Old time's charm - with all the pros and cons

The most important to know: this hotel is dispersed in many old buildings around the main building. Since it is in the old part of the town they do not have enough parking spaces, you must arrive relatively early in the afternoon to have one of the "complementary" ones (2 nights street parking, one night off street parking close to our building for us). Because these are old buildings, there is no central A/C. Our room had an A/C which vented through the window and was quite noisy. The great breakfast you read about is in the main building, self-serve from a decent selection of hot and cold items offered in the "lobby extension" which is a part of the lobby, arm chairs and quite low coffee and cocktail tables. If your room is in one of the other buildings you must come to the main building (our room was in the main building) for breakfast. The location of the Great George "complex" is good, close to restaurants, shops and an easy walk to the water front. If you set your expectations to the right level you can have a good time here, but you are definitely stepping back in time!

We stayed at this hotel last year and had a pleasant experience. This year felt different, the staff were absolutely amazing! Helpful and kind in every way. They even took note of a birthday celebration and had a bottle of wine in the room which goes to show how far they go for guests. The room we had was the same as before but attention to detail is not within the rooms. The carpet is really showing its age and I hope is clean but did not look it. It was ripped up in quite a few spots and extremely brown, our bedding had a few stains in many spots but did look washed so I let it go. The shower had rust spots in the corner, the pink colour that needs a little scrub. The TV unit thing was just sort of falling down behind the TV, many stains on furniture, pictures and mirrors uneven. It’s a nice hotel but when you pay $465 for a night I expected a bit more in terms of cleanliness. The parking is absolutely the largest downfall as well of course staying in the downtown core, thankfully we saw the hotel employee leaving for the night and he advised he can take the valet spot but this happened to us both times we have stayed. The breakfast is not bad it is cute and small. The best part is really the hot coffee & tea and sweets. It’s the small details when staying in a room that truly matter and it fell a bit short this time.

Upon arrival, we realized that the elevator would not service the assigned room, when we expressed our concern, the staff quickly consulted with the manager and arranged a more suitable room. The hotel was completely booked so the staff went over and above to help solve our problem and we were very grateful.

We enjoy the location.We Have stayed many times but oddly that is never acknowledged. The front desk staff varies greatly in personality and helpfulness. There was one young man, Sam, who didn’t check us in, but we saw with many clients and he was so friendly and helpful. The breakfast staff is always wonderful as are cleaning staff. We had a nice king room in the main building. There was no vanity kit in bathroom and the keurig didn’t work. Didn’t complain but did tell woman at checkout about the coffee maker as it should be replaced. Loved the pillows. Bed was ok but sagged in the middle. AC is good though slightly loud. Fridge is great to have. There was no concierge on a busy July weekend. we heard many Guests ask the front desk about the island and that to do. No one could help them … they need to staff islanders or people who know how to help tourists! I did give some people restaurant recommendations and scenic drives. I felt bad for the folks who got in their cars and drove with no idea what PEI has to offer. Not acceptable. We forgot to take DND sign off door second day so didn’t get cleaning. Was ok with us. But when I checked out, asked about the gift cert or $10 credit and woman said “you got a gift certificate”. Wow. No. We didn’t. We also ate at Murphy restaurants 3 times and would have used it. She had to “check with her colleague”. So insulting.It’s $10 and we spent over $1100 to stay there for 3 nights. It was not about the $.
