Know before you go

Had the amenities one needs. Check in involved a wait in a long line for the restaurant (high tourist season made the restaurant very busy - there is no separate check in service for hotel guests). Parking is street parking and metered during the day, so plan to drop your luggage and then plug meters for parking or park further away for free. No air conditioning - on a very hot day this was a bit rough during the day, however the nights are cool in Lunenberg so we ended up being comfortable later in the night.

We checked in at the restaurant downstairs. We were in the same queue as people trying to get a table so it was a little inefficient but still quick. The room was upstairs in a secured building with a code to the front door and another code to the room (wonder how often if they get changed). The room had thoughtful amenities. Access to Lunenburg Waterfront was quick and amazing. Plenty of dining options in town, would have tried the seafood linguini downstairs but we had a hankering for poutines elsewhere. There's no parking attached to the property, but we were able to find street parking with permitted overnight stay- meter started at 10am so we put coins for 1hr before we checked out. Just one thing, we had our windows open to let air, and BBQ prep began early morning downstairs (we were sure we smelled brisket!) so maybe expect some noise with the windows open. Overall a good stay.

The cutest room we have stayed at! Beautiful view of the ocean. Decorated lovely. We are sad now that we checked into a chain hotel and wish we were back above the salt shaker! If you haven’t booked it yet, DO IT!!

I wanted to give a great review for the wonderful location, charm of this building, friendliness of staff and the excellent dining and service, but the heat in room (1) in the inn was significant and truly impacted my sleep and well being during my visit. I’m not sure if it is due to being located on top of a restaurant but the room was significantly hotter than it was outside and it remained uncomfortable despite the use of both a ceiling and floor fan. It is really unfortunate because it really takes away from what could otherwise be a perfect stay.

Our stay at Salt Shaker Deli & Inn was very nice, and we would recommend it. Check-in at the restaurant was easy. The apartment was spacious and had a lovely view of the water, a large jacuzzi tub, and a small but workable kitchen. The Inn is conveniently located near the main dock, and we easily found parking. The room was very clean. One thing to be aware of is that there is a steep flight of stairs to get to the rooms. We enjoyed a nice dinner at the adjacent restaurant, which is happy to reserve a table for guests staying at the Inn.

Not for Us

The street was busy and parking difficult to find and there was no place to park to drop off luggage. When we entered the deli it was packed and very loud so we immediately realized this was not the place for us. Since the rooms were above the restaurant we figured it would be quite loud for some time so we left. To be fair we're in our 70's and live on a quiet farm, so if you're young you may enjoy it.

It was located right in the heart of the small town on top of the restaurant. There was no air conditioning, so it got really stuffy but there were fans set up. Quite expensive for what you are getting! There is no on site parking so you must either park at the harbour or try to find street parking (very busy on weekends!) staff was nice, very strict on 3pm check in. Check in was at restaurant host stand.
