Hotels in der Nähe von Chester's Kitchen and Bar, Rochester

We have stayed twice at the Hilton, and strongly agree with all of the positive comments regarding this hotel. We had a King Corner Room for each stay, and I wanted to describe the differences between the two. The rooms ending in 20 (1520, 1620, etc.) were the larger of the two and faced north and east, with primary views of the Mayo Civic Center. The rooms ending in 02 (1502, 1602, etc.) were slightly smaller and faced north and west. These rooms have spectacular views of the entire Mayo Clinic downtown location. Either room location is great and I would agree to have access to the Executive Lounge during your stay. It is worth the small extra amount for this access. Again, this is by far one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in, particularly in this country.

I traveled with family and we had 3 rooms: 2x Kings and 1 Double. We chose the Kahler Grand for a number of reasons: proximity to the Mayo Clinic, the parking (valet), and teh ability to get a room at a discounted ”Patient” rate. One of the King rooms and the Double were all very nicely outfitted and seemed very much comfortable for the stay. The King room I was in was old and had not been updated like the other King. The thermostat was a simple dial and it simply didn't work. I could dial it up for heat and...nothing. Two or so hours later it would come on blasting heat. Try to cool down and nope - the heat would stay on a bit longer, but the cool air wouldn't come on for a few hours later. Maintenance came to check on it and said they had to replace the entire HVAC motor. I was on my last night by then and didn't want to change rooms so I deferred and just suffered through another night. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was horrific. When you opened the door to teh room the sink was immediately to your right. To get to the toilet you walked straight through. It was very tight as the door (when opened) partially blocked the toilet and totally blocked the bath. To get in or out of the tub/shower you had to swing the door back or forth and wedge yourself between the toilet and wall. The tub was small and very slippery, and the water controls were not very responsive and were hard to turn. The bath towels were extremely worn and very small, not even the size of a regular bath towel in my opinion. I was able to see the room directly below mine during the course of my stay and it had the same set up, s hopefully they have the intent to refit these rooms at some point. Our first night in we ate at the hotel restaurant, and while the staff there seemed a bit overwhelmed we still had courteous service and the food was good. The biggest thing the Kahler has going for it has to be their Staff. From ZamZam at the front desk, to maintenance, to housekeeping (kept us stocked with coffee!), to the valets - EVERYONE was as kind and helpful as could be. I didn't meet a single person that wasn't ready to fall over themselves to help out or give advice on the local area. The subway level to the Mayo Clinic was easily accessed from inside the hotel, and that made it very nice as well. Yes, the hotel is showing it's age and needs some polishing BUT I would stay there again if I had to go back...I would just be sure I got a room that wasn't like my ”old” one! Thank you to the Staff and management for making the stay nice despite the circumstances of our visit!

Location Location Location The HGI is very convenient to Mayo Clinic via Skywalk and the Subway Proximity to The Galleria and a large variety of dining options at an array of price points is a definite plus. Front desk staff were polite and eager to help . Self parking is off property about 2 Minute drive /5 minute walk from hotel. A complimentary shuttle is available for Mayo Clinic ; Other locations will incur a fee. Valet parking on property is $21. The price of our stay was about $250 for two nights . Ask for the Mayo rate; I partially paid with Hilton Honor points. We did have a little trouble having special requests honored … daily cleaning/ fresh towels, extra blanket, coffee replenished. There seemed to a bit of communication breakdown between the front desk and housekeeping, We experienced a similar issue with the Chesterton HGI in Chesterton , IN Just a heads up … the front lobby is being remodeled and upgraded. Continental breakfast ($ 7.95) and full hot breakfast ( $14.95) are available during the remodeling process

Rezeption nicht im Untergrundlobby, sondern im zweiten Stock. ”Vordertür” nicht leicht offensichtlich. Parkplatz nach Website verfügbar, ist es in benachbarten Parkplatz und eine separate Gebühr. Zimmer geräumig, gut ausgestattet mit vielen elektrischen Ausgängen, TV, Telefon, Sofa, kleine aber adäquate Schrank. Badezimmer, schön beleuchtet, sehr funktional Dusche, Toiletteneinrichtungen, gute Handtücher und Kleidung. Window-Ansicht über Parkplatz und Stadt in der Entfernung.

