Holiday Inn Express & Suites New Liskeard by IHG

I had phoned a week earlier to ask for a room on the lower level. I was guaranteed my request and the gentleman said he would make a note to make the changes. When I arrived on Friday the clerk told me we were on the second level. I told her about my conversation on the phone and she said that could not have happened as the rooms were already booked, basically calling me a liar. The room wasn’t the best for my wife, myself, our daughter and her partner. Went down to the front desk and although she said that the hotel was half empty there was nothing better and another room added would double the cost, already $453.00. I asked if there was any better price she could offer. No. Then this morning checking out our daughter found two silverfish in the dresser drawer. Wow.

Beautiful new hotel. Everything was clean, staff was very friendly. Beds and pillows are super comfy and a good selection of hot and cold choices for breakfast. I can only recommend this for your next stay in Temiskaming Shores.

This hotel definitely takes advantage of the people on the road, we called early in the morning and was told only two rooms left, when we got there there was obviously a lot of rooms left, when I checked in with Derek why they were not full, said there were 30 rooms left but no cleaning staff, I can understand that but why not give us a cheaper room, would only give us a king room at $232 and other room was more expensive, I asked for rate for CAA or seniors and said they don’t do that, other holiday inns certainly do. Needless to say won’t be returning. We stayed at 4 winds motel, with basically same room, king, chair and ottoman and bigger tv, which swung around which holiday inns did not

First day started a little rough when the hotel called us to say the hot water tank broke and they didn’t know when it would be fixed. We reserved the hotel months in advance and booked 6 days/5 nights. Because we were travelling to an event there were no other hotels available on a last minute basis. We arrived and luckily the hotel water was fixed on the 2nd day. I thought I could tough out a cold shower but realized the water was colder than a frozen lake! Complimentary breakfast was good. The breakfast room was good and the lady there was very pleasant. I felt like I was rushing in the morning to get down because breakfast was only until 9am. If I could have one request it would be for breakfast to be a little later so I could sleep in longer on my holidays!! Room cleaning was not offered and we were advised upon check-in. I don’t mind so much but it was not really a holiday type feeling when I was missing some of the perks like a fresh made bed or new towels and a clean garbage can. I don’t like garbage to collect so that was a bit inconvenient collecting it and asking for someone to come collect it. Overall my room was clean upon arrival. I was also happy that of my entire trip… it was here that I had the best sleeps!
