There is no AC, you can open the windows but expect to be woken by early morning traffic. Restaurant was really good. Location and view, spectacular. Full view of Bluenose while you are sweating out the night. Very limited breakfast options in town.

Parking is an issue. Prepare to pay at a meter with change and move your car after checking in. Stunning view and very clean. Food at the restaurant was superb as well.

The cutest room we have stayed at! Beautiful view of the ocean. Decorated lovely. We are sad now that we checked into a chain hotel and wish we were back above the salt shaker! If you haven’t booked it yet, DO IT!!

Property was clean at first site. Once you started to looked around there was dust on the coffee pot, dishes and glasses, also Around the floor boards. So the cleaning lady should really do a detail cleaning once and awhile instead of a quick clean.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This room was such a nice surprise. It had a partial kitchen, which I didn’t use (surrounding restaurants around are amazing, but is a great option to have) and the upstairs bedroom and bathroom were wonderful. The bed was so soft and comfortable plus the bathroom had a jacuzzi tub and shower. I used the jacuzzi tub twice, such a wonderful surprise. I had a small window with a view of the bay, with a nice seating area as well. Another highlight, no keys needed, there was a code for the front door and the room—wonderfully easy. There are stairs required, so keep that in mind, but if stairs aren’t an issue, this property is in the heart of everything and a wonderful stay.

We stayed two nights at the Salt Shaker, and loved our room. It was clean and modern while fitting the seaside vibe of historic Lunenburg. Our visit was in March, and really, the Salt Shaker is the only game in town….but gathering there for coffee, lunch, dinner or drinks is an absolute pleasure for visitors and locals, alike. We recommend the Salt Shaker Deli and Inn as a whole. The staff are kind, helpful and fun….and your stay will be comfortable, with great food, and great views. Thank you!

Stayed 1 night in a 1 BDR suite. Furnishings were lovely and everything was spotless. Good quality linens and comfortable bed. Hide-a-bed also very comfortable. Location was, of course, fantastic. Steep stairs into the room and in the room but totally fine for us. Parking is a bit of a challenge but that’s normal for small historic towns such as Lunenburg. Highly recommend.

Great location with a very quaint atmosphere. Only 5 rooms in the Inn, above the restaurant which closed at 9pm to accommodate guests in the rooms above. Food in the restaurant is excellent and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The room should hav air conditioning installed. We were there in May before it was too warm outside and still found the room too warm, even with a ceiling fan. Bathroom could use an exhaust fan.

If you are looking for a great location, this is it. Right downtown lunenberg and fabulous spot for roaming the tow. For the overall room, it’s a lot smaller than I pictured online and needs some updating. Linens were nice but things were in need of replacing like old rugs and towels.
