"The dome itself was lovely and well situated on the water. The bed was uncomfortable, but the linens were clean. I was very disappointed in the facilities. I have no issues with using a pit toilet, however you must provide some running water for guests. The only way I was able to fill up water bottles was to ask the people at the lodge to go into the kitchen to fill my water bottles. I was also incredibly disgusted by the showers at Cabot Shores.

Holiday Inn Sydney - Waterfront by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay! The staff were all very helpful and welcoming and we felt very well taken care of. Our room was clean and beautiful and we loved the harbour view from our room. We rented a car to tour the island and there was ample parking. Although it was easy walking distance to restaurants and pubs and a variety of shops."

Kelly's View Motel

8/10 Good

"The room in need of updating. Toilet very low. The room itself was very dark, the mattress needs to be changed. There was air conditioning. The availability of restaurants not handy at all. Nice restaurant and bakery close but was closed Mon-Tues and not opened until 11:00 am Wednesday. Snacks available at front desk. The lady running motel was very friendly and helpful. Not expensive so it is what it is."

Travels Inn Victoria County

8/10 Good

"Clean room and nice location away from the busy towns. 15 mins to the Cabot Trail, 25 to Baddeck. Three outdoor fire pits with plenty of seating for all. Housekeeping on request, very helpful and quick to respond. There is a trade off with the lower price, there is no microwave or coffee maker, there is a small spot around the corner that makes great coffee called Dans Things. We stayed six nights and bout a cheap electric kettle at Walmart 20 mins away in Sydney. Fridge and AC worked great. I would stay here again!"
