The grand old lady - Kahler Grand is like a home away from home for all of us scared and apprehensive Mayo Clinic patients. Just a few feet away from Mayo Clinic's main entrance, this is where to stay if you are from out of town. Worth the money and convenience. We stayed at another lodging place and will never... More

I was so pleased with my room. Sure, it needs a little updating, but they are minor (lamp shades had little tears) and it was very clean. I actually liked the older sink,shower, bath fixtures, it gives it character. My bed was very comfortable and the staff, with a few exceptions, was very helpful. Thank you. If I am in... More

I have stayed at the Kahler on 3 occasions when getting my physical at the Mayo. It never disappoints me. While it is an older hotel, it is kept up well and really only shows the great part of it's age in the solid craftsmanship and tradition. This time I had a couple of drinks and ate at Martinis in...

Because of ongoing medical issues and return visits to Rochester, we had the opportunity to stay at the Kahler Grand. We've done so now about half a dozen times and each time has been wonderful. If you are staying here for medical reasons, Mayo Clinic is literally steps from the entrance of the hotel, which creates great convenience. The hotel... More

We stayed at the Kahler for 5 nights last month for our visit to the Mayo Clinic. We stayed in one of the newly renovated "Pure" Allergy-Free Executive King rooms. The room was nice, but also quite small. It was also NOT allergy free. Not even close. In fact, my allergies were so bad that my nose bled the entire... More

We had our wedding in the Elizabethian Room of the Kahler and stayed there as well. The wedding, catering staff, event planning was performed in a completely professional manner. We and our guests were impressed. The rooms and services were outstanding.

My annual trek to Mayo Clinic is made easy by the good folks at Kahler Grand Hotel. They know why I am there, greet me with a welcome checking in and always wish me a good year and a "hope to see you again in a year" upon my departure. The wait staff in the restaurants and the cleaning staff... More

This is an old hotel, and you can see it in the rooms, but the property is in excellent shape and is obviously well cared for. The staff is great and it is the closest hotel to the clinic.
