Ever since I have read Paul Mason's book "On Battered Soles" about a fictional pilgrimage from Peterborough to Lakefield have wanted to visit Peterborough. The Ottanabee Inn is close to the start of this fictional walk north of Beavermead Park. I was impressed with the location of the hotel a beautifully landscaped parklike setting which sits beside a branch of... more

I spent a couple of days at this hotel and had a marvelous time. When we first arrived we got a non-smoking room that smelled like someone had smoked in it. We brought this to the attention of the front desk and they swiched our rooms right then and there. They warmed my baby's milk and even held him while... more

From the first phone call to enquire about the hotel until checkout, we appreciated the helpful friendly service. Their website was very useful (I was impressed that it described the maintenance schedule for the pool). The answers on the phone were even more thorough and helpful. (I talked with Alan & Amanda). Resort-like is perhaps an exaggeration depending on which... more

My partner and myself decided to spend a night here and enjoy the jacuzzi & fireplace suite. The website describes the hotel as a "resort-like" setting. They also give you the impression it's on the river and has nice scenery... let's just say it's exaggerated a bit. It's nothing special. But the hotel building itself is overall quite nice.

Stayed for one night on the way home at the end of a long trip. The room, although non-smoking was very stuffy and moldy smelling and had probably been smoked in for the first years of the hotel's existence. The room was very dated & in some disrepair. The bedding was pink floral sheets which seemed very un-hotel like and... more

We stayed at this property for a full week and were very satisfied with our stay. The room was large and had a desk for use of my laptop with their free wireless internet. The hotel backs on to a small quiet river which is very relaxing to walk by in the eveining where they have park benches and a... more

Older hotel but fairly well kept. Pre-booked our room and check-in was easy. The room was older but clean. The heat and air seemed to be full hot or cold and hard to control. Our balcony overlooked a stream and would be nice in the summer. Parking was in a courtyard and quite secure. Good nights sleep aside from the... more

I arrived around 4PM on a Tuesday looking for a non-smoking, Main floor room for one night. I was "lectured" that I should have made reservations, things were getting booked up and all they had was an upstairs room, great I thought and took it. I went down to the main desk to ask about restaurants in the area and... more

A nice secret hide away. Very clean, nice grounds on a waterway, courteous staff, super Breakfast Room. Only problem no lunch / dinner dining facilities more
