Glenora Distillery is a unique place to stay along Cabot Trail/Cape Breton. Our room was comfortable, yet for the price I would’ve expected a little higher quality linens, towels.

Setting great. If you’re a whiskey drinker, this could be paradise, as well as a romantic getaway. Very nice rooms. We did not eat there, as we wanted to broaden the experience. Highly recommend the Red Shoe Pub nearby, which had Cape Breton fiddlers and keyboard. Glenora had a solo guitarist singing Springsteen and similar tunes. Not what we wanted.

We stayed in chalet 10. The idea is nice but value for money just wasn’t there in my opinion. Mind you it was a very hot stretch of weather but the small bottom level window AC just didn’t keep the chalet upstairs sleeping area cool. It was very hot to try and sleep and on the noisy side. We expected more. Also we didn’t have a blind on our main window so when one of us had to come downstairs to try and get sleep, it was unnerving to have no window covering. Disappointing for the money we spent and not a good night’s sleep. On the plus side, the food in the pub was quite good and the staff were lovely.

The room had a patio but door leading to it won't open. The window blinds opening mechanism had missing arm. The bathroom did not have sufficient shampoo, conditioner and body wash for a family. No housekeeping after 3 PM and the room was located couple of kilometers away from the main complex.

was overall a great experience. I will say the the ceiling fan in our cabin was scary!!! we thought it might come crashing down, and even if it wouldn't have, it was so loud we wouldn't have been able to sleep. Other than that thought my wife and I had a wonderful time, service was prompt and friendly, food was great and the entertainment was really good.

The block of rooms off the main property could use some bug repellent- the mosquitos were out in full force. A couple of hooks to hang a coat or clothing in the room would be helpful since no closet
