I have stayed here a number of times and it is always a pleasure. It is such an interesting Inn. The rooms are lovely and the staff are very nice and helpful. It is a wonderful location. I will continue to stay here on my travels to Cobourg.

It was a lot of fun. We chose this place for the haunted aspect. Didn't see anything but you never know right? The beds are a little stiff and the internet was sketchy but there was a storm the night before. Some nice trails around.

Front door locked and had to call to check in

The room temp was too warm in the transition from winter to spring, and the Cat and Fiddke forgot to discount our bill.

I loved the old vibe of the place abd recommend that the museum information be accessible to hotel guests, or at least some of it, to read more about the history of where we are staying. The reception was very friendly and I was impressed with what Cobourg has done with its waterfront.

Accessibility to the facility upon arrival was not ideal. All doors were locked and we did not immediately see the sign on the front door to call a number upon arrival. Before seeing the phone number on the front door, we tried the King George main phone number on their website and got an answering machine. It would have been helpful to have access to the check in phone number via email confirmations, ahead of time. The room was a little too warm. There were no face cloths in washroom. There was a lack of counter space in the washroom and a tub option would have been nice.

We liked the location and character of the room. We were given an option of room choices upon arrival.

Nothing to dislike

Everything, I've stayed her before, so it's my go-to in Cobourg. The location is excellent to walk up town and visit shops or have a drink and our meal at the many pubs/ bars and restaurants.

The bed was quite uncomfortable

It was central to everywhere we wanted to go which was great. We were able to walk everywhere. The value was great and our room had everything we needed

Windows didn't have curtains, was woken up very early.

Nice hotel, nice museum

Room was too warm and no in room thermostat control.

I know there is a general kitchen for guests. However, I do wish each room had a small fridge and coffee maker.

I have stayed here a few times. I enjoy the various types of rooms which are very nice. The staff are lovely and it is a great location - moments from the lake. I highly suggest this Inn.

Unfortunately, I booked this hotel because I was in town for a skating competition in Baltimore, ON and every other hotel was unavailable. My room had no shower (just a bathtub), no microwave, a TV remote that didn't work, and a broken door lock. You also needed to call someone to check in and you have to use a key to open the front door of the hotel. Again, these things may have been "charming" if I had been staying there under different circumstances.

If I had booked this hotel because I was visiting the Coburg area with my wife and we were looking for a hotel stay in an unique and charming location, then I think my impression of this hotel would have been better. The rooms are definitely unique, and the location is fantastic, as you are merely a few steps from restaurants, parks, waterfront, etc.

I would have appreciated having access to breakfast-type food in the morning at the hotel (something like fresh coffee, muffins, croissants and yogurt). Cobourg being a relatively small town, none of the nearby restaurants (i.e., within walking distance) were open at 7am, as I wanted to eat before the planned departure of my train at 8am.

My room was clean, comfortable and cosy, and the hotel is centrally located, within walking distance of the train station (about a 15-minute walk). The manager who greeted me upon my arrival was very friendly and eager to help.

Internet didn’t work so smart tv didn’t work.

Close walk to pubs, cozy room

Stayed in January 2024

It was not very accessible and we had to go up and down stairs with our luggage which was challenging at times

The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s lovely, clean and bright. The jail section is a unique experience and one that we absolutely loved.

The tv reception was terrible and the hot water took a long time to get to the shower. Everything else was excellent!

Perfect location for everything we did.

There was only one set of keys available for our room

Quiet, comfortable large rooms in a great location.

The problem always is ‘expectation and reality’ … we had expected a bustling, fun bar with rooms and got rather a mausoleum! Perhaps at high season it is all we had expected, sadly not the case for our visit! Only one night though and we slept well on a comfortable, clean bed!

Obviously this has been a much loved hotel, but now feels rather dated. Perhaps it’s their season end , but It looked completely dark and locked up on our arrival -we had to knock and ring the bell for several minutes before a very nice lady arrived to show us to our room. The room was large, warm, very clean but decor somewhat dated. No bar or dining facilities… not what we had expected as it looked liked a bar with rooms in Booking.com pictures! We were clearly the only guests in the place which made it slightly weird! (My husband kept calling it ‘Bates Motel!) The ‘receptionist’ recommended a great nearby Italian restaurant for dinner, and there was no breakfast option. Rather a strange experience all round!

Loved the history!

Stayed in November 2023

Heated by a boiler. The room was very hot for sleeping and there was no way to control the heat. Also it took a very long time for hot water to get to the bathroom taps. I found it quite wasteful to have to run the water for so long.

My room was very nice, with updated Victorian-style decor with a 3 piece ensuite.

They aren’t very clear on when check out time is and just knock on your door and ask if you’re staying another day

The Jail exhibit was pretty cool and also just the building itself

Stayed in October 2023

There were great restaurants within walking distance, and there is a missed opportunity to connect the hotel with other great local locations and attractions. This was the weekend leading into Halloween - perhaps a local walking ghost tour would be a fun thing to connect with the hotel. I do wish the bathroom had better privacy - our room had a half curtain.

It was a really fun place to stay! My daughter loved the jail bunk bed, and the jail exhibit in the basement. The kids were down there for over an hour! The room was comfortable.

The rooms are lovely and very comfortable. I've stayed here three times and would certainly stay there again. It is a wonderful location. I highly recommend.
