    Teena D.

    When I checked in on Tuesday about 5:30pm, it had been a tiring day traveling ... delayed flight and brutal traffic coming from the airport. I just wanted to get in my room and relax. I was told that my room wasn't ready. Not ready at 5:30pm??!! Huh?? I could either wait 'til 6pm or I could take a smoking room. Neither option was acceptable. So she found a room that was ready but then spent 20 minutes juggling whoever was going to be staying in it for the next three days ... as I'm standing there! I'm sure she could have given me my key and let me be on my way (I had let her know I was tired and cranky) and did all that afterwards. The room itself is okay ... it's the same room as any other hotel. Nothing special. I expected more because it's a Fairmont. I was told that self-parking is $13 and valet parking is $20 a night. I opted for the valet parking. When I looked at my bill this morning, I see that valet parking is actually $23 a night. The Internet charge is $20 a night. In this day and age, WIFI should be free. Most hotels don't charge for it. If you join the Fairmont Club, it's apparently free. I have a Bell Internet stick so used that. I ran a bath on Tuesday night. It took a while because the water was a mere dribble. The water pressure isn't great at all at times :( My remote didn't work. I asked to have it checked the next day and after that it was fine. The mini fridge was locked. All I wanted was a bottle of water. So I asked for a key on Wednesday (day two). The girl at the front desk asked me I was sure it was locked. I've been opening fridges all my life so knew it was locked. She gave me a key. When I opened it, I found a key for it locked inside. Huh??!! I had breakfast in the restaurant yesterday. It was good, though the service wasn't all that warm and fuzzy. I had supper last night in the lounge. The server was friendly but my Red Thai Chicken was basically an expensive Lean Cuisine ($17). I would have expected that they would use real chicken rather than frozen processed chicken. I wouldn't stay here again because there's not much around and the area is surprisingly sketchy. I was walking around last evening looking for a restaurant for supper and a drunk guy yelled at me, "Hey Blonde Chick ... can you spare some change." There are blockades so you can't cross the street to head down to Portage or Main ... you have to go downstairs through pedestrian walk (like going into a subway station) and pop back up on the other side. That's annoying and I wasn't sure how safe it was in the evening (because there's no one around). So I dodged around the blockades and ran across the busy street (probably illegal). On the plus side, there are some good restaurants nearby. I had lunch at Johnny G's (pub grub ... good), and supper at Tre Visi (Italian ... excellent) and Bailey's (fine dining/pub grub... so-so). Alas, they close early (about 9pm). That's why I ended up in the lobby lounge last night. The shining glory of this hotel are their valet parking guys. They are amazing! I had to do seminars three times a day and after the first day they anticipated my schedule and had the car waiting for me. And they were always so friendly and greated me by name every time. They were awesome!

    Four stars for the Fairmont Winnipeg! Let's start with the staff; they were so nice! That whole friendly Manitoba thing? Not a joke here, folks. The doormen were always friendly and eager to help me out, the front desk staff were quite friendly, and when my room key didn't grant me access on the second day of my stay, they fixed the issue quickly and apologetically. The bartender in the lounge area was also a nice guy. So yeah... that tagline's definitely not a misnomer. The hotel room itself was appointed rather nicely with comfy beds, nicer linens, an in-room Keurig, and higher end bath products. I found it easy to settle in, though, as another reviewer mentioned, the décor does feel a bit dated. It's a Fairmont, certainly, but it feels as though it might be time for just a bit of a facelift at this location. That said, it doesn't take much to keep me happy in that department. While I certainly appreciate a well-decorated room, clean and comfy comes first, always. The gym facilities are more than adequate (better than I've seen in many hotels!) and there's also a pool, hot tub, and locker rooms with changing areas. Were I shelling of my own accord and not traveling for work, I think I'd agree that the price point given the actuality of the hotel quality in comparison with other, similarly priced accommodations elsewhere might feel a bit high. That said, lots of folks noted that this might be the nicest hotel in Winnipeg... maybe that has something to do with it? Overall, I'd definitely stay at the Fairmont again should I find myself in Winnipeg in the near future. This hotel is comfortable, the staff is nice, and overall, the place is a solid bet for a quality stay.

However, the parking lot is very small maybe 15 cars would fit in it. Your parking is not guaranteed. If you go out for dinner and the parking lot is full you have to park on the street even though you paid for parking. Parking spots cannot be reserved. The fact that it isn't very clear on the website and they can't guarantee parking for such a large hotel is disappointing to say the least. I told the front desk I will not stay here again. It should be noted that the lot is heavily monitored, and you can be towed from the lot if you're not registered with the hotel or a nearby business. The room is large and clean.

Granted, this was after being told they were going to upgrade us to a river-view room, and then when we went to get the keys to move our stuff they took that back saying they didn't have a non-noisy river-view room. We did manage to get spots in the parking lot on the following two nights, but only barely - getting the last spot each time. They have less than twenty spaces so you need to get lucky. Honestly outside of the specific things I've listed I liked everything else about the Mere. However, would I stay here again? No. Even the "quiet" AC room they moved us to was still noisier than I'd like, and the parking situation is abysmal. When I'm vacation I shouldn't be having to game whether it'll be okay to drive somewhere because I might not be able to park again when I get back.

Bonus points that you can reach the next door Elephant and Castle pub without going back outside. Lobby Starbucks had an actual barista but not breakfast food. Lobby restaurant opens for weekday breakfast from 7-11am and serves pretty good food. Rooms are ok but lack extra amenities. Bed and pillows are comfortable so that alone was almost worth 4 stars. Wifi works well. But closet is tiny. There's no safe. Toilet paper is sandpaper. Toilet itself had flushing issues. Gym is tiny without many machines. Smells of chlorine from the pool next door.

Parking is simple, all the way down on the basement on the "green" level - nice thing about parking down there is the car is warm in the morning!

I appreciate the electric tea kettle in the room. Club on 12th floor is solid - I like there is attendant there for breakfast. Breakfast is decent: pancakes, croissant, scrambled eggs, sausage links. During the day that are soft drinks, chips and cookies. Again always very clean. Friendly service all around & and Elephant and Castle in the same building. I am a fan!!
