Sad. Yarmouth deserves so much more. I don't even know where to start...dated decor, dirty floors, this hotel is dirty. Very displeased overall, I can't understand how the Rodd group allow this property to be run into the ground Staff were however very friendly, pleasant and helpful. Overall changes are needed, big changes.

I am in my bed at the Rod Grand right now. This is the most disgusting, filthy, sickening hotel I have EVER stayed at! For dinner, or waitress was rude,snippy and angry the whole time. Once we had started dinner, THREE PEOPLE DISCOVERED A LONG, BLACK PIECE OF HAIR IN THEIR MEALS! The server had bleached black hair and didn't... More

Travel and "hotel it" often. Everytime I go to Yarmouth and stay at the Rodd I say "NEVER AGAIN". Stayed in the "upgraded" room with King bed. To say the decor is OLD and DATED is an understatement.Bathroom was disgustingly dirty. Tile floors in bathroom has "sticky stains" around the toilet; Evidence of HAIR and toilet paper bits on floor... More

The hotel is old as hell. How old is it? Carbon dating carried out on the brass room keys and trinatron tube television puts it somewhere around 1987 but science does have its limitations so actual dating could go back decades. The hotel was particularly over run with children, playing on luggage carts in the hall ways and parents sitting... More

I had the opportunity to stay at this hotel this summer when my son's baseball team was playing in provincials. They accommodated all of us, including my dog and I must say this is the first hotel that actually was pet friendly. Not only did they provide a treat bag for the dog, they didn't charge us extra for his... More

We recently stayed at this hotel and it is in need of a face lift, it is old and tired, the walls are paper thin, the wall paper is peeling, the carpets are dirty and everything is dated. There was a wedding the night we stayed and they put us on a higher floor to avoid the noise and party... More

I'm sorry but this hotel is disgusting. Dirty bathroom, musty smells - I actually had them change my room twice, but it's the same everywhere. Needless to say I won't be taking my shoes off or taking a shower here! Do not come to this hotel.

Thank you for your comments. We do appreciate all feedback from our guests. Unfortunately I have to disagree with you on your post. Our hotel is not disgusting. Our bathrooms are very clean as are the tubs. They are not new and therefore show some wear. I am sorry that you did not feel comfortable during your stay and sorry... More

I stayed at the Rodd Grand Yarmouth recently and was less than impressed. Although my hotel room was almost clean, the hotel in general is in SERIOUS need of updating. From the sheets that were so rough with pilling, to the polyester bedspread, old school tv (which never really worked) and peeling paint on the bathroom ceiling - this hotel... More

Staff is extremely friendly and ready to offer excellent service. But generally the hotel as a whole needs a renovation (rugs, walls, etc.). Also the rooms could be cleaner. To bad because the staff is great but the building is terrible.
