I spent five days at this Hilton location, with visits to the nearby Mayo Clinic during the visit…read more The location is a few short blocks from the clinic, despite the ongoing construction, so that's a huge bonus. Check in was a breeze, and the valet service was quick to greet us, help us unload our bags, and get our car whisked off for parking. The front desk attendant was so quick and offered us some food suggestions while they worked on getting us our room. After taking the elevator up to our floor, we got situated and relaxed a bit before checking out the space. The room was spacious, and included all the amenities we've come to expect from a Hilton property. Everything was clean and well maintained, and thanks to Hilton Honors, we had our complimentary water bottles already in the room. The beds had lovely linens on them, and the pillows were quite fluffy, which is something that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in hotels I feel. The bathroom was also wonderful with a nice deep soaking tub, which I had the pleasure of taking for a spin one evening. The bathroom sink had great water pressure, which gave me a lot of hope for the shower, but the shower just lacked that same oomph.

The great: the club and the employees in it. The aesthetics. Netflix and other streaming services…read more The pool and sauna. The good: location and ease to getting to/from Mayo Clinic. Overall it's quiet. Loved the bidet! The happy hour at the adjacent restaurant was on point. The meh: Unclear arrival instructions, there was no valet outside despite telling us we had to use valet. So we self parked. Just confusion. I also didn't care for the soap/shampoo/conditioner smell. It overpowered the room. Because it was also very cold, the windows kept cracking and the sidewalk plow outside was so loud I thought someone was vacuuming above our room. Maybe I'm just over assuming but I feel like the windows should have kept more of that noise out. The ick: I'm pretty sure at least 2 sets of our towels were just re-hung up from the prior occupant of our room, both due to smell and appearance (see picture). In all my years of staying at hotels not once have i ever even suspected that is the case, until this stay. Overall, my general impression is that this is a great Hilton property. But that housekeeping issue for me will honestly prevent me from returning next time. This was more a 2.5 for me, but the positives far outweighed the negatives so 3 stars it is.

For me, there was an epic process undertaken by the reservation staff on behalf…read more I had a Mayo appointment on Oct 1, 2 and 3. The one on the 2nd was at 8am. So my wife and I decided to stay overnight before the appointment on the 2nd. I made my reservation easily through the Hilton app. But I mistakenly made the appointment for Oct 2nd. I called Hilton. The representative told me they could move my appointment but the difference in price was almost $100. I told him to cancel the reservation and I would book elsewhere. Automatically the representative began to attempt to get the same rate on the night of the 1st as I had gotten for the night of the 2nd. He could not do it but he came very close by negotiating with the front desk on my behalf and using my Hilton points. I wound up spending only $30 more (on the base price, then add taxes). I received emails with updates about everything that had been done. My final email said cancellation code: on one line and date of stay on the next line. I called back to sort out the meaning of that one because the dates were the correct dates. But that agent was amazing as well! I loved being able to pick my own room on the app. When I came in, I let them know that I had checked in on the app. Front desk staff explained that there was a $15 parking fee. I wouldn't have minded if I knew. But I was surprised. They only charged me for 1 vehicle even though my wife and I had 1 and my PCA had 1. When I had the appointment on the 3rd, I didn't need to stay because the appointments were so late but they did allow me to have 1 car stay to pick up after the appointment. Oh, getting into the parking ramp... that was an adventure! You could go through the McDonald's parking lot and come up on it from that angle. It looks more like you are supposed to follow the signage for the Courtyard by Marriott and pass the entrance to the first ramp on your right. Enter the 2nd ramp on the right. Park on the right side where it says 15 minute parking. Go to the front desk WITH your license plate number to get a parking pass. THEN move your car up the hill WITH a room key IN HAND. The shuttle to Mayo Clinic is free. It runs basically every 15 minutes , They also asked if my giant dog was registered online. She was and because she is a service dog there was no extra charge. (A pet is a $75 charge.) The reason why they could not meet the price on Oct 1 that they offer on Oct 2 is that on Wednesday nights they offer "free" appetizers and cocktails. This could have been our meal if we were up to the energy of the gathering. The rooms were listed on floors 3-6. Floor 2 is the parking ramp. I chose room 606 because I could get right off the elevator and go straight ahead. It was a 2 queen Suite that was clearly recently remodeled Honestly it is the smallest suite I had been in. On the refrigerator there was a QR code to get Grub Hub trial for being a Hilton guest. But the kitchen was fully stocked with a full size refrigerator, a dishwasher, a stove / oven, a toaster in the cabinet. All the plates, cutlery, and cookware you could need! A coffee maker (not K Cups) with coffee and Swiss Miss, sugar and French Vanilla creamer There was a small eating peninsula. And into the living area. There was a sofa that pulled out into a bed and a comfy chair. Stacked tables and modern lighting. We opened the sofa to be comfy with the giant dog while watching TV. From the wall, it reached the dresser that held the TV on the opposite wall. The extra bedding for the fold out is on the top shelf of the open closet passed the sink. The tub with shower is behind the single privacy door with the toilet. There is a nice soft light night light that glows towards the closet and away from the beds so you can get to the area at night and not trip over something. The bedroom has one table. Between the two queen beds. Though, it does have a desk and rolling chair. I needed to find a replacement for a nightstand because my wife needed the table for the C-Pap machine and I needed a place for my meds. But we just shuffled furniture around as needed. The bed, the sheets, the blanket were all incredibly comfortable. I found the pillow to be too soft. But with the ceiling fan, a second TV and separate room controls, all was well all night. I felt very secure knowing that everyone needed a key to use the elevator. Then there was a standard bolt and a plate that held the door down from the inside. And all of that would only.be necessary if they got through the elevator first. A couple notes: Housekeeping comes every other day to straighten up and will do a full turn over every 4th day. There is a full size iron and ironing board, as well as a full size hair dryer. Unfortunately, the shampoo, conditioner, soap and lotion provided are in refillable bottles on the wall. At the moment they are clean but these never age well The hot breakfast was awesome!

