This place rocks! It's like the "Cheers" bar only in Sydney. The vibe is honest, genuine and…read morecomfortable. I had the Greek special which is Superb with a capital S. The servers are friendly. If you want a place where you can sit back, eat some good grub, listen to music or watch the game, this is your place. The prices are A-OK as well.

Old ladies behind the bar give terrible service, but lots of big screens to watch the game on.read more

Holy crap, the single worst steak in my whole life. Ordered it medium rare, received it cooked like…read morea sole of a shoe. Took one bite and that was enough - I didn't even eat it. At least they took 50%. Paid my bill and then went to another restaurant to buy dinner a second time. The waitress was polite.

Went in for the name draw. Great atmosphere as expected. Decent beer tap list, but the food was…read moremorose. The fish & chips were OK, but my club sandwich was dry, with small diameter, yet thick chicken pieces and small bacon slices. I'm willing to try the other franchise locations, but won't expect much.

My husband and I enjoyed our 4 day stay at Dundee. The grounds and rooms are lovely and kept…read moreimmaculately clean. The a/c did not work in our room. A front desk staff member immediately came to the room. After trying to get it working, she not only promptly moved us to an upgraded room, she checked several to be sure we got the one with the best possible a/c and even offered to help us move our bags. We did not lose even a half hour of our vacation time! In general this is a wonderful place! It's well maintained and very clean. Every staff person we encountered was warm, friendly, and helpful. I appreciated that a 24 hour guest laundry is available up near the cabins. Our room came with nice toiletries, a decent blow dryer, and the shower had great water pressure.

You may or may not know, that I love to golf. I'm not that good though, but I am improving…read more This was the course my love of golf began. I played here the morning of my wedding with my groomsmen, it was cold, really cold. In fact it was snowing on one of the holes at the top of the mountain. Yes a mountain. At least it feels that way when playing. the holes are up hill or down hill, not a whole lot of level playing. But Fun! But that was one of my most enjoyable games. This is the only course i have ever played where i will always get a cart. I just don't feel like walking up a mountain. The resort itself is awesome, the rooms are great, the views of Bras Dor Lakes are great, the food is oh-so-good. I can't wait to play this course, on a nicer summer day. (Not in October) The green fees are on the high range. Approx $65. But man I'll pay that to golf here. Check out http://www.capebretonresorts.com/ for package deals! Worth a look! Keep Swinging!

Disappointing Stay - Holiday Inn Sydney Waterfront…read more My wife and I hadn't been back to Sydney in nearly 40 years, so we were excited to return last weekend to reconnect with friends and family. We booked our stay through HCI, using some of our points. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the start. When we arrived, our room wasn't ready. That was the first red flag. The lobby furniture was noticeably worn and tired-looking. Once we were finally able to check in, we noticed smudged paint around the door and wall of our room. Inside, there was a gap between the hallway carpet and the tile in the suite -- signs of poor maintenance. Still, we decided to stay. That's when we discovered that the toilet didn't work. We contacted the front desk and were told the maintenance staff was unavailable -- and that we'd need to use a plunger ourselves. Seriously? No one ever showed up, and no plunger was provided. We were forced to use the lobby restrooms, which were in even worse condition: stall locks broken, sinks that didn't drain, and stained porcelain everywhere. We informed the front desk that we had lunch reservations and would be returning around 1:00 PM. We asked for either a working toilet by then or a new room. We also made it clear that if neither was addressed, we would not be staying another night. This is not the level of cleanliness or service I expect from Holiday Inn or IHG. I tried to find a way to contact Holiday Inn or IHG directly to provide this feedback, but had no luck -- so I'm sharing it here. Hope this helps others. If you do stay here, lower your expectations.

LOVE this place! I wanted to live there! Very clean and beautiful. Right on the boardwalk. My dogs…read moreand I walked the boardwalk every day, a bunch of times every day. I don't recommend walking in front of the hotel with dogs on the sidewalk though. The grass isn't cut, and there is trash and who knows what thrown in the long grass in front of the hotel. Loved the bed, the pillows, the soaps and the staff. We enjoyed this hotel so much. I could see the Big Fiddle at the dock from my window! So wonderful to watch the glow on the water change over the course of a few days. Morning, afternoon, evening, night. This place is also very central to many good places to go - like the Governor's Pub across the street with live music every Saturday night. And the Cidery a little ways up the road - live music on Sunday nights. My dogs and I enjoyed our stay very much. 100%. Loved this place. Hope to go back some day. ALSO - it was interesting to stay here for a few days and see how the port changes when there is a ship in the port or not. How busy it can get, how quiet it can be, what the locals do differently when there is no ship in port. It was all very interesting in early June, 2024.

I can only speak for the Hedley show I worked here and I hope this is normally organized better…read morewhen they play hockey ! First in the morning the hands were mostly late so the load in took a long time! There is a lobby with drinks and snack options during this event 2 stayed closed although it was a full house , so the lines at the rest of them were really long. Security seems not to know what's going on at all, the support acts signed autographs but the security had no idea where that table would be set up and when I pointed it out they did not go there and help with the line up of people or make sure everything goes orderly. The bathrooms, oh the bathrooms... Well when I went there was no soap, towels or toilet paper it was just at halftime of the show so I thought that was pretty sad. I didn't have the feeling anybody here cares! Oh and it gets better I just took a star off because towards the end of the show they roped of half of the lobby , when I asked them what's going on they told me that the ceiling is coming down... Seriously!!! Wow!!
