    After 32 years since my last visit, I was saddened to find that the bustling daily life and historical scenes of my past recollected experience were no longer present (lots of costumed interpreters, horses and carts, auctions, active village programs throughout the day, period meals served in the food purveyor spaces). The life and character of this historical fortress apparently died a COVID death as very few individuals were around to bring to life the settlement in its heyday. Barely any animals to be seen and lots of closed buildings. Our highlight was the bakery and buying fresh bread. Unfortunately a disappointment but hopefully some federal funding can inject new life into this excellent site in the near future.

    The Fortress is an amazing Canadian landmark accomplishment,...

    The Fortress is an amazing Canadian landmark accomplishment, a historical treasurer! We took 2 tours, the first was a Solider in period dress who shared his life story, and actually shot his rifle to demonstrate. He then escorted us to one of the homes, where we were met by a woman in period dress who shared life in the household and the history of homemade hot chocolate which she had prepared for us. We also booked a private tour; our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing the history of the Louisbourg fortress! Every building we entered had amazing people in period dress, sharing stories of life at that time...this experience is where history truly comes to life. Thank you Canada!

    Louisbourg is a really cute piece of Paradise, very small and quiet. The Forteresse is amazing. We really enjoyed our time there . So much history happened in Louisbourg that we did not know about. Very entertaining and educational .

    Louisburg is an amazing town with an incredibly rich history. The Heritage House reflects that beautifully with its rooms and hallways and dining areas that reflect our history. The breakfasts were just amazing and in a wonderful setting. We could walk anywhere in the town and easily access delicious food, drinks and beautiful scenery.

    We had a great time visiting the Fortress of Louisbourg and exploring some country roads in the area. Staff at the Fortress was very welcoming. It was a great experience learning about what life was like back in the 1700s

    As a history lover, the fortress is fascinating. The experience is scaled down a bit due to COVID-19 restrictions but still enjoyable seeing the site and interacting with the friendly and knowledgeable costumed guides.

    Amazing stay! Beautiful location - in good weather, & bad, it did not disappoint. The owners Colin & Justin are very hands on & visible. Extremely welcoming & work very hard to ensure their guests have a great stay. They are very ably assisted on reception by the charming Mrs Macdonald. Another great staff member is Luke J. - a young man who responded with alacrity. The rooms are beautifully decorated - tasteful, blissfully comfortable and immaculate. We enjoyed good food & drinks & Saturday night music was a bonus.

    The location is ok. The fortress is only up the road. The two meals we had in the dining room at Fortress Inn were really good. The cook is amazing! The waitress we had was wonderful as well. Not too much else going for this location except for the food and the staff. Walking trails are nice and the Point of View Suites had a lovely breakfast (this location is up towards the Fortress).

    This is the best guest house we’ve stopped in the last few years! Super clean and comfortable, located in the centre of Louisburg, 5 min drive to Fortresse. There is everything you might need: bbq, stove, microwave, teapot, coffee maker, kitchenware, TV and good wi-fi! Amazing place! We really enjoyed the stay.

    The new owners, Colin McCallister and Justin Ryan have done an amazing job of renovating and tastefully refurnishing this boutique hotel close to the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic site. Dinner at their Bothy Restaurant was excellent and Colin and Justin were very welcoming hosts.
