Pricey and pretentious. Tiny room, well appointed, not, in flea market finds. Amenities include a quality, hand crafted soap…. Literally a sliver…. Literally! For hand and shower, a sliver of soap. Delicious breakfast and book way in advance for dinner.

The atmosphere encourages guests to relax. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Our room was spacious, and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast is freshly prepared. I recommend at least one evening making dinner reservations here as well- great end of an active day exploring.

Superbly situated for touring Cape Breton. Very comfortable room with fast WiFi. The dinner menu is outstanding - different every evening. 4 options. Four course meat, fish, or vegetarian or 8 course combination of fish and meat. We had the meat first night and fish second night. Both delicious, imaginative, and portion sizes perfectly adequate (probably need to work up an appetite for the 8 course). The staff were very friendly and well informed about the area. Breakfast also excellent. And ingredients largely sourced locally.

This is a very nice complex of a country inn and some self-catering cottages in a beautiful location on the Cabot trail. The restaurant offerings are superb. The central area in the lodge has great charm.

I felt disappointed. This hotel is about 30 minutes away from the nearest town. When we arrived, it was dinner time & no one told us that we had to have reservation for dinner. They were sold out for dinner. We had to drive 20 minutes to go to the only restaurant that was the closest place & had to drive back at night time on a winding road to get back to the hotel. When we arrived, the place was quiet and no one around. We had to go to sleep, there isn't even a TV in the room.

The Chanterelle Inn and restaurant are perfect! The couple who own and run it have invested great care into every detail. The exquisite dinner and breakfast meals were unexpected delights. The decor and bedrooms were lovely and relaxing. 26 acres surround the inn and create a welcome oasis right off Cabot Trail. This is a place we hope to visit again!

The location was wonderful. We watched a bald eagle in a tree across the way which was way cool. The food was excellent. The bed was uncomfortable and the hot water ran out mid shower.

I seldom choose Air B&B. But I'm glad I chose the right one this time. In one night's accommodation We can see that the landlord is very friendly and the room is in good condition. The most important thing is that the room is soundproof and can rest quietly. What surprises us is that there is a very good breakfast with many choices. I will choose this family to live in the future.

My husband and I had a wonderful couple of nights at Chanterelle. We stayed in a room in the main building. We loved the peacefulness of the place. It was such a relaxing place to stay. Breakfast was delicious! We booked dinner for the one evening. We were so glad we did. It was an 8 course meal. Every dish was excellent! Would recommend if you’re looking for peace and relaxation and excellent food!

Beautiful property but very isolated. It is right on the Cabot trail which is nice. Lovely staff. The food is incredible. Delicious breakfast and dinner was an amazing tasting menu. We had some minor issues with our room but not a huge deal. Overall a lovely place to stay if you want to be isolated.

This inn is right on the Cabot Trail. We stayed in one of the cottages off the main building. It was a spacious kitchenette and well equipped with everything we needed. The shower was a modern handheld model. There was a TV on the property, and we were able to watch our favourite shows on Netflix and Prime (together with many of Prime’s associated channels, including Crave!!). There was a very unique restaurant on the premises that served a nine-course tasting menu. It was a wonderful experience and, I’m sure, a labour of love for the chef. Dinner that night was lots of fun. My husband and I highly recommend this place if you are ever on the Cabot Trail.
