I think these new domes will be very popular. The views from and the spaciousness inside the dome is really nice.

Beds were comfortable in the domes, very peaceful and relaxing 😎 the hot tub was a bonus, and the view of the water was lovely, we had access to the bathroom and shower in the inn, and Jeff and crew were helpful with towels and anything else we inquired about :) highly recommend and we will be back!

Domes are a newly added addition to the Baddeck Hotel, and private washrooms are being worked on and are under construction. The current bathrooms are in a private room in the hotel and are clean. Highway noise from the NS HWY 105 was loud. The dome was great, just needs a privacy shade for the glass entry door. Many heaters are included to keep you warm during the winter, and a heat pump is available for A/C in the summer. Overall, I had a good stay. The experience is bound to get better when the rest of the domes are built and amenities are finished construction.

I was nervous booking this after reading some poor reviews, but our experience couldn’t have been more opposite! We absolutely loved the glamping experience! The site was still under construction during our visit (only 3 domes open), but the ones that are finished are just the cutest! It looks like a large building for washrooms is being built next to the domes as well - we had to use the washrooms in the main motel this time, but that wasn’t an issue! The property manager was super helpful and very kind. We had an issue with our key fob, called him & he came down right away to help us out. Super close to gas / Timmie’s for morning breakfast & fill-up before we hit the Cabot trail. Our dome had 2 double beds, a tv, microwave, fridge, ac/heater, and WHAT A VIEW! Perfect place to rest our heads! We didn’t have a chance to check out the hot tub, but we will next time! We would definitely stay again! 10/10 😊

The receptionist at check-in was terrible. I said hi three times and she never responded. She didn’t smile or seem friendly at all. While my friend was filling out the check-in paperwork, I said that I wanted to check in as well, and she replied, “I’m doing one right now,” in a very rude tone. Those were the first words she said to me. I do have to say that the property manager was very nice. He made the fire for us, was helpful, and treated us kindly throughout our stay. However, my first impression because of the receptionist was terrible. I honestly don’t remember ever being treated with such disrespect and lack of kindness while receiving service during a vacation. Also, the reservation was not clear that I would receive a bedroom instead of a dome. My expectation was that I had reserved a dome, since that is what was shown on Hotels.com, but when I arrived on site, I was given a bedroom instead. Plus, the hot tub that was advertised was not like the pictures at all. It was not placed with a view as expected, and it was just a small inflatable tub that could barely fit one person at a time.

I was desperate to love this place. How cool to be able to stay in something like that? First, there was an issue with my reservation. So the owner wasn't really prepared for us. It looks like they are in full construction mode so the area wasn't as neat as could be. His workers had music playing next to our dome, but he addressed it when we texted. There should be a curtain for the door. We make a makeshift one. The tv was missing the remote. The owner addressed it quickly. Unfortunately the wifi didn't work to the dome, so no tv. There wasn't any water for the coffeemaker. And there was a surprise empty Mickie behind the microwave. Great to have these things but missing the mark about paper towel, napkins, plates, utensils. Maybe hand sanitizer since no sink or water. My problem was with the bathroom facilities. You have to go up to the main building to use the washroom. Ok, but if you really have to go, there wasn't anything else. It was also rainy so it was not convenient at all. The owner was great and very friendly, unfortunately not very prepared. Would we stay there again? No. Was it a cool experience? Yes. Would I recommend it? No and I feel sad about that.
