Responsible Choice
A cluster of 20 character-filled homes make up this heritage property. Although it first opened its doors in the mid 1800s, The Great George continues to offer all the modern conveniences and comforts with a healthy dose of tradition.
Rooms are peacefully private, separated into individual houses with separate entrances. The spacious lobby feels more like a lounge with large leather armchairs lit by glowing lamps — a cozy spot to enjoy one of the freshly baked cookies or a drink during the daily complimentary cocktail hour.
Our favorite property on Prince Edward Island, the historic inns epitomize maritime hospitality and comfort, with a touch of luxury. Renovations have managed to blend all the modern conveniences you would expect from a hotel of this standard, while still maintaining the integrity of these charming old buildings.
