Best Western Plus Dartmouth Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good
"The rooms were clean and spacious. Bathroom could be roomier. There was no coffee machine, never found the alarm clock till we were leaving. Went to supper at the restaurant and it was great. The waiter was very knowledgeable about celiac disease. Breakfast was a different story. No options clearly marked. Could only have drinks that i knew, fruit or yogurt. I did have the scrambled eggs and was fine but there should be ingredients listed and there should be options for someone like myself."

"We missed our connecting flight and needed to find accommodation for 1 night. The Barrington was very full but we managed to get a room with a very comfortable king size bed. Our breakfast was delicious with several great options to choose from. The citadel and harbour front were only several blocks away giving us the opportunity for a walk along the beautiful pier before leaving for the airport the following day. Only drawback was the hotel being at least 1/2hr drive from the airport."
