The hotel was beautifully renovated and our room was gorgeous. A good size with all the conveniences you would want in a hotel with a small kitchen. I’m overly sensitive to hotel cleanliness and the Dorchester exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly kind, and went above & beyond for a special birthday surprise for me. I would highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for accommodations in downtown Collingwood!
