Kahler grand hotel is one of the handiest properties if you are going to Mayo Clinics as it is right across the street! All of my appointments at Mayo Clinics were easily accessible via the subway system that connects to hotel subbasement which kept me from having to out in the chilly rain to get to my appointments. Very handy. The property was also in good repair despite they are in the middle of a remodel. All staff were friendly and helpful.

Susan

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Kahler is closest to the Mayo Clinic and easily accessible via elevators and the walking subway system. The renovations made since 2019 were less impressive. The rooms no longer had individual temperature/air controls, the desk personal were not familiar with hotel features as to how to access the pool as the direct elevator was not in service and whether or not towels were available there. Room service was available only upon request prior to noon. There was no prior notice that the front lobby was going to under construction and totally unaccessible with a circuitous detour to the mezzanine. The Kahler Grand has become much less grand.

This was suppose to be newly remodeled.The first elevator we tried to take didn’t even work. It would close the doors and wouldn’t move to the floor we pushed. We tried a couple times even pressing different floors. It was broke. Our room had no hot water. Took 15 minutes to get warm that night. The next morning it did the same thing. But wouldn’t get warm. We told them about this they asked if we wanted maintenance or to move rooms. We choose maintenance but the water got warm by then. Just to go cold once in shower. For what we paid this was a complete disappointment. All they said was sorry. Did nothing at all. Basically asked us if we called, which we did. So trying to put the blame on us. We stayed there because it was close proximity to the hospital. But when you are preparing for a surgery you aren’t expecting to change rooms or wait on maintenance. Once it was hot we thought it would stay that way. I will never stay there again. I asked for maintenance but they never sent it once I said the water was getting warm.

We’d stayed at the Kahler Grand previously and loved it. However, because we booked with Expedia this time (last time booked straight with the hotel), we ended up in horrible rooms. Booked more than one room for family as I had surgery at Mayo while we were there. Our rooms were on completely different floors, though I requested them together. Because we booked through Expedia, they would only allow us to have certain rooms. Our room was blazing hot. We called the front desk and they said they’d have maintenance come but they never did. We had our window open all day and night (it was Feb) and the room remained in the mid 80s throughout our stay. Very disappointing stay for several days. We won’t book again.
