We stayed in the Carriage Room for three nights and it was delightful. The bathroom was modern and updated yet complemented the old charm of the Inn. Loved the easy access to the upper porch were we drank wine and danced at night. Kristina is wonderful - service with a friendly, genuine smile. The food was spectacular.

Wanting to get away for our 50th Anniversary, choose Little Inn of Bayfield. The room was very comfortable, with entry out to Porch. Breakfast service to our room was Delicious and accommodated to my Gluten Free Diet. During the time of Cov 19, we felt safe and comfortable.

I’ve stayed at the Inn a few times over the years. This trip specifically was to hunker down and get some writing done. The team at the Inn were kind enough to move me to a room with a garden view where it was wonderfully quiet. Travelling during a pandemic is different. I didn’t realize how different it would be and I feel the Inn has pivoted to provide the best possible experience For their guests. Breakfast is delivered to the room, keeps are exchanged without touch, limited staff on duty and all seemed to work well. Hope to visit someday again soon.

Thanks for you review and yes, the hospitality we love to provide to all our guests is unfortunately a bit limited with the precautions we have put in place to protect our guests and staff. We hope normal will return at some point until then we are all working very hard to provide the best experience possible given the 'new normal" we live in today. I hope the writing went well. We kook forward to welcoming you back again soon. Mike Oliver -Owner

My husband and myself stayed there recently. I liked the decor of the Inn however had difficulty finding the lock box at the beginning of the stay in which a staff member called to let us know that nobody will be at the front desk so called us to let us know details of getting in. From when we got there, I felt as if me and my husband were the only ones at the Inn therefore when we had a question in regards to the Inn or amenities at the hotel, we didn't have anyone to ask . I truly wish breakfast was included as we had difficulty finding breakfast the next morning and were quite hungry. I would have greatly appreciated some local guidance from the hotel in where me and my husband could get breakfast. The room was clean and the washroom was clean as well however the staff

First you were provided with the provisions we have taken as part of the Provincial and Industry protocol for COVID 19, this include not servicing rooms during a guest stay to protect your safety and that of our staff. Each room is throughly sanitized before each arrival. Also a number was provided at front desk to call should you require any additional amenities that would have been provided to you in a contactless room drop. We offer continental breakfast for all guests that book directly with us if you had booked through another site we would have provided this to you for a small fee. We operate in a different environment under COVID 19 and all hotels in the province and country are following the industry recommendations, and those of the local, provincial and federal Health Authorities. It would have been nice for you to take this under consideration before writing this review.

First time staying here even though we have been to Bayfield several times. Staff are amazing, super friendly. Clean, comfortable and all that but the stand out for us was the food. Who new? Not us but we are glad we found out. The flavours, wow. It is obvious the Chef not only cares but is passionate about his food. It was great and a nice touch to have the Chef come out and say hi and inquire about a few new dishes he was trying that we had. Trust me the feedback was great. I would suggest it is worth a trip to Bayfield just to stay and eat here.

The little Inn has always been our "go to" spot whenever we want to get away close to home. As usual the Inn exceeded our expectations.. our suite was perfect, our dinner outstanding, but most important to us, the staff made our stay a very special occasion. Megan who checked us in (and out), Courtney who served us in the dining room, and Nathanial who is a fantastic bartender and great host in the charming bar, together they knocked it out of the park for us! And finally the Chef who made a point to introduce himself and leave us a late night nosh with his compliments. Wow, just wow.

This was our 7th visit and we've never been disappointed with this wonderful gem of a hotel located in the quite town of Bayfield. Both the food and service are exceptional. Great place for a couples getaway or small corporate retreat.

Wonderful hospitality! Quaint, clean and cozy accommodations! The staff was so lovely. They brought us tea to our room. Felt like a Hallmark Christmas movie in that town, especially staying in such a cute inn!

Loved our stay this past week for 2 nights at the Little Inn. The building is beautiful with a modern but “old” feel. We love this getaway for the comfort of the beds, we love the spaciousness of room 1 and the food is always outstanding! The staff are excellent as well and they go above and beyond. Thursday night was burger night- which was amazing but also so great to see a full restaurant and the staff helping each other. Great team and great place to stay!
