Great location, unfortunately room location wasn't great- horrible view of an office building despite paying for park view, low floor so was awaken by garbage trucks at 6 am and right next to cleaning closet soaods woke is up every morning. I'm sure the hotel could have placed us in another room since we booked and paid in full a week in advance!

The Lord Elgin was a fantastic hotel. We went for Winterlude and it was the perfect location to walk to all the activities. It was also close to many dining options and other activities and a reasonable price as well. Would definitely stay there again!
