This is a mid 50's motel in reasonably good shape. The rooms are comfortably sized and clean. We stayed in the building to the left of the office, which is set back a bit. Other rooms are adjacent to the office and right on the road. There are a number of cabins behind the office. In all fairness, there wasn't... More

You might be tempted to drive right by this little Inn - it looks like your typical roadside motel - but the rooms have been renovated and are large, airy and very clean. Friendly, helpful staff and upgraded amenities like a huge jacuzzi in the bathroom plus parking right outside your door made this a welcome choice for a reasonable... More

The Lionstone in Pictou was a fabulous place to stay. The location was perfect for our adventure home base. We wanted a location we could stay that was affordable yet located so that we could take day trips around the county and surrounding areas and return to room at night. The Lionstone fit the bill perfectly! Located at the rotary... More

The Lionstonne Inn, in Pictou, is located close to the old town and close to the highway as well, but it's a quiet place close to the woods. It wasn't noisy at all, I had a great sleep there and wasn't bug by no one. There even are green spaces outside and picnic areas. You will be able to park... More

The Lionstone Inn is a very affordable location, just a minute off the highway, and close to Sobeys and a Tim Horton's. It's about a 15 minute trek to walk downtown from the Inn. The rooms are small but function. Not a lot a frills to be found here, but if your looking for an inexpensive place that has comfy... More

We stayed here August 2011. This is a wonderful place to stay. It is comprised of both a motel and cottage sections. We stayed in two cottages while there. Actually we ended up on their doorstep suddenly when our other prior accommodation went south. Dennis was gracious and kind, he booked us into one of the older cottages and then... More

I found this little motel about 3 years ago and have used it whenever I'm in Pictou. This place is excellent value for your dollar with tastefully decorated rooms and those little extras you'd expect in higher priced accommodations. The ;location is excellent, an easy stroll from the supermarket and morning coffee. Pictou itself is a delightful little town, with... More
