Welcome to the Grand Narrows Hotel!

The Grand Narrows Hotel, a designated heritage property circa 1887, is located on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada. Standing prominently on the eastern shores of the Barra Strait on the Bras d'Or Lakes, the Hotel (circa 1887) is intrinsically tied to the rich history and culture of the area and is an enduring testament to the era in which it rose.

Our location on a large beachfront property ensures guests can enjoy swimming in the clean, crystal waters of Bras d'Or, the largest and most beautiful salt-water lake in the world. Stroll down a quiet country road that hugs the shoreline where two natural marshes provide shelter to abundant birds and other wildlife. Eagles soar overhead as you relax on the large front deck overlooking the water, watching the sunset over Iona in breathtaking colors.

The Grand Narrows Hotel is conveniently located in central Cape Breton making it the ideal home-base for traveling to many of the Island's destinations.
