Four Points by Sheraton Barrie

The staff in the restaurant and bar are what make this place a great place to stay. Dana and Kathryn are very kind and engaging with the guests. They make this lobby bar the place to choose rather than go out somewhere else. They make you feel like family, and these two are what keep me coming back.nThe rooms need decor updating but they are clean and comfortable.

It's not a Four Seasons, but gets the job done. A flickering desk light and dark rooms feel a bit sad.nnRooms are dated, cleaning can be improved. Staff at the reception desk may feel a bit inpatient.

We stayed with two young children on our way home from Georgian Bay. The hotel is located in a great spot, conveniently off the highway. The restaurant off the lobby was excellent - I highly recommend the half-sized California salad!nnThe room, however, was okay. It was clean but there were no water bottles, one TV had no signal and the other would turn off each time you tried to adjust the volume. Also, I tried calling down to the front desk and three times someone picked up and hung up right away. There were also no cribs available only 1 for the entire hotel apparently. Overall, we had a good stay and the saltwater pool was a hit with the kids. I’m not sure I would stay here again due to the poor service, but not a bad spot if you’re in a pinch.

Would not recommend this hotel. First off the rooms had an awful smell - smelt like moldy wet carpet, like they had a flood. We had 3 different rooms booked for a wedding and each room smelt. We were getting married and had to move our outfits to the car as we did not want them to smell. Just like other people mentioned the rooms are not like the photos, outdated and not newly renovated. A staff member had to come in to the room to clean the fridge after we had already checked in.nLastly, I called asking for the biggest suite weeks before the date as it was where I was getting ready and multiple family members had a nicer, bigger and brighter room then I was provided. Would recommend the Hampton in beside the four points as most of our guests had no issues.

I spend about 150 night a year in a hotel, and about 75 of those are spent at the Four Point Sheraton Barrie. With many options to pick from in Barrie I consistently choose the Four Points, not because of the rooms but because of the level of service provided.nnDana & Kathryn at the restaurant are absolutely amazing. The level of service they consistently provide is exceptional.nnThe restaurant is what makes this a must stay when travelling. Whether is just a drink or a full meal, they will make you feel like family.nnIf you are travelling on a Tuesday, make sure to stop by for Best Brews night and try the IPA.
