    Pros +

    • The location was great as it was close to everything we needed.
    • The location and food was very good.
    • The location is ideal for walking to restaurants, coffee shops, waterfront and across from the information center.

    Cons -

    • The price of this room was over the top. We were so surprised by the bed!! It was absolutely terrible!! The bed was hard and my husband and I both woke up with a bad back. The furniture, pictures, and overall decor was dated.
    • It may sound petty however for the money you pay however I found the rooms were not overly clean, I also found the towels to be extremely thin and small, on the second day they only gave us one towel, we had to go and ask for more, no blow dryer.
    • Room full of flies and restaurant not open

    Location is close to restaurants and shops.

    After we started to check in with the hostess, she took a call and left us waiting for a while as she dealt with making a reservation for someone. I’ve never had that poor experience while checking into a lodging before. Also the room appears not to be updated in decades.

    The staff was friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the live music in the restaurant. The room was well organized and comfortable. It is a lovely, well maintained hotel.

    It's an older hotel so the rooms aren't as soundproof as they could be.

    Weird smell in room. It’s an old building, loud water pipes. Loud enough to wake a person up in the morning.

    9UnknownPosted on: 10-19-2025

    Perfect location for attending Celtic Colours events. Spinach salad in restaurant was excellent, and the live music added to the charm.

    It’s an beautiful old hotel so the walls between rooms are a bit less soundproof than some places.

    Super friendly staff!! Great rooms. Nice jacuzzi tub in the room.

    6CharlesPosted on: 10-17-2025

    convenient location

    old, tired rooms. hard mattresses

    10AndrewPosted on: 10-17-2025

    Super location. Quiet and comfortable. Elegant in an understated way.

    Not a problem for us because we are strong and healthy but there are no elevators to the second floor.

    Great location, clean, good dinner options

    9GerriPosted on: 10-10-2025

    Perfect location in Baddeck, lovely staff. Dinner in their restaurant was excellent.

    No issues

    5MarcelPosted on: 10-9-2025

    It was clean. The location was good.

    Room that we were given had squeaky beds. We were given a handicapped room which we did not ask for. And the balcony we were sitting underneath electrical cables, which was not acceptable.

    10KimberleyPosted on: 10-8-2025

    Beautiful spot! Excellent location! Walk everywhere to food and music. Excellent food. Highly recommend

    5RichardPosted on: 10-7-2025

    Location was excellent. Atmosphere was nice

    Bed was uncomfortably hard. Television was very poor and no channel selection

    9CarlPosted on: 10-7-2025

    Location was great . Had supper at their restaurant the food was good and there was a gentleman singing who was very goo

    9Lee A.Posted on: 10-4-2025

    The rooms were clean and comfortable, staff was friendly and helpful. Being at the base of the Cabot Trail was great!

    We could not get into the main restaurant which we found odd being a Wednesday night and that we were guests of the hotel. We were put in a room off to the side. There was entertainment in the main dining room and we would’ve loved to enjoyed that. In our opinion, preference should be given to guests of the hotel. Our second night we decided to go out.

    This is a charming old inn across the street from nightly ceilidh music gatherings. The dining room is classic with excellent food. All in all a great place to spend the evening.

    Like many older buildings in the Canada, the number of electric outlets is less than the device laden traveler inevitably wishes were present and they are usually located in places necessitating traveling with a short extension cord. But the savvy traveler will have work arounds for this sort of thing.

    Nice room. Great restaurant and musician. Great Location.

    Balcony off room and furniture needs to be updated. A little pricey.