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut, es ist sehr praktisch, einen Arzt aufzusuchen. Frühstück ist auch ok. Beim Check-out haben wir die Parkgebühr von 28 US-Dollar berechnet. Wo sind wir zum Auto gekommen, haben die Rechnung genommen und sind zur Rezeption gegangen, um es zu erklären. Die Rezeption sagte, dass es falsch war. Es wurde an Ort und Stelle durchgestrichen. Ungefähr drei Stunden nach dem Verlassen der Stadt zog die China Merchants Bank 28 US-Dollar ab, ungeduldig, die China Merchants Bank anzurufen und darauf hinzuweisen, dass die Kosten nicht existieren, stimmte die China Merchants Bank zu, dies zu koordinieren. Das Ergebnis wartet noch.

Fabelhaftes Hotel & Personal , & große Lage. Dusche könnte mit einem Sitz- und Grabbar am Dusche Ende & eine abnehmbare Dusche, & Grab Spuren im WC, um es für Menschen mit Behinderungen geeigneter zu machen. Und die Kraft unterstützt/selbst Öffnungsräume/Türen im ganzen Hotel. Shame Bar war nicht geöffnet. Zimmerbünsen hätten mit Leerlauf regelmäßiger getan werden können. Die Zimmer wären besser mit einer freundlichen Kaffeemaschine als Percolator, plus Kaffee in den Zimmern war nicht groß, glücklich, ich brachte mein eigenes. Aber neben diesen wenigen Dingen, ein großes Hotel, Personal, Frühstück & Kaffee in Frühstücksraum waren fantastisch. Die Gäste waren alle sehr freundlich und sehr hilfreich. Sicherlich besser als das letzte Hotel, das ich in Rochester MN geblieben habe.

Beyond my comfortable and clean room and bathroom, the useful in-room exercise equipment and great gym, and the surprisingly delicious food I ordered from the bar, my experience at this hotel surpassed my expectations when a manager helped me through a difficult situation. I parked one stormy evening in a Starbucks space under the hotel when all else was full. I intended to move my car the next morning before Starbucks reopened, but forgot to do so before catching the Mayo Clinic shuttle. When I called the hotel, I eventually received a call back from Nick. Because I had back-to-back appointments, I couldn't return to move my car. Nick drove to the clinic, picked up my keys from me at the front entrance, moved my car, and returned my keys and a nice note to my room. He also texted me a photograph of my keys in my room. Nick's willingness to go above and beyond is commendable, and he is a primary reason I would recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Mayo.

We stayed at this property for a number of stays over six months while making visits to the Mayo Clinic. The staff is to be highly commended for their incredible sense of service to the Clinic customer base. Many times we observed people in serious physical condition being treated with empathy and accommodation. The front desk and shuttle staff made it clear that they were there to assist with a wide variety of needs. Rooms are clean, safe, quiet and comfortable. Kitchen is well-appointed with whatever you need to prepare meals. Plenty of linens are provided for bathroom and pull-out sofa. Pool area is nice, hot tub worked every time we visited. The outdoor seating areas around the property are a bonus. Tons of shopping and restaurants are within a few minutes' walk, including Macy's, Barnes & Noble, Trader Joe's, Panera, burger joints, and sit-down dining. Shuttle takes guests between hotel and Mayo / St. Mary's, or to the grocery store, the mall, or restaurants, and I believe the schedule was 6 am to 9 pm. The final deal-maker here, is the availability of EV charging facilities in the underground parking garage. Every Hilton property should consider adding this resource.
