Ceilidh Country Lodge

Nice property near the water. Parking is right beside building you are in. Great for a stay in Baddeck.

I reception check-in was quick and efficient. The roon was clean but dated. The curtains were on the window needed repair. This is a 3 star at best. No food offered on site.

The room was nice and tidy, there were some cobwebs and dust in the room, however it was the offseason! The parking was right up by the door and really convenient. The staff were also very kind. No breakfast during the winter.

Friendly staff. Clean room although bit dated. Great location. Walking distance to village. I like that arent any carpets.Fridge iron and hairdryer provided in the room. Value for you money. Would definitely stay again.

From check in to check out I wish I had never booked a stay here. I understand it might be the off season, but I would still expect a certain level of standards to upheld. At check in, I was treated with a semi-rude process. Confusion that I even had a reservation. Staff still expected me to pay, even though I had already prepaid through Expedia. Once in the room, I was even more disappointed. I had to kill a couple bugs; and more returned every evening and morning. This is the middle of winter…where are they coming from??? The room was dirty, didn’t look cleaned. There wasn’t any toilet paper on the dispenser, and only a partial roll on the back of the toilet. The TV is quite small and outdated. Nothing is updated about this place. I have attached plenty of pictures. Any pictures I saw when booking don’t even come close to replicating my experience. The front door doesn’t seal to the building frame. Curtains don’t close properly. And the heating/cooling unit runs nonstop. Housekeeping services were never offered. I had to go request more toilet paper. I left garbage outside the door and it finally was taken on day 2. I would never stay at this establishment if it was the only place with a room. I’d sleep in my car!! Pictures attached for reference!! I stayed from March 10-13, 2026.

Room was very clean and well appointed. Room was nice and warm on our arrival and the pathways were heavily salted to prevent ice. We saw staff out salting the deck and paths over our stay.

Room was clean I was the only one in the whole place was fine..

This hotel room was borderline poor. The room lacked a welcome mat to wipe soiled winter boots at the entryway. The bathroom was basic, with the bare minimums and lacked shampoo. The towels were rough and thin. One of the mattresses was comfortable to sleep on while the other was at the end of its life and needs replacing. There is a functional mini fridge availble along with a coffee machine.

Paper-thin walls so you could hear every person coming & going in the building. Glad it wasn't fully occupied or we would've never slept.

A lovely location with lots of parking and wonderful breakfast. The main house has the reception area and dinning room for breakfast. The big porch offers a seating area and would be wonderful to sit on when the weather is nice. The rooms are a little dated, but clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is a good selection of hot and cold items for breakfast. It is close to the Main Street where you have plenty of dinning option.

room could use a major update, although very clean, its a standard low end motel. tiny tv

The location is great and the views are lovely. Rooms outdated and the rooms have that sketchy motel smell, wouldn’t calm the rooms clean but they weren’t awful either. Staff was friendly. Just meh.

Very outdated property.

Very friendly and accommodating staff

Was nice for a one night stay, I wouldn't want to stay longer. Breakfast was just ok.

We had the loft. It was located on the rear of the main building with only having one small window, so it was dark. No view from the room. Headroom was also an issue ( I am 6’2””talk) due to low vaulted ceilings. Closet space and table and chair was difficult to use due to low vaulted ceiling.

Room furniture dated. King room cramped.

Beds were very comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast.

Lacks USB charging outlets

We booked our stay at Ceilidh Country Lodge because of its close proximity to the Cabot Trail. We were a party of 4 booking 2 rooms. The rooms were terrible, bathrooms in particular. The toilets were round basin, lowest possible height that can be obtained. Sink in our room were in terrible need of replacement, enamel was scrtched like someone used steel wool on it, our other guests said the same of theirs, along with hair stuck in the radiator. The toilets were way overdue for replacement. The toilet seat looked like it was never cleaned but it was because the material was deteriorating to a point it should have been replaced years ago. We didn't dare to use the shower as that sghould have been replaced a long time ago. The 2nd floor railing around our building's deck was far beyond a paint job. I only have to wonder how long before someone goes through the railing with wood rot around window frames, balcony posts and doors. A lot of it is esthetics but a good majority is also a safety concern. Property is also in great need of a paint and wood replacement as we seen lots of rotting wood all around in traffic areas. We were in the front building so not aware of the condition of the back building. We were all disgusted in the condition of the property and disappointed the description didn't tell us what to expect. Personally I gave it 2 stars, but probably deserved only 1 star but the continental breakfast was actually quite good. Cleaning was mediocre.
