New owners were up front and centre from check in to check out. My daughter and I stayed for two nights. We were walking distance to restaurants, to Victoria park, it Florence Simmons performance centre Where we had tickets to a production of Anne and Gilbert the musical. Breakfast each morning was over the top. Something for everyone…I don’t eat dairy or non-sourdough bread and the dairy free options were many. Sourdough bread would be nice to add to the menu but it didn’t stop me from enjoying bacon, sausages, hash Browns, cereal ( with non-dairy milk options). Lots of pastries for those who find the a must. Cannot recommend this place enough.
EEdRocksterWhat a charming and quirky hotel. Charlottetown is a lovely small city, dotted with historic buildings. One of those is the Dundee Arms Inn. The lobby and common areas aren't air conditioned, and we arrived on a particularly warm day. I worried as I entered carrying our things up to our third floor room. Thankfully, the room had a very efficient air conditioner. The room had lots of character, almost magical. You enter into a sitting area with a sofa, tables, a desk, etc. To the left was a small but tasteful bathroom with the cutest little tub! The angles of the roof cast intriguing shadows. THe large and sturdy bed was situated in the turret, making for a tight squeeze for us larger men, but the space was a whimsical escape. The inn includes a large deck with numerous tables, mostly for drinks from the bar, but it's also a great place to dine on breakfast delivered from nearby eateries. The only real drawback is the lack of elevator. My advice for couples is to pack one small bag for both. That will save numerous trips up and down the stairs.
My partner, myself and our 2 pups LOVED our time at the Comfort Inn in Charlottetown. We unexpectedly found ourselves here as our previous accommodations elsewhere where horrendous. The staff at the front desk were extremely empathetic and kind. They were able to provide us a king-size ground floor for our dogs (that level is pet friendly) and us. The complimentary breakfast was full of variety and kept fresh - my only critique is that there are not really any non-dairy options for coffee/cereal etc. The cleaning staff were magnificent! So sweet and friendly. They offered our doggos treats too! The room was spacious and stayed nice and cool through the night. The bed was very comfortable. Even during staff changeover, the front desk crew were always so friendly and helpful. The hotel overall is in lovely shape, clean, and accessible. If we ever find ourselves travelling with our dogs, we will be looking for Comfort Inn from now on! Thank you so much, Comfort Inn Charlottetown!
I would give this a one star but everything is relative. PEI is a place where a lot of people come to camp so it is not a land of many five star hotels. We stayed here because Air Canada was supposed to get us in around midnight. But with all the flight changes we arrived at 4 PM. Wow this place needs some TLC! Our cost including tax was 124 Canadian. Here are the acceptable amenities: 1) Free airport pick up- very nice 2) Built in shower ( so no dirty grout) Hot Water and good water pressure. 3) Only a 10 minute walk from coaches sports bar and Grill which was very good. 4) black out curtains 5) extremely quiet during the night At first glance the property is a cute Roadside motel. But when you open the door to the room everything is obviously very, very old. In my opinion the only thing that should be on a hotel bed is everything that can be washed every time a guest leaves. There is a blanket and a bedspread on top of the sheets which I am guessing do not get washed every time a guest leaves.( that is just an assumption.) The bathroom formica sink is coming apart, there are permanent stains around the toilet on the old linoleum floor, the mattress and pillows are uncomfortable and the mattresses is noisy so you will wake up your partner at night getting up. The coffee pot was dirty… Which I cleaned with Lysol wipes but don’t bother because the coffee in the room is more like coffee flavored water. The room appeared to be clean enough but it is depressingly old. If you must stay across the street from the airport for one night it’s fine. Breakfast consists of ham chunks, scrambled eggs, boiled potatoes, various cold cereals, oatmeal which was cold from sitting out in an uncovered dish for hours, orange juice that was actually very good, and coffee served from (also) dirty / stained coffee pots.
