We booked 3 Comfort Inns in a row - Corner Brook, NL, Amherst, N.S. and Levis, QC. We were thrilled with Corner Brook and Levis, but Amherst was very disappointing. The room was too warm and a/c didn't cool at all, the room was dated and the carpet warn out, the water pressure was poor, the room could have been... More

We were to a funeral and decided late in the day to travel from New Brunswick to Amherst because of an impending tropical storm. We checked into this Comfort Inn. The receptionist was welcoming and checked us in with friendliness and whit. She told us about a local restaurant called Conners where we ate our evening meal.

I stayed there in October on a business trip and this Comfort Inn is located in the little town of Amherst, NS. This is an honest location and you have the regular Comfort Inn amenities. The only problem is that there isn't much higher scal restaurants close to the hotel so you have to drive downtown and go eat there... More

Rooms were super clean and the service was great. Rooms on the first floor open to the interior corridors and have a "back door" that leads you right into the parking lot which is convinient to bring your bags to and from the car directly into your room. Also the hotel seemed to be within a five minute drive to... More

I've stayed at this hotel several times over the years. The current staff is friendly, & I've always had an uneventful check-in. The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance to restaurants, malls, gas, a grocery store, etc. The hotel has been around for a number of years, and they've done very little to update it. It's not in bad... More

We booked 40 rooms to accommodate our staff who were travelling from out of town to attend our Company Christmas party at a local venue and they had a wonderful stay! Staff were friendly and helpful, rooms were clean and tidy, location was perfect for our purposes and breakfast was much appreciated. A perfect stay!

We stayed here for 2 nights while on a hockey tournament with our son's hockey team. I really expected something tired and worn, and was pleasantly surprised. The halls were clean and in good repair (a first warning signal for me), the room itself was clean and had everything we needed including coffee maker, 2 beds and lots of towels.... More

This is a rather old property. Rooms are OK (they even have smoking rooms), but everything is old and somewhat run-down. avoid the free breakfast, it's truly horrible. OK for an overnight stay, but don't overdo it!
