We had a lovely stay in the Prince Arthur Hotel. It is a very old hotel. The fitness area was not used by us as it seemed lacking. We didn't use the pool.The staff were very freindly and our room was clean. The restaurant was amazing!! The food was very good with lots of choices. Great tea biscuits at dinner.... More

I booked two nights recently to attend a training seminar being held at this location. In short, the single room was not much bigger then the bed itself, very cold draft through the old steel slider windows, noisey heater trying to keep up with the demand, bed was absolutely terrible/cheap resulting in 2 hours sleep all night (and I ain't...

My husband and I got a room for a wedding that we went to at The Prince Arthur. The food was great and the staff at the dinner were very helpful and courteous. When it came to cleanliness, lets just say we found socks around the bed that did not belong to us. Maybe the cleaning staff are annoyed with... More

I couldn't find a room anywhere else so I wound here in the heart of an older downtown neighborhood. The price was quite high I thought and all they had available was a suite. I found the room to be pretty nice. It had been redone and was clean. The common areas of the hotel were not nice and were... More

Our room was great. The bedding was lovely, soft and thick. The view was amazing. The service was good; friendly, attentive and helpful. Loved the lobby. Glad such a historic hotel is still going strong. If fancy bathrooms are important to you, ask for one. Not an issue for me. Ours was basic, but perfectly clean and well maintained. No... More

Old hotel, old tired rooms, loud with banging doors in the hallway heard all night and shouting from the street below. Just because the hotel is old itself doesn't mean it can't be upgraded with things like a counter in the bathroom (only had a pedestal sink) or a newer couch etc. Really awful lighting in the room only lamps...

I booked the 'Romance Package' which had me in a large room with a jacuzzi. Jacuzzi was big enough for two and was clean, until I turned on the jets and a hair ball flew out of one of them. The room was big and the king bed was comfortable. The couch was old and had a slip cover on... More

We have stayed here several times through the years mainly because the price stays low compred to other accommodation in Thunder bay. The best part is the view of lake Superior and the Sleeping Giant. It nice to walk down to the harbor and visit the shops. The rooms are a bit old fashioned but it is what gives it... More

We booked our rooms online and were expecting a waterfront room but our first night we had a street side room. Not the hotels fault. The room was excellent. Much more character than a chain hotel. We booked for one night and ended up staying two. The staff was wonderfully accomodating and we moved to a waterfront room on night... More

I ended up staying in this hotel while driving through Thunder Bay and it was a great historic hotel. It was slightly outdated, but we thought it was quite nice for being 100 years old! There was a nice restaurant downstairs with a view of the waterfront. If you do go to the restaurant, make sure you try a "Persian",... More
