We booked a two bedroom and got into the room - checked in at 4:30 when checkin start was 4, got to the room and there was no heat in the 2nd bedroom. We went to front desk - there were 2 girls there and they offered to change our room. however we had already unpacked everything so we declined and my kid slept on the floor infront of the fireplace. The next morning we went to the front desk and they said well they should have offered you a space heater. I was like what you have space heaters and she said I’ll talk to the workers and let them know. And told me I should have asked for it. No offer of a discount or any compensation for this inconvenience which was completely their fault. The manager also suggested if we stay there again we should call ahead and ask them to make sure the heating/cooling system works in the room. We had asked for a late checkout as checkout is 11 and were told no they don’t give late checkouts. Because they are smaller run business they can’t ask the housekeepers to change their routine. Terrible service. I left an item in the bed expecting that ‘because they were a smaller run business as the manager advised, I would get it back but no, they have ‘not’ been able to locate the item. I do not believe this.

Clean, if dated rooms. Very close to a very good restaurant, The Port Tavern. We enjoyed our dinner a lot. Three weird things that would give me pause if I were to consider returning -piles of garbage or recycling were next to our door, and our neighbour’s doors. It may be that pickup day is tomorrow or whatever, but I didn’t like the look of arriving to the last person’s garbage. -they shoveled snow at 3am! Ok it’s a snowy night, but that is bizarre and way too early to be out there scraping the sidewalk with a shovel. -the woman who checked us in was “friendly” but made extremely weird, pointed comments about the city my wife and I came from. Nobody cares that you don’t like Toronto… you sure seem to like our tourist dollars, and I bet they liked them at the local establishments we patronized on our visit. When somebody is taking the time and money to patronize your business, your town, and your region, it is unbelievably rude to just blatantly say you don’t like where they’re from. So yeah… my wife and I love Grey County and would come back, but next time we will pay a bit more for a bit more luxurious accoms and hopefully better service. It needs to be said that at Heart’s restaurant, Scandinave Spa, and the Port Tavern we were treated with incredibly friendly courtesy and hospitality. The type YOU would get from US if you came to Toronto.

Given the cost per night, and not holding the age of the building against it, our room had several areas that were dirty including closets and visible rust/dirt/stains on the walls. We booked this place for the pool, and it was intentionally set at a temperature that was so cold that no one stayed in for more than a minute (our family or any of the others we saw dip their toe and then leave). Really unfortunate with young children that we cannot use the pool facilities.

Our suite at the Royal Harbour Resort was great. Lovely views over the water. And it was large and well appointed. However—and this is significant—the check in process was nightmarish! We were driving from near Kingston and had to leave later than expected through circumstances beyond our control. I called before we left because I knew we would be late arriving. I was told no problem, there’s someone on the desk till 11:30. Then, weather and traffic made us even later and I called again to say we would be arriving close to 11:30. Again I was told, there is no problem. If you arrive after 11:30 there are numbers posted to call and get instructions. We arrive right at 11:30. No one there. Call first displayed number. Crickets. Call the second number. Crickets. Leave messages, wait for a call back. NOTHING. Keep calling. No one ever answers. Eventually we have to leave, drive back to Collingwood, where we have to pay for another night at a more expensive hotel. My two sons were with us, and I kept thinking, what if our kids were little? We were in the area to meet up old friends and go skiing. I was so angry I barely slept. While the matter was eventually resolved with a refund, plus additional compensation for the extra we had to pay at the other hotel, at no point did I receive a phone call from either of the numbers I had been calling the night before. I’m not convinced my messages were even listened to. Front desk staff were polite and helpful. The bosses, obviously not!

We stayed for 2 nights in the studio. Family of 3 for a ski trip. It was perfect for a great price. The heating system was on full blast of not on at all. We just left it off and it was perfect. We would stay there again for sure.

This property was absolutely perfect for our stay to enjoy the Scandinave Spa. Although a bit dated, it was so spacious and private, we really loved our stay here. Go to the Bruce Wine Bar for an exceptional meal and then come back to enjoy a night cap and views over Georgian Bay. Nothing better!
