Riverside Inn

What guests think

Across many reviews, Riverside Inn is praised for its spotless, comfortable rooms and modern bathrooms, relaxing hot tub and sauna, and a scenic, walkable riverside location close to restaurants and trails.

Check in is self service via entry codes; several guests appreciated the smooth process and independence, while a few missed in person interaction or found the key system a bit tricky. A well stocked shared kitchen provides a DIY continental breakfast; amenities also include inviting outdoor areas and an EV charger, with a few notes about pet friendly touches and icy parking in winter. While feedback on breakfast is mostly positive, a few guests called it basic, and a couple reported booking mix ups. Overall, it suits travelers who prefer independence and modern comforts in a scenic small town base.

We are so glad we had chosen this place! Nice, clean, well-maintaned B&B. Breakfast was a little too basic, but it's OK. And we even had no time to use their outside hottub and inside sauna :( Definitely would take it the next time around. Thank you, guys!

We booked to stay in this property twice. Book the suite if available. We loved the larger space and the separate tub and shower. We enjoyed the independence in using the amenities especially the sauna and kitchen with breakfast included. Friendly staff and owner and don’t forget to pet the adorable in home dog.

Lovely inn on a quiet street right on the river, walkable to several restaurants and a supermarket. Contactless check in and checkout were easy and convenient. Our room was clean, comfortable and well appointed with a mini-fridge and Keurig coffeemaker. Bathroom was larger than expected, with a nice tiled shower with a rain showerhead and hand held wand. A DIY continental breakfast is included. The kitchen is well stocked with breakfast breads, cereals, fruit, yogurt, eggs, coffee and tea. It is well equipped with the usual small appliances, pots, pans, utensils - make your own breakfast on your own schedule, clean up after yourself, just like home. The inn also has a sauna and outdoor hot tub which we didn’t get the chance to use. Also has a level 2 EV charger, which we did use. We enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to come back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was spacious, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The soaking tub was amazing! We also enjoyed using the well stocked, very clean community kitchen to make our breakfast. It was right around the corner from The Dock, a great Irish Pub. We highly recommend The Riverside Inn if you are visiting New Glasgow!!! Excellent in every way!

Wow. What a gorgeous Inn! We stayed in a suite one night with the most amazing bathroom. The second night just a bedroom also with a great bathroom. Everything was so clean and hip. We weren't use to not having a front desk, having to use codes to get in. Not too much of a problem. Right on the river in Interesting New Glasgow.

I'm sure it would have been great because members of my family stayed there and loved it. When I went to check in there was no record of my reservation even though I had an Expedia confirmation number. They were fully booked so I had to find somewhere else to stay which was disappointing. I don't know if this was a Riverside problem or Expedia.

Lovely property. A bit different and certainly not for kids. It's a renovated, very grand old house. No reception, all pre arranged entry codes, so little or no human contact. Grab your own breakfast from the provided foods. You can even make your own eggs if you want. Certainly not for everyone, but we enjoyed it.

Unique, as there was no owner at the actual property, however he was available by phone if needed. Lovely old house , completely renovated to a high standard. Shareable kitchen with everything supplied for breakfast, do it yourself style. Ground floor suite and easy back door entrance & parking. Great for us old folk who dont like stairs. There are 4 suites downstairs. Not a lot to do in New Glasgow but close to Pictou & Antigonish. We enjoyed the Appleseed diner for supper.
