Hotel in zona Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, Brandon

My spouse and I were on vacation in August 2023, and our travels took us to Brandon for a night. We were using IHG points and were able to redeem points for our stay here. (We stayed here on a Monday night.) Overall, this is a great hotel... and I was told that it had opened within the past few years or so. It has the newer look/design to it. Our check-in process went smoothly, our room (#315) was clean and comfortable (and spacious), and we loved the amenities. The indoor pool and hot tub were very nice and inviting... and breakfast in the morning was excellent! Plus, we got a pretty good night's sleep too which was, of course, important. We tend to stay at quite a few Holiday Inn Expresses, and this one was definitely one of the best ones we'd ever stayed at. If I ever find myself needing a hotel in Brandon again, I would be happy to stay here again.

Prenotato in pomeriggio e fuori presto il giorno seguente. La stanza era pulita e parcheggio per camion e rimorchio era anche OK. Non abbiamo mangiato al ristorante questa volta, perché c'è un ottimo posto lungo la strada.

The room was clean and the front desk were smiling and helpful. The only remark is that you can hear all the conversations in the rooms on both side and the water noise everytime someone uses the faucets and tub upstairs.

Siamo rimasti qui due volte in una settimana. Nella strada fino al lago Clear, poi di nuovo sulla strada indietro. Le due stanze erano pulite. Il telefono non funzionava nella seconda stanza. Non ne avevamo bisogno, ma io ho detto al dipartimento di fronte quando andavamo via. Potrebbe essere pericoloso se qualcuno dovesse chiamare il 911.Le camere avevano mini frigoriferi e microonde.Nessun produttore di caffè, ma avevano caffè nel lobby tutto il giorno. Il primo giorno lavoravano nella stanza che mangiava, così abbiamo dovuto mangiare nella nostra stanza, un po' inquietante, con bacon, uova, patate, macchina da waffle, muffin, ecc. (Il secondo giorno avevano salsicce invece di bacon e la stanza era aperta.) Il server alimentare era molto amichevole. Aveva una guardia di sicurezza 24 ore. Non si sa se fosse normale, perché ci erano persone che rimase lì dalle incendie al nord. L'uomo di manutenzione è andato sopra e oltre per recuperare il mio orecchio di diamante dalla drenaggio del bacino quando l'ho accidentalmente gettato. Grazie tante!!!! Anche loro hanno facilitato la nostra richiesta di una stanza sul piano principale quanto più vicino possibile ad un'uscita.

We (my husband & I) were on our way back from Montreal (business trip). Trip was Alberta to Montreal & back. We had been on a business/family trip to Toronto just two weeks previously. After spending our money on completely OVER PRICED Best Western/Hampton Inn hotels for most of both trips, I was ready to sleep in our truck instead of another one for our last hotel stay! We didn’t use pools/fitness rooms/laundry facilities , yet were paying ridiculous prices for those “amenities”! Not to mention that the Hampton Inn DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY BREAKFAST for $200+! We had stayed at the “CANAD INNS” in Brandon, MB on our way East for the first stop on our first trip, with our children. THAT was such a horrible experience, so much so that after bringing our experience /events to management, they refunded our hotel charge! SO, when I reluctantly looked for a hotel on the last stop of our second trip, (14 hours per day of driving each way for 6-8 days), even though I was seriously considering sleeping in our truck to avoid yet another high priced hotel stay, I FOUND THIS “MOTEL 6” in Brandon, MB! From the wonderful GREETING by both front desk (male) attendants, to the bowl of fresh fruit offered at front desk at check in/check out, to the AMAZING/CLEAN/SPACIOUS HOTEL ROOM, to the SOFT/FLUFFY/XTRA LARGE BATH TOWELS, to the FREE, WELL STOCKED BREAKFAST, to the SUPER LARGE PARKING LOT both for domestic & large commercial trucks (which we had one of each), I ONLY WISH I HAD FOUND THIS HOTEL AT THE BEGINNING OF OUR FIRST TRIP! When I called to inquire for a room (we couldn’t pre-book on our way back as the condition of the commercial truck we purchased was unsure), the front desk stated they were out of rooms with one king/queen bed, so he could offer Us a room with TWO Queen beds for same price! SOLD! We had been paying $150-200-+ for 13 (2 separate trips) of our previous hotel room stays! MOTEL 6 came to $115 all in! I am so in regret for having not found MOTEL 6 to have been able to (when applicable) stay at this hotel (it’s a hotel, not motel as in name), for most of our stays! THANK YOU to the GM of this hotel (whom I believe was the one who checked Us in, as we came in just before 10pm & he was there the next morning again at our checkout!)! You & your other front desk staff, both at check in & check out, made Us feel WELCOME whereas many of the front desk staff at many of our previous hotel stays (for $150-200+?) DID NOT DO SO! I have since told family members of mine in Manitoba about this hotel & asked them to spread the word about this wonderful MOTEL 6! (If they don’t require many amenities for a stay)! We travel to MB to visit family members (not as much as we should), & we will be sure to ONLY be staying at this MOTEL 6 in Brandon, MB, when we require!

We came to this hotel for a hockey tournament. and we were booked into it by the tournament organizer. This was a huge mistake for the tournament cause this hotel is not team and family friendly. They close the pool at 9:30pm for adult time (which meant no one used it after 9:30pm), you are not allowed any food or covered drink including water in the pool area. They refused to keep the lounge space attached to their breakfast room open at any point for kids or parents to be in. There is a small lounge with four chairs in the front lobby for people to be in but it’s not nearly enough space for the size of the hotel. This poor girls volleyball team sat in this tiny space to have a team dinner and over three quarters of them were on the floor. If you are coming with a team expect to be in your room the entire time as the expectations of this hotel force it to be this way.

Stagione di notte, con letti splendidi in un bellissimo B&B. Buon colazione. Scurta strada per il parco nazionale con grande passeggiata marshland.
