My stay at Hilton Garden Inn Rochester Downtown was quite pleasant overall. The hotel staff truly shines, providing warm hospitality and going above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable. However, I did find the sliding bathroom door a bit annoying and the parking situation could be improved.

My stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Rochester Downtown was a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, making it easy to access the Mayo Clinic and numerous dining options nearby. The cleanliness of the room was a highlight, though I struggled with the road noise from the street outside. While the breakfast was good, I found the parking fee a bit high for the area.

I had an overall pleasant stay at Hilton Garden Inn Rochester Downtown, but there were a few hiccups. The hotel staff was incredibly accommodating, especially when my husband and I needed breakfast after hours. However, parking was a bit of a challenge, and I found the noise from traffic outside my room to be bothersome. Overall, it's a nice place, but some elements could use a bit of improvement. 😊

Valet service was slow, and I faced challenges with parking during my visit. The lobby was also under renovation, which detracted from the atmosphere.

My stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Rochester Downtown was fine overall. The friendly staff and convenient location near the Mayo Clinic were highlights, but the cleanliness and parking left much to be desired. While I appreciated some of the amenities, like the complimentary coffee and fruit in the lobby, the overall experience felt a bit lackluster.

Rooms

6.0

The rooms were clean but basic, with nothing particularly special about them. I found the beds comfortable enough, and my room had decent space, but it felt somewhat outdated despite a fresh coat of paint.

Service

The staff were incredibly welcoming. Front desk personnel, especially Kim and Stephanie, made me feel right at home. Housekeeping, too, was attentive, with Jenny leaving thoughtful touches like toothpaste when she noticed I needed it.

Location

10.0

Location wise, I couldn't have asked for better. It's just a short walk to the Mayo Clinic, and I loved the skywalk access that kept me warm during the harsh winter. Plus, there are plenty of restaurants nearby if you don’t mind braving the cold.

Dining

5.0

The breakfast options were not included in my stay and seemed a bit overpriced based on what I saw. However, I appreciated the hot tea and coffee provided in the lobby throughout the day.

Facilities

While the pool was small and the parking situation was pretty chaotic, I valued the valet service which made logistics easier. There was no full-time bartender at the bar, which was a letdown, limiting my options after a long day.

My stay at Hilton Garden Inn Rochester Downtown had its ups and downs. The location is spot-on, close to the Mayo Clinic and lots of cool spots, making it super convenient. However, I was not thrilled with the rather lukewarm welcome and some underwhelming service from the staff, which made things a bit awkward. On the flip side, the breakfast was excellent and the valet service was handy when it worked as expected.

Rooms

Breakfast was a pleasant surprise—delicious and hot, with options that really hit the spot. It definitely started my day off right.

Facilities

Valet service was polished but inconsistent; it felt off when I had to go get my own car after paying for it. Also, some maintenance issues in the common areas were a letdown.
