    The food was ok, but overpriced.

    The beautiful view of the Bras d’Or lakes. The lovely dining room, the comfy bed and the spotless condition of the room. The service was excellent.

    On the day of our arrival the hotel restaurant was closed, although a rest day is well deserved it said nothing about it in the ad. Since we have been travelling all day we would have appreciated staying in and eat there, let alone have a quiet drink ending the day - the bar is attached to the restaurant and was therefore closed as well. In such a remote location and in such a big house this came as a serious surprise.

    Very well situated hotel at the city limit of Baddeck. It was very quiet and we had a beautiful view towards the water. The room was big and comfortable with a little terrace and two deck chairs.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    Have returned multiple times to this place -- excellent on many levels. Well cared-for property, comfortable rooms and beds, excellent to have sitting chairs for reading, as well as outdoor chairs on the attached balconies. Restaurant on the property is good for breakfast and dinner. Short walk or drive into Baddeck for other amenities and options. Great view of the water, access to the highway and to the activities on the Cabot Trail.

    Head waitress in dining area was loud and rude-Morning 9/14 -She was abrupt and nasty to us when we entered the dining area. She was nasty and demeaning to her good help who were working the dining room. Other patrons were watching with their disapproval, too.

    Loved the privacy and ease of entry with our belongings.

    Nothing really. Overall it is a great place to stay. We had a day of very wet weather during our two day stay, and the unit felt quite damp - but the weather is what it is!

    We stayed in one of the cabins, which was great for self catering. Well equipped. Nice large room with fantastic view over the sea. Great seating area at the front and back of the property and only a short walk down to the swimming pool and restaurant. We had just one meal in the restaurant, which was excellent both in terms of its quality and presentation. It’s a very short drive to the centre of Baddeck and a co-op supermarket. Great location for access to the Cabot trail and Sydney.

    We were supposed to stay in the cabin but that wasn’t what we wanted. Too small and it was a shared cabin. Family on other side which was noisy. We are a couple so we moved to the Macdonald house and had a 1 bedroom suite which was excellent.

    Location was great. Didn’t have breakfast as it was a buffet and that’s too much food for us.

    The toilet didn’t flush well and the hot water took awhile to heat up. No Kleenex in the room.

    Location was great and the view of the lake. The bed was very comfortable. The pool was also very nice and we enjoyed a swim our first night.

    Air con are uncomfortably very loud. Luckily the room in the West Wing had a quiet ceiling fan so we’re able to turn off the ac at nigh. Not all room have fans.

    Reception staff were very accommodating ( and I’ve had several requests 😃) and always made me feel welcomed. The views from our room was fabulous.
