The trip to Wolfe Island on the ferry is always lovely, and the island itself is worth a visit. But our stay here was less than ideal. If you know what you're getting into--a basic motel--then no problem. The "decor" is bland, there was a faint musty smell, the doors had to be pushed hard, possibly because they weren't adjusted...

Just got the Trip Advisor app and my wife and I are reminiscing about our romantic weekend we had last Fall at The General Wolfe Hotel. We took the ferry over and were immediately greeted by the friendly staff. The first night we checked in we headed straight to the restaurant. The food was excellent and the dining experience was...

I read most of the reviews. I guess we all have our own experience. I just wanted to cross the frozen river with the ferry, stay there for a night, but the hotel is closed for the winter, and the river wasn't frozen over yet... However, when I was there late September when the leaves were truning I had ok... More

I made a reservation over the phone a couple of weeks before. When we arrived shortly after 9:30pm, everything was closed up. So, I called from outside and the man who answered denied that I had a reservation and hung up on me. He called me back a few minutes later, while I was on the other line trying to... More

This place is similar to the Bates Motel! Seriously, never stay there and don't eat there.. they charged me for 2 days I didn't stay there because there is a 48 hour cancellation policy of some sort. The beds etc are old ... the towels are what one would expect from a cheap place and it's not cheap. Go anywhere... More

This hotel / restaurant has a ton of potential, but not with the current owner and staff. From the minute we got into the place we received a negative attitude. It was noon and we asked if they still served breakfast, the female behind the bar (where you check in) said very rudely, “The only place to get breakfast at... More

Loved everything about it. The food was especially superior to anything else on the island. The view was great and the room nice and quiet.

This is just a great family run hotel in a great location in the Village of Wolfe Island. Everything was just perfect and we are looking forward to go back ASAP.

Very upscale! In room,food, amenities and ambience, definitely not for the Cheapo KFC crowd. My wife and I stayed 2 nights and got the $200. per day package which included full poached eggs, bacon, sausage toast coffee and dinners that was the best we've had in Canada for years. Mahi-mahi one night and delicious steak the next.
