I dare you to find a better B&B anywhere. This historic property was built in 1859 in the midst of…read morewonderful gardens. It truly is a great place to have a wedding. We didn't, but there was one going on when we got there. Innkeepers Val Peterson & Paul Stackhouse made us feel like family...and eavesdropping on the conversation with the bride and groom, I know they felt special too. Each room is beautifully decorated with antiques and every morning you are greeted to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and muffins and scones baking in the oven to go along with a full breakfast served in the very formal dining room. The room may be formal, but the atmosphere is very relaxed. I really can't wait to go back! One word AWESOME or maybe EXTRAORDINARY. Just remember they are open from April 1-November 30. Even they need a break sometime.

This house is definitely more an "inn" and less a "B&B" due to its size, but all the same, it was a…read morewonderful stay, and the breakfast was great. The house is like a comfortable museum - beautifully decorated with antique items, but you don't feel like you're in a "no touch" zone. The hostess was super friendly and extremely accommodating, especially when we told her we would miss breakfast because we had to leave a little early to go whale watching. She and her staff started breakfast early and still fed us a full feast! It's centrally located, an easy walk to the center of Annapolis Royal but still a bit quiet and tucked away. We stayed in Room 2, which has a wonderful bed (comfy and quiet) and a large free-standing tub perfect for soaking in. The only complaint is that we're a bit sensitive to noise on a road, and this room is at the front of the house, so you can hear the cars moving along. However, the house is set back from the road, so it's not a considerable annoyance, and there is not much that the Inn can do about that. As it is, they do have an AC unit in the room, so it's easy to keep windows closed. Room 2 has a great free standing bathtub and a comfy and quiet bed. You don't share a wall with any other guests since the bathroom separates your bedroom from other guests, so it's very private.

We reserved a room at Dockside Suites through Booking.com, and we're happy we did. The room was a…read morelarge king bed room overlooking the water -- three large windows provided the viviews, and in addition there was a small private wood deck right outside the room also with a glorious sea view. The room was spotlessly clean, the bathroom was large with a very nice step-in shower (no tub), and there was also a roomy closet. The bed proved comfortable, and the AC worked fine. Technology got in the way with the TV, however. We couldn't figure how to operate it, and asked the staff to help. It took them a while to get it right, but then the next evening we encountered the same problem and got the same help. Too much technology, in our opinion. The suites are entered from the street and up a flight of steps - no elevators. Hauling bags can be challenging. The front desk is in the next door restaurant, a little confusing at first. Parking is free in a small lot across the street, though spaces are limited. There are a couple of restaurants, all part of the same group, located in the building. (We review them separately.) One gripe: one of the restaurants has an outside speaker spewing a sort of loud disco 80s beat music and we could feel the thump-thump in our room from around 3 until it quit at 11pm. We asked about having it stopped and got no results. A minor issue but an annoying one that keeps us from giving this hotel five stars. The staff proved friendly and helpful. The suites are quite a bargain given their size and the views, a little under $200 per night in US dollars. Digby is a nice little town on the Bay of Funky famous for its fresh scallops, and we can't imagine there's a better place to stay if you're visiting here.

We arrived early, with the understanding that our rooms may not be ready. We did call ahead, and the woman who answered the phone said she would do her best. We understood completely. Upon arrival, they were still cleaning our rooms. Most of the rooms had the doors propped wide open. It was winter. The cleaning staff (a man and a woman) were trudging in and out of several rooms, wearing dirty rubber boots. All the while, the woman kept loudly complaining about how sick she was, not wearing gloves or a mask while "cleaning". As well, she was hollering about how much one of the other rooms "smelled like pot". We patiently waited, as we understood we'd arrived early. They told us the cleaning was complete. I went in to do a once-over of my workmate's room, only to find the room smelled heavily of cigarette smoke (this was a different room than the "pot room"), crumbs in her mattress, and most of the surfaces, which were glass covered, were covered in crumbs and had drink circles all over them. Not clean at all. I found the cleaning staff two rooms over and requested they take another look at the room, explaining the things we found. I was given a look by the sick woman, but they said they'd get to it after they finished the rest of the rooms. Not a problem. We decided then to go to the local grocery store to get some cleaning supplies ourselves, as we were worried about getting sick from the cleaning woman. When we returned, the rest of the rooms had their cleaning completed, so I entered my room. I decided to open my dresser drawers. The top drawer was full of crumbs and liquids. The second drawer, to my complete horror, was full of SOILED BEDSHEETS. (See pictures attached.) I was DISGUSTED. We packed all of our luggage back into our vans and got out of there as quickly as possible. If you care about your health and wellbeing, DO NOT STAY AT THE ANNAPOLIS ROYAL INN.

