We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the unique Rodmay Heritage Hotel in December, 2011. It is being lovingly restored and expanded to include small businesses and local arts endeavors. Our room was super clean, cozy, with an excellent bed, and friendly service. We ate incredibly well in the Magpie Diner, the food was fresh and home-cooked and delicious at every... More

Three of us visited for a weekend and loved the atmosphere. It is being lovingly restored. The food is great at Magpie's. It is very clean and comfortable, and the staff very friendly and accommodating. On the downside, the tv wasn't working and despite several requests, was never attended to. Hot water was slow, but to be expected in a... More

We only stayed here one night, it is a 101 year old hotel. It is old but the room we stayed in was very clean. The factory across the street is very noisy if you need quiet to sleep. We had no screens in our windows. The hotel needs some extra TLC but it depends what you are looking for.... More

I stayed at the Rodmay for two nights in February and was pleasantly surprised with what they have done with the place. New hardwood floors in the rooms and pleasant staff. The room i stayed in was basic, but quite comfortable and the price was great.

It's been a few months since our 2nd stay, but I just felt I had to write a review to counter the negative stuff on here about the Rodmay. Yes it is old and could use a little more work, but I found nothing wrong with the hotel-it was clean and everything worked great for us. The staff were really... More

We found the hotel to be very interesting. The lobby was quite lovely, and the art on display was exceptional. Though there was not a seperate check-in desk, the staff in the beer and wine store were friendly and more than happy to give us a little history of the hotel and surrounding areas when they checked us in. We... More

Don't be put off by the fact that the Rodmay is located accross the street from what used to be the world's largest pulp and paper mill. Its glory days long gone, the mill recently has survived through a combination of gov''t subsidies and hydoelectric power sales. We feel the mill adds historical charm like everything at the Rodmay including... More

I would never stay at this "hotel" again. It is terribly run down. The bed lamp didn't even have a bulb in it, you could not open the venetian blind as the cords where missing. Perhaps that was a good thing since the windows were filthy along with other things. We had a room whereby you heard a compressor running... More

An old Hotel in the process of being renovated. Charming lobby with friendly staff but needs proper reception desk with people in attendance. Rooms are clean and adequate, but water facing rooms noisy because of the paper mill. Poor water pressure, a shower that did not work and the fact you have to wait five minutes for warm water was...

Perhaps we were expecting too much, but we were disappointed with the hotel. The exterior is very run down, and though some interior areas have been renovated, there remains much to be done to restore this building to even a shadow of its former glory. In the middle of tourist season, there was no reception desk, much less any other... More
