I really appreciated Michelle's warm welcome, and the fact that my dinner was ready for me when I arrived after a chaotic day and whiteknuckle drive in the rain. It was both comforting and delicious. The place was beautiful and historic, and my room very peaceful. And the fact that there is live music 36 5 days a year is brilliant!

Beautiful place The lobby was in the middle of the restaurant. I thought it was waiting area to be seated in the restaurant, but then found out it was to sign into the lobby of the hotel. They don’t have a designated area for checking in.

Quaint Inn

This hotel is a quaint cute Inn nestled in a town of Westport. The entrance way takes you back to the late 1800's. Our 2nd floor room had a great view of the Upper Rideau Lake. The hotel was clean, accommodating and staff was friendly. We ate at the Cove Inn restaurant where there was a great live band. Highly recommend this hotel and a fun weekend spot if you are traveling around Westport

The building is historical, nice property. Beautiful area and super cute town. The room was nice, although for the price I would like to have a real breakfast. I don't know if they do that on weekdays, but I was there overnight on Saturday and got two muffins in the fridge and coffee. I think it's worth it for the experience.

The lake view room I had booked was not available however the staff dealt with mix up professionally and promptly, and we were offered a voucher towards the cost of dinner which we thought was fair. Meal was great service from Alex was excellent. Alternative room was lovely a little traffic noise in the morning but nothing terrible. A great music venue with lots of bands advertised would love to return.
