I love the ease of moving between Mayo Clinic, my room and parking. You never have to go outside unless you want to! There’s so much to do and see (and eat) in this area! The price is right and the staff is very helpful! Ask for April; she’s great!

Frequently stay at the Kahler Grand and can say they have made huge strides as they are closing in on the end of their much needed updating and working toward the service level they once had as the Premier downtown hotel in Rochester. Finally they have a front desk staff and bell staff that is professional and beginning to be staffed sufficiently.

Highly recommend staying at Kahler if you have Mayo Clinic appointments! I had surgery at the Mayo Clinic and stayed at the Kahler for about two weeks. The Kahler's easy subway access made it so easy to get to all my appointments. Every evening, they offered complimentary appetizers in the lobby. The food was delicious, and the staff was so friendly. As for our room, everything was clean and comfortable. I'll be back in October for another appointment, and I'll definitely stay at the Kahler again. -Hannah

For the Positive, very close to Mayo Clinic and connected to the underground tunnels. For the negative: The maid service was not good; beds were uncomfortable; much of the information from the front desk was inaccurate; Low water pressure. If we have to return to the area, we will not stay there.

Beautiful historic hotel
What a beautifully remodeled, historic hotel; yet it has kept its charm. The key boxes remain behind the front desk, the lobby is beautiful. Bathtub/shower is small (older size) but everything is very neat and clean. Great location for access to Mayo Clinic, Methodist Hospital and Mayo Civic Center. Great pricing for such a hotel and location.

Liked: Cleanliness
Front desk staff were always helpful and friendly. Housekeeping was poor. Of the 6 days we stayed at the Kahler we had full housekeeping for 1 day. On our next to last day there I was handed 2 plastic bags for the trash. then she never returned to collect it. I had to put it in the hall to have it removed. There were NO USB ports. For 4 days I received free coffee take out early in the AM. The last 2 days they wanted to charge me. Need consistency in policy.

Being so close to Mayo Clinic, the staff at the Kahler is completely understanding that the people staying at their hotel may be going through a really difficult time. They not only treat everyone with kindness, but they are extremely flexible which is a relief when you might not know how long you need to be in Rochester.
