Had a great three night stay in late September. Location cannot be beat - on main street across from harbour with restaurants, pubs, shops all within 5 minute walk. Room with a water view was large, clean, comfortable and very modern. The staff was great - Michael in particular. Would definitely stay again.
After discovering that most amenities were booked we found The Smugglers Inn. Lucky for us there was one room available. Not our first choice as there were 3 of us. We took the room and dropped our bags and decided to explore Lunenburg a bit. When returning to the Inn, Michael asked us if we would like a walking tour. We agreed and were pleasantly surprised with all the info and insights Michael shared with us. After the walk we settled in for the night. The next morning we had a lovely breakfast (included) and commented to Michael that even the pull out was a comfortable sleep. Fantastic host. Nice clean room. Great breakfast. We would definitely stay there again and hope to do so in October.
Not only are the rooms comfortable and clean, the owners (Michael and Rita Kim) made our experience a very memorable one. Michael was friendly and full of information about the area. Both he and Rita were warm and welcoming. Be sure to spend the $5 for their breakfast. Homemade croissants and gourmet coffee. Delicious.
We stayed here for one night and it did not disappoint. Our room overlooked the waterfront. The room was clean and had all amenities needed. Location to everything Lunenburg is perfect. Only wish the breakfast could offer more at the price paid.
This is a really sweet inn. Stayed on the third floor, it felt really spacious with a large sitting area just outside my room. The room was very clean, the mattress was maybe a little old as it was very soft on the edges. The shower was very tricky, it took a while to work out how to start it. Breakfast was sufficient though a little unusual. Location is perfect.
There are no high-rises in the historic area of Lunenburg. Most of the guest rooms are in small buildings/inns. Our room was on the second floor (room 202) and was large, comfortable, and well air-conditioned. There are two breakfast options in small restaurants next to the check in area on the first floor. The location is fabulous and we recommend this hotel.
We stayed in a King room with a view of the water. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, good shower, air conditioning. No complaints. The location is incredible in Lunenburg. Steps away from the wharf, restaurants. The grocery store is close by also. I would definitely stay here again.
I cannot praise the hotel owners enough. We stayed at the Smuggler's Cove Inn for 4 nights while visiting Lunenburg. Our flights was really delayed but the owners ensured we can have a contact free check in even though we eventually arrived at 2.30am. Mike and Rita, the owners, make you feel so welcome and you feel like you are a guest in their house rather than guest in a hotel. The place has many rooms, we were given a great corner room on 3rd floor with sea views. Location is perfect and in the heart of Lunenburg. Hope to be able to visit Nova Scotia again and would definitely stay here again. I'd like to see the lovely mural being painted when it's completed.
Smugglers Cove is an exceptional place to stay in Lunenburg. The owners are committed to making your stay a warm memory. We were treated like family and look forward to returning again when we are back. Conveniently located right in the heart of historic Lunenburg it is a wonderful place to be based for your exploration of all this area has to offer. Thank you Michael and Rita!!
Had high expectations based on reviews for this hotel but was a little disappointed. We had a king suite on the first floor which was very spacious with a full kitchen. Needs updating, it was clean but old. There was a patio door at the far end of the suite which provided the only light which meant the room was dark even in the daytime (pictures showed a well lit room). Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Noise between rooms not that good. Someone came in at 1.30am and walked around above us and woke us up. An ok stay.
