Super helpful and friendly new owners, trying hard to spruce up this tired treasure of a hotel. Will definitely return once the sprucing up is complete. Classic 19th century interior with splendid staircase and bar. Don't be out of by the need of a new exterior paint job.

Diamond in progress

We only spent one night here, but loved it and plan to return again. This inn IS quirky, and quaint and so long as you go with the right expectations - you'll have a great time. It's not a Marriott... it's an old fashioned inn, a little past it's hey-day, but charming and exactly what we look for in a little village like Knowlton. 

Auberge Lakeview in is walking distance to everything in the village of Knowlton. It's located on a quiet street. It's clean, and the owners truly care about their inn. Between COVID and people who are more interested in swishy boutique hotels, I'm sure the last few years have been pretty tough for them, but our impression is they are doing their best with the hand they've been dealt. (So, try it, check it out - go with an open mind). 

Yup, it's a bit dated - but it's different - and that's cool. Did I mention - it's clean. It has a lot of character - and Shelly who looks after the tea room and bar (and seems to wear many hats) has some great stories about its history and even some fun ghost stories. She's very personable and bubbly. 

The restaurant was closed when we were there, but that was fine - there are some lovely restaurants in Knowlton to check out and in neighbouring Sutton (15 minutes away) or Bromont. We didn't watch TV or bother with the internet - instead we recommend taking an evening stroll or checking out Brome Lake Books and picking up something great to read (you might even run into author Louise Penny if you're very lucky). We popped into the bar in the evening for a chat and a whiskey with Shelly, and played a few tunes for her (we're musicians).  It made for a lovely evening. 

Old inns like these are gems, and sadly disappearing... If you like really fluffy pillows, toss yours in the car and bring it. The price is pretty reasonable compared to what other places are charging, it's in a quiet location, and offers all the necessities (minus the frills). Think of it as a fun adventure. We look forward to returning.

A Diamond in the Rough - Give it a Chance, and Have some Fun!

So planned a last minute romantic get away for my wife and I. Almost everywhere was booked solid so was happy to find something in the general area we wanted

Pluses 
- Super Super Clean  
- Very Friendly and helpful stuff 
-Nice neighborhood 
-Outdoor Pool
_Charming 

Neutral, can't really call this a negative but this place is super dated yes it opened in 1873 but somethings could use some updated it does feel like you are visiting that Aunt that  never married

Negative 
No AC  however the ceiling fan was quite powerful and if you opened the window it was doable 
Internet was terrible 
No elevator ( be warned the railing on the stairs is super low and can be awkward for anyone tall
Price  - wasn't outrageous but was not a bargain but it was a long weekend so not that terrible  

SUPER SUPER SMALL Pillows ( see if can ask for a couple extras)

Enjoyable

This is a unique place, where you can feel that you go back in time...very special hotel boutique museum, with excellent customer service. Run by family members who care about your stay.  i would recommend it.

Amazing place, very clean and great service!

We five women spent two nights at this quaint inn. The owner and staff provided helpful personal attention, adding to our enjoyment of beautiful Knowlton. The hotel is walking distance to restaurants and shops.

Personal Service

Was treated like a trespasser. Van,the owner,
was ignorant and rude.  Not really sure why anyone would go there let alone Hillary Clinton.  Larry, the night watchman was very accomidating and polite.  Again , the owner , wasn't understanding and raised his voice to me.   No meals were available.

Terrible ownership

Service was slow. Food was ok but cold. No one came to ask how are meal was until we had finished. No apology when I said meal was cold and bland and service was slow. We only stayed because we were there for a show. The show was fantastic. Laura Teasdale and Ralph Steiner, incredible performers.

Went for dinner

If you're looking for a rustic (lost in the 50's) this is the place to stay.  Comfortable, overstuffed period sofas and chairs in the lobby.  Lots of wood and wallpaper.  The room was small but comfortable with a modern bathroom.  Comfortable bed.  The only negative is we were told breakfast was $7.00 what we were't told is that is for toast and coffee, which was not available.  The only breakfast was a full one at $14.00.  Otherwise all good

Rustic yet comfortable

My sister and I are in our sixties. We stayed at the Auberge Lakeview for two nights while we attended, with anticipation, the Louise Penny book launch of Glass Houses. We stayed in a room on the second floor that had two twin beds and looked out the front to the road.  We knew that there are no elevators and that the Auberge is not a modern facility. The photos on the Auberge website are a pretty accurate depiction of what you should expect. At times we giggled at some of the eccentric decor and even wondered if we'd detect any spiritual senses (which we did not). The bathroom sink is in the bedroom area. There is no closet but a wardrobe. Inside the wardrobe we found the television. It did work with a remote control but was only about 12 inches wide. No flat screens here! The lighting in the hallway to our assigned room was a little bit wacky. During the day the lights are on but at night when we'd come down the hall the lights are off and on a sensor. If you jumped up and down and waved your arms, they might have sensed us and come on, or not. There is wifi, but not in the room we had. We were told that there's too much copper in the walls. There is a sitting area upstairs, with a settee where you could get wifi. There is a restaurant on site for breakfast, lunch and supper, but we didn't eat there. It was a comfortable walk back-and-forth to the shops and restaurants in the area. It was with delight that we found the open-air farmers market on Saturday morning on our way to the village and picked up some local fresh food items. From there we took the pathway to the village.  Two different evenings we drove down to the marina (which is not far from the Auberge) and had drinks and a bite to eat while enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and view of Lac Brome. We paid approximately $130 before taxes for each night. There is a pool but we didn't use it and never saw anyone in it.

A step back in time

A very quiet, cute, quaint and comforatble.
A little far from restaurants and services, but a nice stay and friendly staff.
The restaurant and pub were unfortunately closed so we did not have the opportunity to experience either.
