A good stay overall. Very good location. Sit down breakfast was nice. Inside clean unit most furniture was old with some damage not very comfortable. Bed comfort was ok, sheets could be upgraded, bed was hard to access, very narrow room. Kitchen was good, closets were large, bathroom was clean and adequate. Deck and railing to unit need replacement / repair. Very nice large park-like area at back of property.

Review of Antigonish Victoria Inn – Room 9, 1-Bedr

Review of Antigonish Victoria Inn – Room 9, 1-Bedroom Suite We stayed in Room 9 (1-bedroom suite) for three nights and, unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. Check-in was straightforward, though we were required to prepay for the entire stay, which felt a bit rigid. The suite itself was quite dated. The furniture was in poor condition — visibly worn and uncomfortable. The kitchen was oddly stocked: five knives, but no spoons, forks, bowls, plates, or mugs. We had to walk over to the dining area in the main building to grab basic supplies ourselves, as no one was available at the front desk to assist. Housekeeping was minimal. During our stay, we didn’t receive any room service — only a towel swap. Cleanliness was another major issue. There were earwigs in both the kitchen and shower. A few dead ones were already on the kitchen floor when we arrived — and were still there when we checked out. Overall, the room was poorly maintained and lacking in basic amenities and cleanliness. It’s not a place we’d return to or recommend unless serious improvements are made.

Deeply Disappointed – A Once-Charming Inn no more!

We recently stayed at the Victorian Inn in Antigonish, paying $600 for two nights in a family cottage, unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. From the moment we walked in, it was clear the unit had not been properly cleaned or maintained. Kitchen was filthy—ant traps, dirty oven with a cookie sheet still inside, under the sink was a mess of more ant traps, grimy cloths, bathroom was no better: shower curtain badly stained, bathtub had a visible ring, and the bathroom fan was so caked with dust it couldn't possibly function properly. Throughout the cottage, surfaces were unclean. Glass coffee table had visible handprints, door knobs and windows were grimy. The back patio was in poor shape, with rotting boards and no furniture to sit on, making it unusable and unsafe. To make matters worse, there was a coffee maker with a dirty basket but no actual coffee provided. When I spoke with one of the owners' workers at check-out, I was told that just two people were responsible for cleaning 13 rooms in a 4-hour window. That explains a lot, but it also highlights poor management priorities.This building is iconic in Antigonish and deserves so much better. It’s heartbreaking to see it so clearly neglected, with no apparent interest in preserving its reputation or offering guestsa respectable stay. Sadly, it seems the owners have chosen to run this once-charming inn into the ground.We will not return—and I can’t in good faith recommend this property to anyone.

Beautifully appointed heritage house. Had a lovely note with keys attached at front desk upon check in and left keys at front counter at check out, oddly enough we did not see or speak to one employee our entire one night stay. And that was ok, but had wanted to ask if it was possible to join for breakfast. Did not even know if they served breakfast? Would stay again.

The room itself was nice. Very spacious and cool during this summer. The staff was friendly. But they didnt explain how the breakfast was served. There were menus around but when we returned in the morning at breakfast time, we only saw coffee and tea. Hopefully the staff next time can explain how the breakfast works to other customers.

We booked the family cottage , with full kitchen. When we first showed up it was so hot in there we could barely breath. Air conditioner was turned off. There was a coffee maker with no coffee to make. An oven with no oven mitt. A dishwasher with no dishwasher soap. The kitchen light was burned out as was the one above the stove, a dim table lamp was set up on the kitchen counter . Despite that i had to cook with a flashlight . No scissors in the drawer and no frying pan and no plug for the bathtub. Also I had to turn off the wifi on my phone and use my data because it was so slow .
