Our stay was very comfortable and the person who checked u in was soooo helpful. went out of her way to help us with finding things in the area like beaches and places to eat Would stay there again in a minute thanks
It was in a well situated area, 25 minutes from the ferry, with a few local restaurants within 10 minutes for local flavour, and north Sydney just 15 minutes away if you want a chain restaurant
Kelly's View is a great place to stay. There aren't a million amenities, and the spot is a little older, but if you're looking for a clean place to stay with friendly staff this place does the trick. I believe the owners are slowly puttering away at upgrades to the facilities, but as is I would recommend to anyone!
This was a great overnight stop on our trip! The staff working was super friendly and helpful and the views from just outside our door were amazing! It was Just a short drive to get some food.
The only complaint we would have is the walls are so thin, we could hear absolutely everything from the room on either side of us. One side was a family with young children and a baby who cried quite a bit and the other side was two couples who we could hear, laughing and talking well into the night.
The rooms at Kelly's View Motel were VERY neat, tidy and clean, everything you would need in a place to stay. The bed and the entire room was so comfortable. My room was pet friendly and the staff were super friendly. For a motel I would give it a 5 otta 5. I will be staying there again
Kelly's View Hotel was under fairly new management. But they sure know how to take care of their customers. We arrived on motorcycles and it began to rain. The staff told us the best places to eat and even offered to go get our food for us so we wouldn't have to ride in the rain. The parking area is all gravel so its a little dicey on motorcycles. The view is spectacular. Will definitely stay there again. The room was really clean and roomy. THANK YOU!!!
Great motel - just outside North Sydney. It's very quiet. Convenient if you are taking the ferry to Newfoundland (or coming back to Nova Scotia on the ferry). Clean and comfortable.
Great place to stay. Friendly staff, clean rooms and off the highway.
Not a lot of TV channel choices but a great nights rest.
I liked it so much I went back for another night!!
Thanks for great nights of sleep.
