I've read many, not so nice, reviews on the restaurant. I don't know if it's because of the new management, or if there's a new chef......but I've ate there twice now and was really impressed. The meals were delicious, the serving sizes were large and the service was great. There was only one waitress both times I was in there,... More

We have stayed at the Best Western Sword Inn many times before, but this visit ranks as one of the most restful, as we both slept quite well on very comfortable beds. On a separate point, at the time of check-out we left a couple of items behind in our room, but were able to retrieve them when we returned... More

Stayed at this location with a hockey team. This hotel was booked over other accomodations in the area due to the fact that there is a pool. Please keep in mind that this location is motel style, thus you will have to steak through the parking lot with wet children to access your room after a swim. The rooms are... More

Mrs. Finch, On behalf of the Best Western, Sword Motor Inn I do apologize for any dissatisfactions that you had with us during your stay. But please keep in mind that when booking your room we did give you a group rate discount. Having a pool on our premises is what everyone looks forward to and that is why there... More

When we arrived we were in the lobby for a good 20 minutes for check in, and it didn't seem that busy, but they were acting like a bus load of people just came in. When we got to our room it was in the very back of the hotel the apparent 'new part' with slanted floors, which was muggy,... More

I have given this hotel a 3 rating because of the friendly staff, however the rooms are tired and musty. There was a man smoking in the non-smoking room and I found a pillow under the dresser which I left there. Location is good and parking is good. I stayed on the 2nd floor with narrow balconies. They have chair... More

Spent a night here on a road trip through Central and Eastern Ontario. This hotel is very clean, comfortable and quiet despite being very busy. Hotel staff are friendly and what more could one ask for!

We go to Bancroft once a summer. When I was a kid we would stay in the Sword Motel. We sold our cottage 2 years ago and now go up and stay a hotel. This year I thought "Stay in the Sword." Now while we were there we were very pleased with the hotel. Vito's across the street is awesome... More
