Upon visiting the TEN Spa, I was dismayed to find out that the hundreds of water bottles given out complimentary are NOT recycled but rather thrown out. I know this from overhearing staff members discussing this, as well as some issue they were having with the management . The front desk was cold and left much to be admired. Staff seemed ...

Changing My Venue
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/29/09
What a gem! I travel often and have stayed at most of the old 'rail road' hotels across Canada and found the Hotel Fort Garry to be full of the charm and elegance I anticipated. The staff were professional and well informed about the hotel and amenities, the rooms (I've stayed in 5 different rooms to date) have all been different ...

I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/04/08
I loved the Ft. Garry Hotel. The staff were excellent, the food good but the best thing were the feather beds...couldn't wait to get in bed at night...so comfy and we slept fantastic!! It has been renovated but still has kept its class. Very romantic hotel, close to train station, restaurants etc. Wish we had a reason to visit Winnipeg again....just to go to the Ft. Garry Hotel!!

Terrible Food Service
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/23/07
My friend had booked the brunch over a month ago with reservations for 11:30, didn't get seated until 11:45 and to be upstairs! When making the reservation my friend stated that we needed to be seated down stairs as I had knee surgury and could not do the steps, they said there is an elvator!! Yes there is an elevator but it took me less time ...
This is my favorite hotel in Winnipeg! The public areas have an elegant ambience and the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The hotel is close to downtown so it is easy to do shopping or sight seeing. The breakfasts are delicious (especially the Sunday Buffet). Overall, I feel the price is very reasonable for the quality of the service, the location, and the ambience.
I will always choose the Fort Garry!

best hotel ever
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/26/07
My wife and I have stayed in hundreds of hotels, and the Fort Garry is by far the loveliest. In no other hotel have we been treated to feather beds, down duvets, oodles of feather pillows, all in snowy white linen. The towels are unbelievable. Breakfast in the morning in the dining room makes one feel like royalty. We especially enjoy the piano ...

Not a relaxing experience
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/29/07
With all the hype over the Ten Spa at the Hotel Fort Garry my girlfriend and I decided to check in to a spa getaway package at the hotel.Upon our arrival the front desk was the first impression of this hotel(neither of us stayed there before). The desk staff seemed unorganized and had no idea what was included in this package, without me telling ...

Maybe...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/24/07
I never actually lived here for a period of time, but, I came here quite often to sleep over at my cousins. I might have been happier, if the occasions were better. We came to visit her before she had to move back to Saudi Arabia, so therefore, we were all pretty upset.
