Best Western Plus Muskoka Inn

Best Western Plus Muskoka Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Fab hotel in a great location for visiting Algonquin and surrounding areas. The reception staff were lovely and the room clean and had enough space, and the beds were pretty good too. Breakfast had some decent choices, best part was the waffles! Easy to walk across the street to shops and restaurants and a short drive into the town which was lovely. Would recommend."
