Good - Old fashioned, quiet country hotel with amazing views over the Gulf of St Lawrence, excellent choice of breakfast foods with plenty of healthy options and lovely room. Only slight downside was the restaurant is not open this season which meant going back out when I would have preferred staying in after a long day of driving.

The super nice lady that checked us in was amazing. She was so friendly and accommodating. She grew up in the area and was able to give us a lot of information. Our rooms were comfortable and clean. There was plenty of socializing space down stairs with a television and large couch. The breakfast in the morning was delicious. Lots to choose from and the owner of the Inn, she was very friendly. Would stay there again!

We had a great stay here. Great pricing, beautiful location. Rooms are charming, comfortable, and most importantly, very clean. We got a free room upgrade which was awesome! Kim was so kind and made our stay very welcoming. Breakfast was simple but did the trick. Kim came around and took our egg order and made ham as well. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay for exploring the eastern portion of Cape Breton National Park. Kim (part owner) is a great host snd made us feel very welcomed. We stayed in room #6 which is upstairs (no elevator on premise) and faces the back (not ocean view). The room is pretty standard. Decor is outdated but very clean. The included buffet breakfast has a variety of breads, yogurts, cold cuts and hot dishes like sausages and scrambled eggs. Overall we had a great experience at Castle Rock Country Inn.
