Oscars Night, Upgraded
Pros:

We absolutely love the Retro Suites! The atmosphere is amazing, and the décor is so unique—there’s always something interesting to take in. It’s the perfect meeting spot for our family, especially since we’re spread between Windsor and Sarnia. This has officially become our new annual overnight destination to gather and watch the Oscars—such a fun tradition in the making!

Cutest Boutique
Pros:

I love this hotel. The details throughout this building is amazing. Minutes away from the Capitol theater. Our meal in the restaurant was also 5 star.

Best stay!!
Pros:

The folks at Retro suites are very friendly more than accommodating.
We had a family emergency which was almost two weeks. They made space for us to stay the entire time without room adjustments!
Rooms are beautiful, clean and spacious.
I can't say enough about the Retro Suites.. I would highly recommend to anyone travelling to Chatham.
Thanks again to the entire staff and management at the Retro Suites.
We will be back

I attended an event that took place in the hotel. It's a beautiful adapted reuse.
Pros:

Breakfast was well stocked and just off of the lobby.

Cons:

The room was very hot when I first entered but that was easily managed and there was absolutely nothing to complain about.

Amazing hotel !!
Pros:

What a shocking discovery ! This hotel is simply amazing. The lobby is ultra cool, the rooms are all different, the decor is wild and I loved it !

Quiet, large rooms, great staff all surrounded by the coolest collections of microphones, album covers, posters, painting, art...too much to write about.

Amazing coffee machine in lobby...antique vending machines, model cars, neon lights.....

Wow...this place is awesome !!

Very enjoyable!
Pros:

The hotel was beautifully decorated. It was immaculately clean, and very comfortable. The continental breakfast included a large variety of items, more than expected. We walked from the hotel to a nice downtown restaurant for dinner, which we appreciated after being on the road most of the day.

Cons:

There was only one chair in the room; a second one would have been nice.