This hotel/resort is very old-timey. If you like the old-school charm in an idyllic setting then…read moreconsider staying here. We spent one night here in September, just after the Labor Day weekend. It is just down the road from the port town of Digby, the scallop capital of Canada and had some great seafood right on the wharf. The hotel is large and offers rooms in the main building as well as cabins. There is a heated outdoor pool and a fitness center with a small sauna. Our room was small, as rooms were back in the day. There was just enough room for the king-sized bed and a couple of chairs with not a lot of wiggle room. Though handicap accessible, be aware that some of the rooms require the use of stairs as ours did. The restaurant seemed to offer a nice brunch, but because it ended at 10am, which is too early for a vacation spot in my oppinion, we opted to eat in town, which is where we took all of our meals. However, the hotel does offer fine-dining for dinner. We checked out the walking trail that goes all around the hotel grounds, which are expansive. All in all a nice place to stay and would recommend it of you are travelling in the area.

We settled on the Admiral Digby Inn, also, because it seemed pretty central. For a random, pretty uniformed choice, we really hit the jackpot. We rented the 2 bedroom cottage and it could not have been more perfect. We were on the motel property but off in the corner, so it felt incredibly private. We had all the amenities of the motel-including the indoor heated pool and the AMAZING restaurant- but we had our own kitchen, living room and 2 private decks. One with ocean views and a hammock that I miss! I had the best haddock I've ever had at the restaurant. Breakfast was yummy too. If I have to pick a negative, it would be that there were no televisions in the bedrooms. But that's not really a negative, because we didn't travel all the way to Nova Scotia to watch TV. The pool was a little dated, but my son, the little fish, didn't care. The staff was very pleasant and attentive. The front desk clerk offered us great advice on what to see and do, and even offered to book us a whale watch. They even had discount tickets to Upper Clements amusement park. I cannot recommend the Admiral Digby Inn highly enough. We're hoping to visit next year!

Our room, the maroon room, was decorated in Victorian style that some would call dated, but fits with the rest of the house.

The maroon room is very spacious and has a wonderful view of the basin and the property's gardens. It also had cable TV and free wifi. Bob is a retired executive chef and it shows in the quality of the complimentary breakfast. The cranberry scones were wonderful, especially with some of the lemon curd. Strawberry muffins were next and they were fantastic. Better still was the absolutely flawless egg Benedict. This was one of the best I've ever had. $95 taxes in for all this, who could ask for more?

Anyway, this hotel had to be one of the nicest that I've ever stayed in. (It really does deserve at 5 star rating but my anti-hotel feelings prevent me from doing so.) The front desk people were extremely nice and so were the other guests. I met some pretty cool bikers that liked my suitcase. They were nice guys. The room was a standard double bed room and it was very clean and quiet. The beds were huge and comfortable. The shower was very nice with a traction floor and what I think was a sauna feature. The room had a Keurig machine, complimentary wi-fi, table with two chairs, desk and T.V. with many appropriately placed lights. I didn't go into the pool but the people there looked like they were having a good time. Finally, the morning complimentary breakfast was actually really delicious. I made a sausage and omelet bagel sandwich and had orange juice, a banana, milk, and yogurt. In addition, they had english and french newspapers lying around. J'ai été très heureux. Finally, the parking lot has a lot of space and the check-in/check-out took less than two minutes. A little out of my price range for a regular stay but when I'm older I would go back.
