"We were in Cape Breton for the Celtic Colours festival. The Bras d'Or Lakes Inn was a lovely place to stay. Wendy (front desk) was warm and helpful, the room was clean and comfortable, and the property is pet-friendly. There is a really nice canal walk minutes from the hotel. Highly recommended!"

"The room was clean and serviceable. The woman at check-in was very friendly and pleasant. The property is tired and needs some maintenance (the screen on our front door popped out very easily) but the location was good and we were just travelling through for one night. The price was great."
