The hotel looks nice with it's fancy lobby and little shops and restaurants, but the rooms themselves are fairly small. When we walked into the room it was like 100 degrees, there was no way to turn the heat down so we had to turn it completely off. Went to shower and the water came out yellow and the absolute... more

This week we spent a night in a deluxe room (#402) with one queen bed (more about that later.) We checked in at 3:30 and requested a corner room, but were told that our room had a view, so we settled for that. We really should have continued to ask for a corner room, as the hotel did not appear... more

Have made at least a half dozen visits to this full service hotel over the past ten years or so. The hotel has charm and historic value; its shops are cherished by my wife. The room rates are reasonable for a hotel of this stature. The Veranda Restaurant has good food and prices - it is now open for dinner... more

I booked the St. James for a weekend get away to celebrate our 30th Anniversary. I wanted a special place to share with my wife and the St. James exceeded all expectations. Our room was exactly as the gent who took my reservation had described it. It was located in the historic part of the hotel built in 1875. The... more

I can't say enough about the hotel, our room and the town. We will... more

After reading previous reviews we initially decided not to stay here. My wife and I own and run a bed and breakfast and decided to take a couple of days off and go take the train out of Redwing. Since the train was leaving in the morning we decided to spend the night in Redwing and just relax. We reviewed... more

This old hotel is located right along a railroad line! The hotel did not mention that there are hourly trains that blow their whisltes all night long, and they do not have any earplugs available. This was the worst night I have ever spent in a hotel - and I am a sound sleeper. To compound the problem, an alarm... more

My wife and I stayed at the St. James for a wedding reception held there too. We requested an early check in because the wedding was at 4 (the same time as check-in) after we called the night before and also called in the morning, there were surprised to see us so early. We arrived @2PM. After waiting for an... more
