This is not our first time stayed with Royal Brock Hotel, the previous experience was great that's why we came back again. The cleanliness was still good, breakfast was decent, yet the front desk staff was disappointing us. He had a negative attitude, ignored us when we stepped into the hotel, myself work in the hospitality industry, I can't believe that being a front desk agent can be this impolite. I didn't expect this from RB.

It served the purpose.

I have chosen this hotel because of its close proximity to the local university (five minutes walk just across the street). I later found out that it was an old Best Westen now operating as Royal Brock. The hotel is no doubt very old and poorly maintained, a reason for the very reasonable rate. Much work is needed especially in the toilet. However, the staff at the reception (the only staff I have interacted with while staying there for two nights) was very friendly and helpful, the WiFi works good, and if one isn’t picky, the hotel does offer a simple breakfast for free every morning. Oh, and it does have a decent indoor pool.

The room is clean, but it's OLD, air con too loud

The staff is friendly and helpful, but I can see the budget very limited, feel sorry the front desk staff has to do EVERYTHING. The housekeeper didn't clean our room for 3 days, 1st day my husband put privacy sign on by mistake, next 2 days no sign was on, but still didn't clean the room, the toilet is ALMOST plugged, the sink is 80% plugged up, call front desk, sent plumber right away, WIFI is very weak which my son complained most, leaking water from the roof water all over the stairs after the big rain storm. Didn't try the breakfast at all. so no commend.

May Have to Re Think Staying Again

Check in was fine. I liked that we were on the main floor and did not have to climb stairs. The rooms do have to be updated! Our room in particular was very damp and smelled like it. I am not sure if there is a water leak issue or what. Was not happy about that. At breakfast...they had run out of some of the food, but more was being made when I finally was able to talk to a girl who worked there. There were no plates or utensils when we showed up. I took it upon myself to fill the knives, forks and spoons as people needed them and no staff was around. There should be someone out there checking on these simple things all the time. Overall the breakfast was ok. These issues with the room were a problem the last time we stayed. May have to re think staying again.

Price, location, room space, services at Front desk, breakfast are all good. Only one thing needs to take care of is the number of staffs serving breakfast. When supplies ran out, it took quite a while to be refilled which cause inconvenience.

Large room but not clean

I checked in and found that the room is not clean yet and air-conditioning is running (seems like others are staying in the room). A lot hair in bathroom from previous guest. No elevator at conference building. It is not suitable for heavy luggage. However, the front staff is really nice and helpful.

This was our second stay at the Royal Brock Hotel in Guelph and would recommend it to anyone. The rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. The complimentary hot breakfast was good if a bit repetitive but saved going out somewhere. We didn't make use of the pool but it also looked clean and inviting. We would stay again for sure!

Could have been better.

The hotel was ok for its age. The staff tried to be accommodating. The breakfast was terrible. It was convenient to where we needed to go, so that worked for us.

BEWARE OF BEDBUGS

The room smelled weird when we first walked in, and I thought about leaving and finding another place to stay but talked myself out of it. Definitely should have gone with my instincts -- turns out our room had BED BUGS!

Good, not great

Good overall Good deal, good breakfast, good customer service. Pool was great, they upgraded us for free. Room wasn't overly clean though. Spiders and webs in bathroom, a centipede greeted us, and someone's hair was on the ceiling and floor. The bathtub / shower also had someone's hair and what looked like snot on the shower curtain. Overall good, but definitely more attention to detail needed.

Guelph stay

A nice basic hotel to stay at - was in town for the Hillside Festival and found this to be an easy place to crash at afterwards. The free breakfast was nice, but I wish there were a few more options for gluten-free guests. Also, I don't understand why everything was served with disposable plates, cups, and cutlery. That's a massive amount of garbage that's created every single day!

The location was great, however, the hotel is run down and has a persistent smell. My room was a nice size and had a balcony (with no chairs). The balcony likely contributed to all the earwigs I found in the bathroom, the bed, and once on me from my clothing.
