I hardly believe the statement that all rooms were updated last year! The furnishings are in poor condition, the shower is moldy and the tub floor is so dirty I will need to wear flip flops to shower. The 1 staff I met is friendly enough,but it is very depressing here. I planned to stay 4 nights but will be... More

Stayed at the Fiksdal for 6 nights while my mother was hospitalized. It is right across the street from St Mary's, which is super convenient for coming and going any time of the day, especially with a 4 yr old who needed naps. The room was clean, had a window view and kitchenette, which was also very nice. The evening... More

Stayed here for 2 nights while visiting family at St Mary's hospital. It is literally 30 steps from hotel to hospital. This is an older hotel without a lot of frills, but it is very clean and the front desk staff is extremely friendly. I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone needing a place to stay near the hospital

The only hesitation I have in writing about my experience is the fear that they will be completely booked when I need to stay there again! I stayed for three weeks and the location of the room they gave me - no windows, complete privacy and quiet - was perfect for what I needed. I can not begin to describe... More

We stayed at the Fiksdal Hotel so far on two separate occasions recently. The rooms are very comfortable, clean and quiet. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. It is approximately 35 steps to St Mary's Hospital. Fantastic restaurants on the same block. We will be going back to Rochester in a couple weeks and wouldn't even consider staying anywhere... More

I stayed at Fiksdal Hotel for 4 nights while a family member was in St, Mary's Hospital. This is the 2nd time I have stayed here (1st was 2010), and I have to say, this experience was different and not as good. For one thing, the room does not have an air conditioner. The room was very hot all night... More

Dear reviewman97, Thank you for taking the time to write a review of the Fiksdal Hotel. We are sorry you felt that your room was too warm – our air conditioning is now on and flowing nicely, and I’m sorry it wasn’t on during your stay. I’m so glad that you enjoyed our free continental breakfast as well as our... More

I chose the Fiksdal because it is right across the Street from St. Mary's and I could easily go back and forth to the hospital at any hour. The staff were very accomodating. They provided a recliner for my husband to sleep in when he was released from the hospital. The breakfast room attendant was cheerful and diligent about restocking... More

My husband has had three trips to the Mayo Clinic and St Mary's Hospital since October, and I originally selected the Fiksdal because it was across the street from St. Mary's and reasonably priced. After the first visit, I did not hesitate to stay there again. Reasons: Sixth floor rooms have big windows and look out to downtown area. For... More

The staff, the room, the convenience to St. Mary's Hospital, and to a great restaurant next door all worked to make our week at the Mayo Clinic a success. We were cared for at the hotel as much as at the hospital. Suggestions for restaurants, driving tips, and the fact that we only had to walk across the street made... More
