Die Lage ist sehr gut. Das Personal ist hilfsbereich.
Das Zimmer 103 ist gewöhnungsbedürftig. Kaum Tageslicht. Die Badtüre war nur schwer zu öffnen und sie hat höllisch gequietscht. Die Türe zur Dusche war nicht dicht.…

Questions about The Ranald Hotel
What time is check-in and check-out at The Ranald Hotel?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does The Ranald Hotel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is breakfast included at The Ranald Hotel?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does The Ranald Hotel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Ranald Hotel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book The Ranald Hotel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
