We felt cheated and ripped off!! If you’re reading this review make sure that you check with the property where is your room located before booking it. A cheaper price means you’re treated like dirt and put up in a room in an area “under renovation”!!!!! I don’t like leaving bad reviews for properties as it is not an easy job to manage one. BUT this “hotel” isn’t worth calling one a hotel, more like a roadside motel that isn’t kept well that you see in movies. It is a sad old place which hasn’t been maintained. There is lingering smell of smoke, dark and dreary and I’m not sure how is it rated so highly on place like booking.com and hotels.com We had the misfortune of booking this place recently as saw a good deal on hotels.com and it was the biggest mistake!! We were given a room in a section that was under renovation, the room had peeling paint, bathroom fixtures rusty, bed with no quilt! The only thing going for this property is its location and their staff that’s all. Not sure if that justifies the high rates! Pay a little extra and book elsewhere!

Clean bed & linens, clean towels, quiet surroundings. The price was very good considering what else was available.

I booked this for the price. But wish I had spent a bit more to go elsewhere. If you're looking for a place to keep you up till 2 or 3 in the morning then this is the place. We had to listen to banging, yelling, knocking on doors at all hours. You can hear a door open so on the other end of the hall. Each footstep in the hall is echoed. I couldn't even pin point which rooms around me were the problem area. The area had a heavy smoke smell. And the rooms were very minimal. Television is very basic. Beds were very lumpy and below average. Towels were limited even tho I booked ahead for 4 people. The location was about the only major positive. Plus the room was clean and cool. They are pet friendly. With a fee. There is a restaurant on the ground floor. Staff wad minimal so ive no comment otheryhan their non existence. Good luck for all future visitors.

Can I give a rating worse than terrible?? This property is far from clean, filthy hallways, dirty rooms. We stayed four nights due to family bereavement, only because there was no availability elsewhere. Day 2 the towels were replaced, the beds were made half assed, the soap/shampoo were not replenished, the coffee maker not cleaned or replenished, the cable for the tv stopped working. Day 3, beds not made, towels not changed, coffee maker still not taken care of, still no tv. This necessitated a trip to the front desk to enquire if in fact these services were included or not! After a long day out dealing with the passing of a family member, these are not issues that we needed to face

Beds are uncomfortable, walls barely block any sound, doors slam closed, awkward structure overall, parking lot is terribly designed, washroom was awkwardly tight, the shower head is short I had to duck down to wash my hair and I'm not even 6'. The only good thing about this hotel was how conveniently it is located to restaurants and shopping. Would not recommend this hotel unless you really desperately need a place to stay.

Absolutely not happy with how we were given a room that had 2 double beds when our booking was for a 1 queen bed room! The shower head is leaking in the 2 double bed room that we did not ask for, the receptionist neither of them tried to fix it and for the price we paid we might as well stayed somewhere else and gotten a better star hotel. Was on booking.com and in said email with pricing it included the breakfast but when questioned in person they said not included. Actually more peeved that the lady on the night upon arrival when giving the key she announced the room number while people were around me. And also how she didn't correctly look at the reservation for what was requested. Charged me 348.66 for the wrong room when my total on 342.70 for the requested room. Honestly not worth the money especially for the lack of service.

Very clean rooms very nice staff and Gagan Deep was a very nice person, we couldn't find a special souvenir with diamonds then he finded it and he helped bring the luggage up the stairs and down the stairs. I think he deserves a raise.

Where can I eat near The Bridgewater Hotel?

The hotel's own restaurant, Bridgewater, serves local cuisine, and its bar is a handy spot for a drink. For more options, King Street is a short walk away and has the River Pub for pub fare, Jac's Burgers and Shakes for diner-style meals, and La Casetta for pastas and paninis. Fancy Pants Café is good for breakfast or lunch, and Tacoland Mexican R offers authentic Mexican flavors. King Street Beer Company is nearby for local brews and live music.

What is the area around The Bridgewater Hotel like?

The Bridgewater Hotel sits on High Street in the heart of Bridgewater, the largest town on Nova Scotia's South Shore, along the LaHave River. The traditional King Street shopping district, with locally owned shops and restaurants, is nearby, as is the Bridgewater Mall on the east side of the river. The Wile Carding Mill Museum is a short walk away, and the DesBrisay Museum is about 2 km from the hotel. The area is known for its riverside parks, the Centennial Trail for walking or biking, and the Bridgewater Marina on LaHave Street. The hotel's own restaurant and bar offer dining on site, and the town's craft breweries and cafés are within easy reach.

How do I get to The Bridgewater Hotel from the airport or main train station?

From Halifax Stanfield International Airport (YHZ), the hotel is about 99 km away, so a taxi or ride-hailing service is the most direct option. If you prefer a pre-booked transfer, that works well too. The drive takes roughly an hour and a quarter, depending on traffic. There is no train station in Bridgewater, so road travel is the way to go. Once you reach High Street, the hotel is easy to spot in the town center.

What's there to do near The Bridgewater Hotel in the evening?

In the evening, you can stay at the hotel's own bar and restaurant for a relaxed drink or meal. For a short stroll, the Wile Carding Mill Museum is about a 0.8 km walk, and Kinsmen Field is 1 km away, though these are daytime spots. The town's King Street area, within walking distance, has places like the River Pub and King Street Beer Company for pub dining and live music. The LaHave River waterfront and nearby parks are pleasant for an evening walk. For more options, a taxi or ride-hailing can take you to the Bridgewater Mall or other local spots.

Is The Bridgewater Hotel a good base for exploring Lunenburg?

The Bridgewater Hotel is a solid base for exploring Lunenburg, though the town's main sights are a drive away. The Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic is 17.1 km from the hotel, and the Lunenburg Waterfront is 17.4 km, so plan for a short car trip. Closer to home, the Wile Carding Mill Museum is a 15-minute walk, and the DesBrisay Museum is about 2 km away. The hotel's own restaurant and bar make it easy to refuel before heading out. For day trips, you can reach Lunenburg's historic streets and waterfront comfortably by car.
