Our room was a bit dated but not a big deal at all. It was very clean and great view of Front Harbour of Lunenburg. Had a great breakfast and supper at the restaurant downstairs with friendly and helpful staff.

Had one of the "Crow" suites, was awesome view, room was spacious,clean, and comfortable. We were off season so most amenities in the area were closed. The restaurant in the hotel was open and food was good. I would stay here again, in a flash.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The hot water came after they had someone look into it. The room was spacious with a waterfront view but the furnishing was outdated and not very practical. The fridge kept making noises. And there’s no free parking.
