Very comfortable rooms
September 18, 2014We booked here last minute (30 minutes before arrival) on the last leg of our tour of Nova Scotia. The room was easily one of the nicest places we stayed on our whole trip. The only drawback was that there was a delay securing our reservation since we booked via Expedia last minute -- the reservation hadn't been received yet by hotel staff when we arrived, so there was a bit of confusion as the... more

Great hotel
August 21, 2014Was pleasantly surprised when we checked in. The outside could use a little updating, but the rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful and the meals in the restaurant were some of the best we had on the entire trip to Nova Scotia. I would highly recommend the hotel.

Enjoying a good Canadian breakfast
August 18, 2014While I have not stayed at the Inn because I have a home in the area, I do come to the Inn for meals which are excellent, especially breakfast. They are hearty compared to our American ones. I enjoy the company of my family and friends there. The service and the atmosphere are excellent.

Motel is on the main st in Antigonish. Convenient for everything in the town.
