unplug the light to use my heating pad. There was a lack of lighting in the room especially since I had to unplug the bedside lamp. I was disappointed that the beautiful staircase that is shown in photos on various social media sites for the Strathallan was not located at the hotel. That staircase is actually at the spa across the street. The staff we encountered were very professional and friendly. Overall it was a good visit.

The property is conveniently located to downtown Rochester. A big issue was they discontinued having coffee available in the mornings in the lobby (they had it for years).

Other than that, everything was perfect!
