The Prince Arthur Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing! We stayed at the Prince Arthur from July 25th to July 30th. When we arrived and checked in all was great got to our room and unfortunately neither of our two air conditioners was working. Called the front desk and like 15 minutes later Maintenance was there and managed to fix one one of the air conditioners but called for a replacement of the second. We then left the room to go for dinner when we got back the AC unit was replaced. All seemed well until I discovered the AC unit was leaking water all over the carpet. I put the garbage can under the AC unit to catch the water and called the front desk. By this time it was after 10PM. We stayed the night in the room. The next morning Maintenance came to our room at 8:45AM assessed the situation then called down. I received a call from the front desk to ask if we would be willing to move to the room across the hall that would give us a lake side view. We agreed to the move got the key the Maintenance staff went above and beyond and helped us move to the new room. So impressed. Great hotel! Highly recommend when visiting Thunder Bay."
