Closest / best hotel for one night stay

We are pretty fast walkers and it’s way more than 3 minutes. Not sure where they came up with that. It might be a three minute fast jog.

Hello pe0531. Rochester has one hotel in the Downtown area that meets all your needs, Brentwood Inn and Suites. They will have a shuttle for you to use if the walk is too much but are connected as well. Also, they have free parking and breakfast. I have been told by many patients that the staff there are very helpful and kind. If you don’t mind being a little father out, there is Aspen Suites, next to Saint Marys. The Aspen has all the things you are looking for as well as a shuttle that can bring you over to the Gonda for your appointments. Another location that meets all your needs is Comfort Inn and Suites. They too are a little farther out, about 4 miles, but have a shuttle that can bring you in as well. If the hotel does not allow you to have a later check out time, be sure to ask when you book, there is an Information Desk on the Lobby Level of Gonda that will hold you bags until you are done with your appointments.

Thanks so much for taking the time to send this helpful info!

Thank you!

There is a hotel across the street, literally 20 steps and you can walk using the underground when snowing.
It’s called the Kahler I believe. We stayed there, their is a restaurant also.

I stayed at the Kahler hotel 2x in 2019 for 1 week each time.
I didn't have a car so parking wasn't a problem. I did have to go to St. Mary's for an early morning brain procedure and took an Uber because the temperature was below 0.
I had no problems with the hotel and it was very convenient to my appointments, restaurants and stores.

We stayed in August at Townbridge Suites, a type of Marriott. It was very new, very clean had breakfast included i think only open till 9:30 though. Quiet, The self-serve breakfast had make your own waffles, eggs, bacon or sausage, three or four cereals, oatmeal , bananas and other carryable fruit, yogurt, and milk and premade juices. There is also a coffee shop with pastries in the lobby. It was about a couple block walk to the Methodist and Gonda buildings.- Not connected. We found it easier to leave our car at the hotel and walk.
The room had double queen beds plenty of pillows, which is useful to me because I'd had arm surgery. There were ceramic not paper, plates glasses and utensils, an induction cooking surface that we did not use. A note said that they have all sorts of cooking equipment free to borrow . A decent size refrigerator. Furnishings were basic. But this place more than served our needs for a one-night stay before morning appointments. 601 2nd st SW, staff was very pleasant. Good ac.
Before that, when going to St Mary's, we stayed at an Aspen Suites, which was more basic but just fine for an overnight stay.Ample self-serve breakfast. It did have a pool, which we did not use, games &books available a fireplace in the lobby. It was basically across the street from St Mary's. Paking structure there was a bit tighter.
Good Luck

We did not ask about late checkout, but we packed our bags and put them in the car and Townplace staff had no problem with our leaving our car in their structure for the afternoon. We sat in the lobby without any issue. Several other patrons sat for hours in the Spyhouse Roasters coffee shop

Me and my dog juss got back from mayo. Stayed at kahler ins and suites. 118.00 was our mayo rate. 150.00 extra for a dog. Location was awesome. Rite across the street from gonda and charlton etc slept great

Stayed at Sonesta Gainey Ranch, Scottsdale. 4 room suite with full kitchen. Sprouts nearby and Devine restaurants in next door shopping Gainey Ranch. Rented a compact car at airport. Also rested mobility electric scooter. They valet park at Mayo Clinic.
The Sonesta at Mayo has no restaurant and soooo far out. The Gainey Ranch Sonesta has free breakfast abs Happy Hour. The pool is really quite lovely. I stayed extra days as a heart patient and glad because I had extra tests. The trip went well, I would advise to get a map of Scottsdale before you go unless you know the City. The hotel advises Ubers if you don’t have car.
Restaurant Village Tavern is really good (next door to hotel).
