Fairmont House Bed & Breakfast is a charming historic B&B in Mahone Bay where guests consistently praise the warm, hands-on hosts, exceptionally good and varied cooked-to-order breakfasts, very clean, comfortable rooms, and a convenient, walkable waterfront location.

Guests also note the building's age, with multiple stairs, some uneven entry steps, and a few compact or awkward bathrooms that may challenge those with mobility issues. Overall, it's a relaxed, low-key base in a character-filled house.

A quirky 1800’s house in a charming little town. Hosts were friendly, accommodating, available! Good meal at the pub across the street on their waterfront deck. Good stop close to Lunenburg. Steps up to our room (we’re in our 70’s) and host jumped in and carried our bags - whew! Would definitely come back.

The Fairmont is a lovely historic property with all of the charm of a period house. I appreciated that pur room was next to a sitting room with a fridge, wine glasses, and napkins. Having a fresh set of towels every day was also greatly appreciated. Thomas and Michael were wonderful hosts. The breakfast was phenomenal, with locally sourced food, and plentiful.

Lovely Bed and Breakfast close to everything. If you have mobility issues, quite a few stairs and steps and we found the tub too high to get in and did not have a grab bar. The owner was very friendly and helpful and we had a nice breakfast.

How’s the resort location I guess you get what you pay for. The entry steps were very uneven but that was balanced by a wonderful breakfast provided by the hosts. The property is self seemed a bit rundown.

Small, historic B&B in a good location. Phenomenal breakfast, hot choices are freshly cooked, lots of fruit, yoghurt, cereal, jams etc. Richard and Thomas are friendly, helpful hosts. The queen room does have a tiny bathroom with a step up to enter, but works fine. It also has a small roof light with no curtain/blind so if light disturbs you, you may want an eyemask