I like everything about this place. If you are staying in…read moreRochester to receive services from Mayo Clinic, this place is a peaceful, calm, near-by option. The shuttle drivers are very, very helpful, and the subtle runs from early, around 5 AM, until 7 PM. The complementary food served in the morning is delicious, and the coffee shop is good, too. This was my second time staying for a week or more, and the staff was good to me night and day. I very much enjoyed the full-size refrigerator, and the kitchenette with supplied cooking equipment and silverware. The non-carpeted floor in the entryway/kitchen/bathroom was clean, and the carpeted area seemed clean, too. I do wish they provided handheld shower, heads, but oh well... certain people can't be trusted with that kind of responsibility, right? For this price point, with the Mayo patient discount, I felt like I got my moneys worth.

If you need a convenient place to stay near the hospital, this is definitely a solid choice.

Staff was friendly and attentive. Decent exercise Room. My only real complaint is that there was no auto close on the door. You have to remember to pull it shut.

I…read moretypically stay at Hilton brand hotels- Hampton inn, garden inn, etc but my sister booked this stay for me for her son's baseball tournament in Rochester. Like I said- I'm used to Hilton hotels and I was quite surprised by the spaciousness, but especially the comfort of the bed! I typically don't sleep well at hotels just because the bed is so uncomfortable but this bed was just as comfortable if not more than my $8k bed at home. The suite was nice- a pull out sofa, sink, dishwasher, stove top, closest, large desk, private room with a king size bed, plus the shower and bathroom were separate with a closed door from the sink and additional closet. The room also got super cold which I appreciated because I like my hotel rooms to be at 60 degrees in the summer (crazy I know) and this was way cold even at 65! Also, free breakfast is always a plus. The only criticism I would have is that the workout facility is practically right in the lobby with windows for walls for everyone to see but I didn't plan on using it this time around so it wasn't that big of a deal but if I had I may have felt a tad uncomfortable but not because the clientele, just feeling like everyone can see in. I would stay again.

You serve yourself, cafeteria style and it's all so clean. The omelet was actually really good! If I'm ever in the area I will definitely stay here again, no doubt about it. They also offer shuttle rides to the Mayo Clinic if you're in town for that. No complaints! Loved this hotel!
