A nice property. Since we were only there one night, we did not explore the area.

We had stayed at the lodge in June and had a 10/10 experience. This time was a little different. We were met with a 25 dollar resort fee which was reinstated the day before our arrival and was not disclosed to us prior to providing our credit card. Hotel guests were primarily not wearing markings or practicing social distancing. Both which were non issues on our previous visit.

Amenities were great. Pool and game rooms fun for kids. Had to walk to other hotel outside to get to pool and restaurants though. Restaurants are expensive for what you get. Food is good though. Room was plain and could use some updating.

Usually this hotel is great. This weekend was extremely busy, which was expected, but the food service at Forte's for breakfast was horrible. I think it was just our server because it looked like other tables were getting served, but we had a toddler and a baby, and it seemed they put us all together in a hidden corner and forgot about us. Not impressed.

We got upgraded to the Crosswaters Resort so I can't specifically say how Mount Kids was. It did seem to be very family friendly so I'm glad we were moved as we went for a couples retreat.

Great mountain location BUT the facilities (Manor) requires updating or better cleaning. Simple cleaning like grout cleaning in bathtub would make huge difference. Re-siliconing in bathroom is desperately required and it is utterly surprising that in a so called 3+ hotel it isn’t. New pool facility is great but access is pathetic. It’s a fully self use environment yet it doesn’t become operational until 8:00. That’s absolutely ridiculous. This needs to be fully operational (hot tub/steam room and sauna) at least at 6:00 AM. Late checkin - 4:00PM and early checkout 11:00 makes for a less than one day stay for high price.

Clean, neat and a good location to the main lodge and the Nordic Spa. Unfortunately our key cards stopped working a few times prompting trips back to the main lodge reception desk, and the thermostat wasn’t working in our room leading to an uncomfortable night in a very hot room.

The loft style of our room was really nice. The mini fridge was a good size (though a microwave would have been a nice addition). Great location and price for what you get- though if you don't like dogs or children, I wouldn't recommend it. However, the Nordic Spa is 18 so we had plenty of "escape". Loved the spa and that staying here offers you a discount. We did request a do not disturb sign and wine glasses which were never delivered over our 3 night stay and the hallways were always littered with cutlery/dishes and appliances. Overall, a decent place with lots of spaces to relax.

Unreal that they can even keep Mt Kidd Manor even open! Moldy ceilings, unkept patios, cold showers, filthy carpets, 80’s furniture that should be thrown out, Moldy showers and terrible smells from the rooms unkept cleanliness... no idea why they even keep this place open it’s embarrassing tithe entire resort.

The room was $322 per night, we were unable to check in till 4pm and have to check out by 11am, thats only 19 hours, not even a full day stay. The rooms were run down and old, this room at best is only worth $150 per night. In room amenities were sub standard. Check in arrangements were very difficult and confusing in the dark. Would not recommend.

I have stayed here many times before but unfortunately this stay didn’t go well. The room was great but the bathroom door didn’t close or lock and there were 2 lightbulbs burnt out and the outlet by the bed didn’t work. I would have complained and changed rooms if we were staying for longer than one night. We went for dinner in the Cedar room and our server Stuart was amazing. Unfortunately the food was not, the Brie appetizer came out with plastic in it and the steak was burnt instead of medium well. Not to mention we waited over an hour for our appetizers, this made for a 2.5 hour dinner and we were not able to take advantage of the other amenities since it took so long. Not sure why since there were only 6 tables occupied. The worst part was the wrong credit card was authorized during check in and the front desk staff assured me it was not them that used my visa (that I had left at home). So I immediately called and cancelled my card and after more investigation it turns out the front desk authorized my visa debit instead of the credit card provided at check in. A real pain in the butt since now I have to change my card info on 10 places that I normally have it saved to. Not great right before Xmas. But I was offers free breakfast for 2 next time I come, not sure if that’s a justification for a crappy experience but I will stay again since it’s my husbands favourite hotel.

Book one of the newer buildings in the resort
Mount Kidd manor rooms are horrifying. The photos on hotels.com are a far stretch from the rooms you get when you arrive. Cross waters resort where you check in is beautiful. We were looked after by the manager Liam and he gave us a much nicer room in cross water resort. We will 100% come back to the resort but just won’t book in Mount Kidd!

This property is quite old, expensive for the issues we had. The room was almost 30C when we arrived (glad we had early check-in) in could not have slept in that. The guests time we flushed the toilet the water cave port of the tank and it didn't flush. To resolve that issue it took 3 requests. The beds were adequate. The morning we went to leave we first went out for breakfast. Upon returning to our room we could not get break into our room. Weathered 20 after 2 asks for Sunshine to come with a master key. That didn't work. An hour after our first ask we were able to get our stuff out of the room however to late to gain access to the first come first serve spa.

I stayed at Mount Kidd Manor in September. The temperature outside was right around 5 degrees. We arrived at our room and it was incredibly hot. The thermostat read over 30 degrees. We turned off the heater, turned off the fireplace and left out balcony door open for two straight days and 2 straight nights. The entire time the room was incredibly hot and uncomfortable. The TV in our room did not work. I called the front desk 3 times over the course of our stay. Nobody ever came to the room to even have a look at the TV. Upon checkout the Manager decided to give me a refund of $$100 for my resort fee. I spent $1100 on rooms and resort fees and all they could do after our stay was refund $100. The resort is absolutely beautiful, the food is good but pricey, you are 100% paying for the location. I would recommend that if you are going to stay at the resort, book one of the other more expensive hotels.
