Very well kept; pleasant atmosphere

Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Fabulous, large, clean room with comfortable bed and linens. Staff was friendly and responsive. Still doing breakfast drop-offs due to COVID - they were great but variety was limited for a week long stay.

Beautiful, historic building. The air was excellent, and I was staying in a pet-friendly room.
Andrew, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Expensive and no service, rooms not made daily. Had to wait for the one staff member to show up and get service at the reception counter.
Aldo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Love the historic feel of the building but with very modern amenities. Very quiet even though it is on the main and not too far away from dining options and shopping malls. So close to nature with lots of green space but the historic feel of the old Ancaster Village is preserved. My third stay and I really enjoyed it!.

beautiful building. One staff we spoke to was lovely, the other we seemed to be inconveniencing by existing. Also even though COVID restrictions had been lifted they are still delivering breakfast to the rooms rather than having their buffet. Which is a shame because breakfast was pleasant but underwhelming and the breakfast room looked really nice.

Location to Ancaster Mill excellent nearby hiking trails with waterfalls as well. We had a couple of snow falls and thought the clearing of snow should have been better. Wonderful stay will go again.

We had a great stay at The Barracks Inn, it's a very clean hotel and the area around is quiet. The only thing we didn't enjoy is our breakfast which was not that great since it was a continental breakfast delivered to our room.

4/10 Fair

This is my second stay. The room that I was given doesn't look anything like the room in the photo here, left of this review box, nor to the one shown on the booking I made. This one is evidently on the second floor, which I always prefer and select when going to hotels; also the furnishings of the room I was given were all dark--nice in their own way, but not my preference. I had wanted to stay in that room shown to the left, and shown on my booking. The room given was on the main floor, beside the back entrance to the parking area, so I heard that door opening and closing often at night and in the morning before I left. In the morning also, loud voices shouted down the hall, which I think were of hotel staff. So when I refer to "Quiet" for the area of Ancaster, which is nice, I am not referring to the hotel itself. The view of the parking area was not at all appealing of course. The bright lights that illuminate the parking lot, good for safety reasons, does come through and around the window dressings, which made sleeping difficult. I like a black-out effect for sleeping, as bright lights keep me awake. I didn't fall asleep until 4am, and the bed was lumpy and the pillows too soft; there were only two in the room. The toiletries were of poor quality; the hand lotion so bad I had to wash it off. I had tried the shampoo and conditioner on my last stay, but it made my hair dry and brittle, thus I avoided these these this time. The "bottle" of wine was only 1/2 a bottle.
Maria, 1-night trip

Amazing!

One of the nicest, cleanest hotels I have stayed in. The Barracks Inn has gone above and beyond with everything from easy, polite checkin to covid policies. Absolutely loved our stay…can’t wait to return!

Felt like royalty

This is the first four-star hotel I've ever stayed at that felt like it DESERVED the four-star rating. Free parking, free wifi, an extremely spacious and beautiful room (they upgraded us for free!) and the staff was next-level friendly and helpful. I felt like royalty.
