Clean and comfortable rooms with everything you need. I must mention though, we stayed during low season so amenities were limited. The restaurant was closed. Coin operated laundry was closed and the ice machine was not operating. Needs convenient store is so close that it is almost in the parking lot and you can see the local pizza shop from your room window so still lots of options. I do love the location and coziness of this hotel even with limited amenities.

This is a good place to stay when in Baddeck. The hotel is within easy walking distance of restaurants and the museum. The rooms are clean and the beds comfortable. However, the walls seem to be thin so they do not block out the talking or snoring from the room next door. Other than this, it is a great spot.

A good stay overall!

The room was spacious and quiet. The beds were comfortable but I wish they had duvets rather than old blankets. Lots of hot water and the shower was excellent. They should update the coffee maker. It was very very slow and the old drip coffee maker. Lots of parking and the restaurant was excellent! Overall good!
