We had a terrible meal at this restaurant. All of the food was horribly overcooked and rubbery,…read moreservice was slow, and prices were comparable to other nearby yet far superior restaurants. I ordered the lobster and mussels - it was the first time in my life I didn't finish a lobster because it was so bad. (I'm not really even sure how it is possible to overcook a lobster like this, it's one of the easiest things to cook...) All in all it was a very disappointing experience, and I wish we had gone back to Freight Shed (or anywhere else) instead.

The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. We had dinner at the restaurant and all ordered the one vegan entree, the Vegan Salisbury Steak (refried bean patty with portabella mushroom gravy, potatoes, and seasonal vegetables), which was DELICIOUS. The house-made sorbet was also fantastic. Our server was so friendly and nice and we really enjoyed our whole dinner experience, especially since we ate outside (on the porch). Telegraph is right in the center of Baddeck, near multiple cafes, restaurants, gift shops, a supermarket, and on the same block as nightly ceilidh locales. Thanks to everyone at Telegraph for such a wonderful experience!

My girlfriend and I were on a last-minute motercycle trip to the Cabot Trail last summer (August,…read more2011), and we stumbled on the Water's Edge. They had one room available so we took it. The room was comfortable and clean, and had a great view of the water. Wanda the cleaning lady was extra helpful. The staff gave us tips on the best places to see around the area. We went kayaking, visited the Alexander Graham Bell museum, and drove around the Cabbot trail. It also had a cool gallery of local artists in the Inn. Over all, we had an amazing stay, and most of it was because of the Water's Edge giving us such great local tips. If we go back, we will definitely stay there again, as it's located perfectly in the center of all the best sites in Cape Breton. I wrote this same review on Trip Advisor, and I just joined Yelp, so I figured I'd start out by reviewing this place. That's how much we liked it. :-)

Good value for the price, overall but definitely no frills…read more The ladies at the check-in desk were very nice. They asked me if anyone had responded to my questions about food allergies regarding the restaurant. I replied that they had not but didn't get a response then either so we did not eat there. The rooms have a beautiful view of the lake and they are very clean with comfortable beds. However, our room had an odor, I couldn't tell if it was from animal or if it were just stale. I used a lot of Febreze. It is also very dated like 80s/90s. Very convenient to local food and attractions. My suggestions: Tom's Pizza, Rose's Smash Burgers, the Alexander Graham Bell museum and my favorite, the Baddeck Gathering Ceilidh (pronounced Kay-Lee, it's a Breton music hall)

We had a pleasant stay in a great room with a beautiful view of the Bras D'Or (lake.) The restaurant had the same great view and very good food. We then had a personal disaster when our car suffered a catastrophic failure while we were 700 miles from home. The motel owners Cat and Everett and the rest of the staff were angels and went to heroic lengths to save us. Gert and the front desk sent her brother-in-law Richard to help get our car off the road and make sure that we were OK. Everett picked us up and brought us back to the motel. Cat arranged a tow to a repair shop (alas the car could not be fixed.) Cat arranged a rental car. Cat arranged our flights. Everett drove us 45 minutes to the rental car. They then saved us a huge one-way fee by retrieving the rental car from the airport 2 hours away. I have traveled a lot and have seen many things. I have never seen this type of kindness. Gert, Margaret, and Marlene at the front desk were amazingly friendly and helpful. Our waitresses Erica and Bonnie were very friendly and great at their jobs. Our maid Joy was great and kept the room spotless. I did not know any of these people until a few days ago, yet I feel like they are family. I have never written a review like this, but wanted people to know about these wonderful people at the Cabot Trail Motel. The weather was not great and our car died, but this was an unbelievable stay.

The room key opens both the room door and the bathroom door... but to get from your room to the bathroom, even in the middle of the night, you have to leave your room and go across the hallway. As I said... quirky. However, the rooms are clean, there are nice seating areas located around the place, and we slept well. Room Amenities: - Cable/Satellite television - Wi-Fi Down the hall there is a common kitchen area as well as a fridge, which is meant for travelers to store their medication that needs to be refrigerated, but we used it to keep some luncheon meat cool. There is also a gym, but it has seen some better days. There is a restaurant attached to the hotel, though it seems to mainly produce pizza at night. In the morning they serve a continental breakfast for free, and it quite nice to sit there and talk with the kitchen staff and owner. Locally, there is a pub down the road that features live music most nights, highly recommended if you are in the mood for some local music and a brew.
