Absolutely LOVED my stay at 16 Bay View! From the private little deck, to the jetted tub, to the cute little restaurant downstairs! It was absolutely what I needed! Thank you for the lovely service! I will definitely be back.

Extremely comfortable room
Really comfortable room. Bed and shower are particularly outstanding. Location is great. I was disappointed that the kitchen was closed - has a small menu but I had heard good things about it. No sure what the issue was.

The hotel was clean. The free breakfast was delicious every morning and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The only complaint I have is that the rooftop area, one of the reason we picked 16 Bay View, was closed for the season and there was no prior notice that it would be closed.

My best friend and I stayed here for 2 nights and we absolutely loved this hotel. Our room was beautiful, comfortable, and well-appointed. We each enjoyed the soaking tub and spa shower. The fireplace was also a nice touch! We very much enjoyed the complimentary breakfast - much more than just run-of-the-mill continental offerings. Think locally made maple bacon donuts, eggs, and sausage. Parking is available, but a bit tricky. We would absolutely stay here again.

Good location within Camden. Check in was fine though parking is a challenge if you arrive late. Breakfast was good with some fresh baked goods as well as eggs, bacon and granola. Our room was fine but the carpet looked like it could do with a clean.

The property and town look amazing online…especially the rooftop bar. We were there for 4 nights and each night the rooftop bar was unavailable due to a different event being scheduled. It also created impossible noise levels including a karaoke bar across the road with open windows that doesn’t close until 2 am. The beds and room looked great but the mattress was uncomfortable. All in all a disappointing time when we had such high expectations.

Hotel is good, fine, not phenomenal or great. Parking bit tricky but manageable b/c fellow at front desk kind and helpful, will handle car for you. Has good attitude, wants guests to enjoy themselves. Location of property excellent, right in heart of Camden. Hotel elevator very slow; suggest using stairs unless hauling luggage.

This is the perfect hotel for a late winter visit. The entire hotel was cozy and the bar was attractive as well as cozy. They have thought of a lot of little things to make your stay nice - lots of tea and coffee stations, pet greeting board (and treats), a welcome glass of Prosecco - all this adds up to feeling wonderfully treated. A big thanks for 16 Bay View for a lovely stay.

This property from the moment you walk in takes you back in time. The Vintage Room is amazing, eclectic, amazing drinks available to order, the food is great! The breakfast included is great as well!
