Top Pictou Island Hotel Reviews

Travelodge Suites by Wyndham New Glasgow

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. We had a ground floor room with access from the parking lot which was advantageous. The on draw back was noise from Highway 104 since we right off the exit. The breakfast had several options."

The Scotsman Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful delightful couple who truly love their property and enjoy hosting their guests. Pack light there is no elevator as stated - very walkable to the harbour and shopping"

Riverside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This was a very nice, clean.... room? More of a B&B, but without that second B! Just a room. There was a note about a kitchen with a "Continental" breakfast. Picture showed cereal. But we left early and I couldn't find the kitchen! Everything about the room was great, tho. Except, no closet. Even so, I would recommend."

Smith Rock Chalets & Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay! The chalet was very clean, well maintained, and comfortable. We got one of the biggest chalets on the property, which was great for our group. We didn’t get much time to explore the property, so we’d love to come back and stay a bit longer next time. The only downside was the Wi-Fi, which was a bit unstable. Other than that, everything was perfect. Would definitely stay here again!"

Dolan's Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The one bedroom suite in New Glasgow was perfect for us. Nicely located to be able to see the sites and very comfortable. Chris was an excellent host and very responsive to any questions we might have."

Seabank House Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Such a beautiful quaint old home turned into a charming BnB. The husband and wife team have poured their heart and soul into this place and it shows. We stayed in the Royal Room which felt exactly that. Rich dark colours and thoughtful touches of decor made it feel very comfortable. And speaking of which, the bed comfort was amazing! The place is very quiet and has a sitting room to sip tea or coffee after a day of road tripping. The breakfast included was fantastic (French toast with fruit and yogurt and coffee) and they even went out of their way to provide a gluten free option for me. Super happy with everything and would definitely stay here again!"
