Capt. Thomson's offers a wonderful getaway with breathtaking views of Boldt Castle and the St. Lawrence River from the rooms. The remodeled rooms are clean, modern, and cozy, making for an enjoyable stay. The staff is accommodating and friendly, enhancing the experience. However, dining options nearby could be improved despite the proximity to restaurants.
The rooms were outstanding, spacious, and offered a breathtaking view of the river and Boldt Castle, making our stay delightful.
The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff who went out of their way to assist us during our stay.
The location is ideal, right next to the marina and directly across from Boldt Castle, making sightseeing effortless.
Dining options were within easy walking distance, but the selections could be a bit more varied.
The facilities, including the well-maintained pool area and firepit, contributed to a relaxing atmosphere.

I had a great time at this resort. The views from my room were stunning, and it was really nice to relax on the balcony. The room itself was clean and beautifully decorated. The staff made the stay enjoyable with their friendly service. However, there were a few downsides like noise from the room above and some maintenance issues that needed addressing. The dining options could also be expanded, but overall it was a pleasant experience.
The room was spacious and clean with beautiful views of the lake. However, it felt odd being placed right next to the ice machine.
The service was very good and friendly, although there were a few hiccups in housekeeping that detracted from the experience.
The location is ideal right on the St. Lawrence River, and very close to boat tours and local dining.
Dining options were limited, and it would be nice to see more variety in the restaurant offerings.
The amenities were nice, but I really missed having a Jacuzzi available at the pool area.

What a wonderful stay! The hotel is beautifully situated right on the water with amazing views, especially from the balcony where I could see Boldt Castle. The rooms are clean, modern, and comfortable, but the noise from the nearby boat tours in the morning can be a bit disruptive. Overall, it's a perfect spot for relaxation and enjoying the scenery, but it would be even better if the noise issues were addressed.
The rooms were newly remodeled, clean, and comfortable, featuring wood floors and a jacuzzi tub beside the bed for a luxurious touch.
The service was top-notch; everyone was polite and friendly during check-in and made sure I had everything I needed.
The location is ideal, right on the St. Lawrence River, with easy access to boat tours and stunning views of Boldt Castle.
Dining options were great with several restaurants within easy walking distance, adding convenience to my stay.
The amenities were fantastic and well maintained, making my stay even more enjoyable.

My stay at the hotel was a lovely experience overall. The location next to the boat docks and within walking distance to restaurants and shops made it very convenient. The room was decent in size with a comfortable bed, though it could have been cleaner, especially the windows. I enjoyed the views of Boldt Castle and the channel, but the noise from the boats and other guests was noticeable at times. Overall, it was a good value for money, but some areas need improvement.
The room was a good size, featuring comfortable beds and nice views of Boldt Castle. However, cleanliness could be improved as I noticed dust and debris in corners. Also, it only had three hangers available for our clothes.
The service provided was friendly and helpful, particularly when I requested assistance with something in our room. They were polite and attentive to our needs.
The location is ideal, right at the foot of James Street, which made accessing the boat tours, dining options, and shops a breeze. I loved being able to walk to everything.
Dining at the nearby restaurant was very convenient, and the food was enjoyable with reasonable prices. However, I wish there were more choices in the hotel's dining options.
The hotel has nice facilities including a heated pool, but I didn't use them this time. The picnic area looked inviting and I saw guests enjoying it.
