My husband and I used a "Wag Jag Jaunt" to get a great deal at The Old Mill for one night in September, 2011. It was a 'babymoon' for us (I was 6 months pregnant) and also my 30th birthday. The room we had was very nice, with a king-sized bed, whirlpool tub and a view... of the subway station. Ah well.
The Wag Jag had also come with a voucher for dinner, and we chose to eat in the piano bar, as opposed to the main restaurant, which they said was busier, and thus louder. The menu was interesting, with a number of twists on pub food (grilled cheese with brie, etc). My husband and I enjoyed dinner, but when the entertainment started (jazz combo) we found it to be a little loud and moved into the back room where we could hear ourselves talk.
The next day I had a massage in the spa, which was great! They even had someone who did pregnancy massages, which was especially worth it!
While I had my massage, my husband explored the grounds and buildings at the Old Mill, and then he took me around afterwards. It was really neat to see all of the old-style buildings and rooms that have been restored to look like they would have a hundred or so years ago, and there were some neat garden areas that we also enjoyed... but...
There were OVER 14 WEDDING-RELATED EVENTS GOING ON. Yes, 14. Everywhere we turned, there was another wedding party having photographs where we would have liked to wander, or take pictures, or hang out... When we explored the main building, almost every room was set up, or being set up for a wedding, bridal/baby shower, or other event. Which is fine, because we did choose to go on a weekend, but there really isn't anything else to do, or anywhere else to go if you're not part of a wedding. We were constantly turning around, trying to avoid being in someone else's wedding photos, and waiting our turn to take pictures in front of the fountain, etc.
Don't get me wrong, the Old Mill is a great location in the middle of Toronto with some really picturesque spots, excellent staff and great rooms, but there really isn't much to do on site, and there's even less when they book 14 weddings on one weekend, to perhaps the detriment of the other paying guests.

We have booked the old Mill for a wedding reception. we thought this could be a nice elegant venue .

We were initially excited with the atmosphere, the old setting and booked the hall for a wedding this year . However, when we are seriously checking the place to decorate for the upcoming wedding, we found out furnitures disgusting, in really bad condition and appearance . some furnitures are similar to old basement furnitures they are awful!!!

Pianos in the hall are disgusting, with wood cracks, needs at least to give it some polish or restoration , a grand piano would be great to see in this place , not worn out, unpleasant appearance of pianos that you would not even dare to touch . antique furnitures need to be restored and refinish Mix and match of furnitures in the hall is unacceptable, they should get an interior decorator and update this place. Frames are cheap and needs to be replaced .

We wanted to get a pianist for the hall but this piano is disgusting and the wood cracks are all over the piano. would rather have it covered than get someone to play this instrument.

We are hoping they would get this updated before this summer of 2012

Unfortunately we can no longer back out as it is late and cannot refund the downpayment. Hope something will be done before the summer this year to make us proud of the venue for my son's wedding.

Truly a pleasant experience, a home away from home. I travel frequently on business to all the provinces and this is my favorite spot. It has beautiful surroundings, clean and comfy beds with a team of friendly staff to make each stay so enjoyable.

Who says you need to travel out of the city for a relaxing getaway. My wife and I recently purchased a Jaunt getaway to the Old Mill that turned out to be a nice romantic break for a busy couple. Since we live only 5 minutes away the travel time didn't cause any stress to our mini vacation. A trip to the spa, an afternoon nap (the Inn is very quiet), dinner and dancing followed by a nightcap and jazz made for quite an evening. The rooms are nice, the food is good and overall the service met our expectations.
