My husband and I enjoyed the Cabot Trail this past week (October 2012) and when we exited the park one dark rainy evening we were relieved to find the Mountain View Motel. The staff was friendly, especially the waitresses and the food was tasty and good value, particularly dinner.. We returned to our room after eating to find it still... More

This is a motel out of the 60s and it needs updating. The first cottage we were given was not clean - toothpaste on the mirror, bugs and hair on the bathroom floor. There were big chips in the paint on the walls. We asked for another cottage and the second one was clean. However all the mattresses needed to... More

Quaint hotel,everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It is also in a great location, especially if you are planning on traveling around the Highlands of Northern Cape Breton. The beds were comfortable and the room is big enough for four adults. It also had Wifi (great for teenagers)We ate at the restaurant, I had fish and chips which was... More

I've dined at the restaurant a few times. Always good. Hotel is getting old. The mattress most of all. The bathroom was newer and clean.

We did not stay at the motel but ate in the restaurant. It was surprisingly good. Seafood chowder was excellent. There are not many places to eat in Pleasant Bay. This is a reasonable choice.

This was a no frills motel so no: telephones in the room (pay phone ooutside), shampoo, hairdryers, coffee maker, etc. It was a rural motel so no cell phone reception (I only got cell phone by using the motels wi-fi), and there will be the occasional beetle or spider in your room. There is a decent restaurant, satellite TV, and... More

We came across this motel by accident at the end of a long day's travel and spent two nights here. The little restaurant attached to the motel is a gem. We ate Snow Crabs- a dish that requires assistance in working your way through the crab's claws. The assistance was first rate, and we can safely say that this was... More

We stayed two nights at Mountain View. The rooms are basic rooms, nothing fancy, but they are spotless, and you have freshly hung sheets on the bed that smell like the wonderful mountain air.The view of the mountains was beautiful. We were going to go whale watching, but the water was too rough. We ate at the restaurant, breakfast, dinner,... More

Our one nite stay here was very nice. Nothing to complain about; the loveseat/table made it feel homey; we were able to open the big window and get the fresh mountain air. The setting felt very relaxed being surrounded by the moutains; it was a peaceful feeling esp. after looking at so many "views" all day on the Cabot trail;... More
