North Hatley accommodation from AU$158

Lovely hotel with great amenities. Staff is super friendly.

We stayed as a large group with adults and kids to view the April, 2024 eclipse. The accommodations were top notch. Everything was very clean, there were plenty of towels, and bedrooms had recently renovated and nicely appointed private bathrooms (really, it's hard to stress how many bathrooms there are in this place!). The kitchen has industrial appliances: an enormous fridge, a giant standing freezer, a huge gas range, an enormous amount of cutlery and dishes, and a dishwasher that runs cycles in only 2 minutes (!!!!). This place is made to feed the masses, which was great for our large group. The hosts were quick and responsive to e-mails. The checkout process was quick and easy. Note that parking on premises was a little tricky with a lot of cars (5 - I think up to 4 is probably fine), but the elementary school parking lot across the street and street parking are also available. The house is across from the elementary school which has a small playground, and a short walk from the North Hatley "downtown" which has a cafe, pub, and nice chocolatier (they had really delightful truffles). It's also a short walk from the public sauna, and another little park with a playground and access to a rail trail. A public waterfront is across the street. We had spectacular weather to view the eclipse, but even if we didn't, this would have been a great place to spend the weekend with family and friends.

Great place for families with young children!
