The experience was globally disappointing.
The experience was globally disappointing. Firstly, if you come attracted for the fact of being a golf resort (the views of a golf course, having the chance of playing golf, etc), it is not the case. Once there, when I asked (by email, no personnel at all in the place), they told me that it was once a Golf Resort, but not anymore since years. Nevertheless, in the room they still offer a leaflet (picture attached) with the golf course playing options. I found that tremendously misleading and even cheating. On top of that, several additional deficiencies were found: -lack of cutletery and crockery in the room for basic eating, despite the room has fridge and microwave. - bad isolation of our cabana room, being able to hear the neighboring room.
The view of the lake is very nice

Very small town, no real town square or downtown, but had Metro groceries, an ice cream shop, Tim Hortons, beer store etc. The real draw is the large lake & area landscape, beautiful. A great stop for motorcyclists.

I went to Barrys Bay to bicycle train on the numerous hills of the area. The roads are quiet and mostly well paved. In addition to my own workouts, I was surveying bicycle routes for my club which has for the first time planned events out of Barrys Bay for May and July this year. Finding accomodation where our riders will be able to get rest between hard days on the hills may become a challenge. Overall, I engoyed the stay and my time climbing on the hills. The best place to eat is at the Ash Grove Inn which is nearby. It has a very good kitchen and a nice patio where I had a good dinner each evening.

Beautiful small town charm, friendly locals, great boating, fishing and scenic water ways. Ash Groove Inn is a great place to eat with a dock on the water to pull up and tie up boat and just across the street is the Inn. great location for boaters to stop and have a great meal

This little town is great.
This little town is great. Theres plenty of little shops and local eateries. The ash grove inn is a must for breakfast/lunch with a view of the lake. The locals will give you great recommendations for anything you're looking for. Make sure you bring your deep woods spray - the bugs will get ya!

A very nice public walk/bike path all along the water's edge. A public sandy beach in town on a very clean lake. There is also a playground for young children which would be great for travelling families. We ate at the fantastic Wilno tavern!
Overall the hotel has it's charm, the owner is very sweet and friendly, very accommodating and very helpful whether you need something for the room or you have some questions outside of hotel subject. The location of the hotel is very convenient being a walking distance away from the heart of this beautiful little town of Berry's Bay. The free WiFi is also very helpful and overall it is a very charming place. I would definitely recommend Balmoral Hotel to anyone looking for a cosy stay in this rustic but very charming place.
I love that the building and the area has a unique history. I love that the hotel continues to be used as a hotel (with upgraded plumbing and electrical) while keeping it's original charm. The owner is very friendly. Her conversation about the hotel shows her appreciation of the Balmoral's significance in the community and her commitment to maintaining it's usefulness as a commuity meeting place and comfort as a hotel.
Absolutely wonderful hotel. Right in the heart of Barrys Bay. Plenty of parking and bar/restaurant in the hotel. Hotel management was a delight. They greeted me and was very helpful with the room and check in . I would definitely book with them again. Just a pleasure to have hotel staff take an interest in making you feel welcome after a long journey.
Iris the owner was friendly and welcoming. The hotel is in a great location: close to a public park, restaurants, coffee, grocery, drug store, etc. Room was comfortable, clean and a good size. Coffee and muffins in the morning was a nice bonus! I would definitely recommend this place.
Nice exterior, lovely renovated room, very clean. Good mini-fridge with freezer compartment and mounted flat screen TV with good WiFi. Nice towels, plusher than other motels and even big hotels. Can see the mountain across the street. Good value, will come again.
Quaint old hotel from the late-1800s with modern renovations. Owners/operators were extremely nice and personable, and made the stay even more pleasurable. I was very happy that I ended up at the Balmoral in Barry's Bay.
This was like 2 star motel, no breakfast, coffee naked but no cream or milk, way to expensive for that time of the year.
They are charging like hotels 5 stars .
Way to much money for this room in September.
The location was perfect for us. There is not much available in that area. The hotel is trying to provide comfort. There is nice gazebo for breakfast, or chat. There is an access to good walking trail behind.
Exactly what I was looking for for a quiet weekend away from the city.
Property has lakefront right outside the hotel room.
The hotel room is spacious and has all the things I needed to stay with a friend.
Enjoyed the breakfast at the Mountain view motel , Better then the Hotel in Barry Bay . And no bus stop Restaurant any more .
I'll eat Mountainview motel breakfast any time .
