“Excellent value. Clean, hospitality is exceptional and the view is fabulous!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2009

I have stayed at several hotels in the area for years and was always curious about the Sunset Inn. Earlier this year all the known named hotels were booked for a conference so we stayed at the Sunset. What a wonderful surprise! The rooms have a rustic charm. They are very clean, everything is in very good condition, nothing was in need of repair. Muffins and coffee are available for breakfast and they will even deliver it to your room. The waterfront is lovely any time of day. There's always someone on the pier if you feel like chatting. A lightbulb in my room was out and I called the front desk. Immediately the owner was there to fix it (I hadn't turned it on correctly!) He is very cheerful and willing to please. His wife ran the front desk and she is equally as pleasant. I'll be back again in a few weeks and I'm looking forward to it. It's about $15 more than the hotel I use to stay at but it's worth every extra penny. Oh, and the bed and pillows!!! Like marshmallows!!!! It cradles me to sleep!

“Nice suites, good food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2009

I always stay at the Sunset. Jeff and his staff are great. I always book one of the new suites which compare to the best suites anywhere for comfort, decor and amenities. The White Owl is North Bay's finest restaraunt. Great food, great ambiance, great friendly service from a knowledgable staff.

“Amazing room with a great view”

We stayed at the Sunset Inn for a weekend in June 2009. The service and room were amazing. Great view of the lake from the front window. Complimentary fresh baked muffins and a newspaper also arrived at our suite door in the morning. A nice touch!

We would definiatly stay here again.

“NICE STAY AT SUNSET INN - North Bay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 March 2009

We almost did not stay at the Sunset Inn after reading the poor reviews but decided to give it a chance as it was located next to The White Owl Bistro. I agree that it could use some upgrades and the ancient hair blower did give us a giggle. I will say that our room 203 was clean and comfortable. The girl at the desk was very friendly and offered to bring us muffins, coffee and the morning paper at any convenient time for us. The table for two in front of the fireplace was a nice touch and the outdoor balcony was a nice treat to sit out on during an early spring afternoon. I did think it was a bit overpriced even with a discount.( The room with taxes was $196.00) We LOVED the White Owl Bistro. We enjoyed an unhurried 3 hour meal with excellent food and service.

“Drops in quality every year they neglect it!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 March 2009

We just spent the weekend here. It's usually one of my first choices because of it's location, decor and general value. However, this weekend, with the icy parking lot, the bird crap all over the outside floors, the noisy fireplace, the ancient hairdryer and the wall damage in the bathroom, I might not stay here again. They will serve you muffins in the morning only if you request it and they do let you borrow dvd's. Also, always ask for a lower rate for the rooms and you usually get it. Our room was normally $129 and went down to $109 when requested. We stayed in room 204. The room had 2 beds, one queen and one double. A gas fireplace and table with chairs, wine glasses and a candle was a nice touch. There is a fridge and dvd player, a basic bathroom(watch the step) and make sure you shut the front door well, or it will blow open at the worst moment! The curtains has little holes in the plastic drapes and beside the tub there was ongoing damage and repairs to the wall(water damage). What I thought was dirt outside on the outdoor carpet, was bird crap and it stayed all weekend! There was wax on the indoor carpet and it would be nice to have an optional blanket in the boxes at the end of the beds. The owners need to step into each room to notice these small issues instead of waiting for guests to complain or the cleaning staff to mention something! Spend a little money to fix up the rooms and keep your guests happy and returning! The White Owl Bistro next door has great food but it's not cheap! No DMF! We may not return.

We have recently done some upgrades and renovations to our rooms. We have installed new hairdryers, painted our bathrooms and always take pride in our establishment. We try to please every customer that walks in our door and go above and beond any other chain hotel. if you stay here you would know from the moment you walk through our doors to the morning when we run you up freshly baked muffins, coffee and the paper.
