Staff are wonderful and very helpful. Having the shuttle service was so convenient and made going out for dinner very easy. Nice to have coffee available in the lobby in the morning and having breakfast included is great. The lobby is a bit tired but comfortable.

Very dissappointed on breakfast starting at 8:00 a.m. We had to leave before 8:00 both mornings so very disappointing. Also, 4:00- 5:00 wine tasting, same wine both days and when you don't like Chardonnay but want white, you were out of luck both days.

The property is conveniently located to the lakeshore and all NOTL has to offer. This property has seen better days. Interior decor and furnishings are tired, worn and needs updating. Front of house staff could use a refresher on customer service. Housekeeping staff were very nice and helpful. The shower leaked all over the bathroom floor and had mold, TV was like 15years old and not Smart TV so no streaming options. WIFI is extremely slow. Breakfast was mediocre at best. We ended up only eating breakfast on morning during our 3 day stay and opted for the Stagecoach restaurant instead. (Which was delicious and very welcoming) There are way better boutique options in NOTL area, that we would choose on our next trip. Choose wisely!

Friendly staff in a dated hotel
Helpful and friendly staff and a lovely clean room. We felt that the hotel was very dated and in need of a major upgrade. Because of this we didn’t feel that it offered good value for money.
