Our stay at the Dalvay was fantastic. The hotel is beautiful and the staff was so friendly and accomodating. The restaurant was equally as good and I highly recommend trying the chicken dinner and chowder. The hotel grounds were so peaceful. I highly recommend this hotel.

We loved this Inn! Impeccable staff, grand interior, lovely food/dining. We enjoyed having coffee in the library in the morning and reading before breakfast. A wonderful stay! My only minor note is that in the upstairs wing where we stayed, the walls are pretty thin so you can hear others.

A beautiful heritage building, warm and welcoming! Staff were pleasant and helpful, the restaurant was great. Just a great vibe in an old building with lots of history in a beautiful location in the park. Enjoyed the large fireplace in the entry. The grounds are beautiful too.

Excellent hospitality. One of the most charming places I’ve stayed. If back in the area, wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. The smell of firewood fills the place in the most comforting way. It was clean, quiet, and full of old world charm.

I cant say enough about how nice the property is and the staff is friendly. Walking the grounds down the the lake was really nice and a short walk to the beach for viewing a sunset tops off the evening. You can then come back to the Inn to enjoy a drink by one of their fireplaces.

Cozy Honeymoon

We really loved staying here for our honeymoon. The whole experience was very peaceful, quiet and cozy. The building itself was amazing to stay in, such a well preserved piece of history. The room had stunning views, was so comfortable and very clean! Staff were very kind and always made sure everything we needed was there. Had breakfast and dinner in the restaurant, which was delicious. Very helpful and accommodating for food sensitivities. One of our favourite things to do was to relax by the fireplace. Can’t wait for our next visit already!!
