Absolutely beautiful place to stay! Stunningly renovated old victorian style house that is still classic yet modern! They did such a great job and you can tell how much work and love went into it! It was clean, spacious and so cozy! Left feeling relaxed and refreshed!

I would recommend this hotel

The room was clean and pretty. The breakfast was also amazing with some food choice. My only regret is that I had no time using sauna.

It is a beautiful place to stay. Lots of character in the building, furnishing, details, etc. Highly recommend it! The best place we stayed during our 10 day visit across NS.
Teri, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean, modern and charming. I appreciated the small touches, including the Nespresso and the white noise machine. (If all the doors could be oiled it would make it even better as the quarters are pretty tightly packed so you hear everything)
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I highly recommend the August house. Each room is unique, but they're all attractively and interestingly decorated. We stayed in room 3, which has a king size bed and a huge bathroom. I particularly liked that there are several quiet lounge areas where you can get coffee or tea and any additional cups or glasses you might need. The complimentary breakfast was fresh and wholesome. There's parking right out front and best of all, the staff is really dedicated to the comfort of the guests.
