We stayed at the Inn because of its reasonable cost and its proximity to the ferry across to PEI. It is also within easy walking distance to good restaurants on the harbor.
The Inn is close to the charming harbor.

Home was beautiful and staff lovely. We stayed on the third floor and our only concern was the water pressure, and the fact that it took quite sometime for the water to get hot. Overall a very nice stay!

What a lovely hotel. This is the first hotel in Pictou and it is gorgeous. The entire hotel is gorgeous, our room was wonderful and the breakfast was nice. The only downsize is that there is no elevator so it was alot of steps to get to the first floor room.

Very nice inn. The staffs are very friendly and resourceful. The inn is close to most restaurants in the town. And, Princess Anne visited and stayed here in 1991 honoring the arrival of the Ship Hector from Scotland to the Port of Pictou in 1773.

What a fantastic spot. Character of infrastructure in the building in general, the main floor and property amenities including the eating/breakfast area and the room itself. Linda, the owner operator, is a extraordinary woman you are better off having met. I would stay again in this wonderful place and enjoy the comfy setting the next time I am in town.

Overall it was OK. The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. Staff were very friendly and the continental breakfast was OK, but no dali and cheese. The bathrooms were extremely small, but since it’s a heritage building, we understand the limitation—just something future guests should be aware of. One issue: the gutters right outside our window dripped all night. It was loud and made it hard to sleep.

Appreciated the quiet and an interesting historic building. Could walk to town quite easily. Keep in mind you'll be asked to pay up front, which isn't usual in my hotel experience. There are religious/biblical quotes throughout common spaces, and the rules are quite strict.

Charming old hotel with some updates to the rooms. We were on the 2nd of 3 floors. There is virtually no sound proofing between floors.
