The Algonquin Resort St. Andrews by-the-Sea, Autograph Collection

Beautiful hotel and decor! Staff was friendly and extremely helpful!

Clean

The hotel is always excellent. The last of its kind in the province. Aman in the bar was excellent and the breakfast staff also. I’m sure it’s hard to find this kind of employee. Checking in is a vital way to connect with staff . I’m see that options of contactless check in is available but not for all. It makes for a less of an experience for many . I worry that the hotel will become just another empty stop along the way. The hotels history is important.

No mushroom toast for breakfast . A small thing , but if it’s on the menu it should be available. The avocado toast option was a soggy mess. Eggs need to be added at the last minute to prevent this. And the toast should have been sourdough as it holds itself well. My sunshine breakfast was good though.

The property and staff were wonderful. Pool was huge and nice temperature but, no change rooms or private showers. Could use a lot of beautifying - quite bleak.

The king room was a total disappointment. So small, the dolly to unload luggage wouldn't fit through narrow door or make the turn with a wall immediately in front. Nowhere to move or place luggage. Only room enough for one person to move between end of bed and tv unit. One hard kitchen chair and one small other one at a tiny table 2' off the floor unable to even hold a laptop. Unable to move in bathroom space, no counter space - door didn't even open fully. No robes. Coffee too awkward in drawer below TV. Room terribly uncomfortable in every way for two people. Definitely not a treat. Would not return for that reason or that price.

Clean. Beautiful view

Staff were great. Clean building. History and character of the building. The ambiance and friendliness.

The bathroom was very small and cramped.
