We rolled up to Dolan's, Pictou on our motorcycle (at the location shown in photo above) in September, having made loose arrangements with the innkeeper (didn't need a firm booking due to time of year) only to find a an empty inn BUT friendly instructions on the door as to how to proceed. We entered, phoned the # given and... More

Our family stayed in a Dolan's Inn and Suites in downtown Pictou prior to catching the ferry. The lady from Dolan's had us set up on the third floor of a building but upon seeing our luggage, and my bad knee, she took us to another one of their suites closer to the center of Pictou. The accommodations were great... More

After reading the reviews this place seems to get mixed ratings and I can see why., I asked the proprietor how many rooms they had...20+ in various buildings. This isn't clear online. We booked a 'silver' room...and were upgraded to a one bedroom apartment in a different building. Brand new..yellow building right near Sharon's diner. Full kitchen, big bathroom. No... More

We've spent two holidays (July 2010, and again in July 2011) with Dolan's Inns, both times staying at the Silver House (and for part of one visit, staying at the apartment beside the convenience store). Relative to the cost of other accommodation in the area, these apartments are excellent value. For less than the price of a hotel room, you... More

A group of 5, all in our 40's and 50's from Germany and Canada. Owner is a uniformed policeman who stood infront at his cop car with his K9 dog watching us the whole time while we unloaded without any introduction making us think we were getting a ticket. Then later that night his manager barged into our apartment at... More

Very sweet owners. Clean comfortable room with immaculate bathroom. Slept extremely well on the nice bed. Breakfast provided in town. Excellent value for the money, would definitely recommend!

We stayed in one of their apartments and as we drove up to it we already felt dread. It is located right beside a convenience store and there is no parking except for in front of a very large garbage bin. When we entered, it didn't look too bad but when we started to look around we noticed just how... More

My wife and I stayed here one night. The room was clean and the inn provided us with a crib. The room also has a nice balcony (would be a great view if it wasn't for the paper factory across the river!). It's on the outskirts of town and easy to find. There is also a small fridge in the... More

I had to come to Pictou on business, and wasn't expecting much. This place was recommended, and I spoke to Maureen, the proprietor, as it was short notice. I was put in what is basically a fully equipped 3 bed apartment, for less than the cost of a budget chain hotel. They have normal rooms too, but the apartment option... More
