A decent stay option in Baddeck, Cabot Trail
The stay was decent overall. The room was fine and had the basics we needed, and the location was convenient. Nothing fancy, but it worked for a short trip.

Long Family Maritimes Road Trip
Great place to stay in our long road trip, a bit pricey for what it’s including the breakfast that needs a bit of an upgrade.
Other than that I would say that the atmosphere was very calm and friendly.

Staff were very friendly, but property is dated…
Staff were very friendly, but property is dated and very basic, good launch point for the Cabot Trail though. Breakfast was included but was also very basic.

This property has so much potential, but requires a lot of maintenance. For an overnight sleep it was ok. The beds were comfortable.

Je ne recommande pas cet hôtel.
Les serviettes sont tachées et la literie aurait besoin d’être renouvelée et la chambre en entier a besoin de beaucoup d’amour.

Major Reno and maintenance!
This was a stopover before and after we ventured onto the Cabot Trail. The property is old and the rooms are freshly painted, but that’s it, the rooms need a major update from the furniture to the TV and the bathroom counter. The landscaping around the main office needs a major trimming and weeding. These areas are often neglected and it gives an overall reflection of how they take care of the property.

I came back to the Ceilidh Lodge after I was impressed by my experience last year and was equally impressed this year. Staff are so kind and helpful. I love the view of the water from my room. Beds are comfortable and rooms are clean. Absolutely my first choice of places to stay in Baddeck.
