Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had top-rate room amenities but the furnishings were a bit disappointing, and there was a stale odor initially that improved after airing out the room. The staff was very professional and eager to please, offering valet parking even though there was no readily available parking. The location, although elegant and peaceful, had some noise from late-night pub customers due to the front street location but was perfectly situated for exploring Charlottetown. The dining experience was great, with a simple but well-stocked selection, although it could get busy during peak times. The facilities were comfortable and welcoming, making for a pleasant stay.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were nice and homey, but the cooling system struggled to reach all corners. The location was cozy and spacious, yet the street noise could be bothersome at times. Dining offered good variety, but fell short compared to the overall quality. Overall, a charming historic hotel with some areas for improvement.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were sumptuous, luxurious, comfortable, and filled with Canadian history, creating a truly unique experience. The service was amazing, with friendly and extremely helpful staff. The location was perfect for exploring Charlottetown, although the front street could get a bit noisy at times. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of options, and the facilities were top-notch.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were cozy and charming, complete with 2 small balconies and a jacuzzi. The service was exceptional, with helpful recommendations and a refreshing welcome drink. The location was unbeatable, right by the waterfront and all the best dining spots. Although the dining was just average, the overall experience was fantastic and worth every penny.
Staying at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, although facing the Main Street, were clean and the bathroom impressed me with its lovely design and a fantastic rain shower. The proximity to restaurants and entertainment added to the convenience. However, the street noise could be a bit distracting at times.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was quiet, private, and nicely appointed, featuring a comfortable bed, clean towels, and even ear plugs in case it got noisy outside. The service was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful, making my experience even better. The location was perfect for my vacation, within walking distance to all amenities and the entertainment district. The dining options were varied and tasty, ensuring a delightful start to my day. Overall, a great value for a relaxing stay in Charlottetown.
