“A quiet retreat with excellent food and service”

Reviewed May 23, 2013 NEW

We have been visiting Niagara on the Lake each Spring for over thirty years and have stayed in many local hotels and some B&Bs. The Charles Inn has been our stay of choice for the past few years, drawn by the excellent dining - an always sumptuous dinner and a not to be missed breakfast. Just a couple of blocks... More

“Unique and Special Hotel”

Reviewed May 14, 2013

We stayed the 20-21 April 2013 and were pleasantly surprised. The building is old, but beautifully cared for, and the bar served one of the best meals I have had in a long time. The staff were unobtrusive but available. The hotel is at one end of Niagara On the Lake but easy to walk to entire area.

“Elegantly comfortable”

Reviewed May 5, 2013

Built in the early 1800's The Charles Inn is charming with a lovely curb appeal. The gardens were blooming with spring flowers, forgot to take a picture. Parking is on the side of the building but is limited. You can park on the street for free after 6:00pm. We stayed in the Daisy room, which was clean, good size bathroom... More

“Disappointing Experience”

Reviewed May 1, 2013

We stayed at the Charles Inn for one night last summer while attending a performance at the Shaw Festival. Although we are not fussy travellers, we were very disappointed with the quality of the Inn, especially given the price of the rooms and the favourable reviews on this site. Good points first - the location of the Inn cannot be... More

Dear Valued Guest, We truly appreciate your candid feedback as this is what helps make improvements for our future guests. I regret that we did not meet your expectations and that your room was not as bright and fresh as you were hoping. The Inn does have several different room types and some have more natural light than others. All... More
