We just loved our stay in October 2011 at the Fairholm, we stayed 4 nights in the Brecken (more rustic styled with wooden beams and brick) and we liked it so much we decided to stay an extra night, and they had the Elmslie (Older style lace curtains, floral wall paper ect)open so we stayed another night in that room...the...

Thanks for your detailed review! The Brecken Suite is perfect for honeymooners; it's very private and quiet and you have the whole third floor to yourselves. We're so glad you had a great stay at Fairholm and hope you'll be able to return someday to celebrate an anniversary with us! More

We stayed at the Inn during the time we were on the island for our daughter's wedding in Aug/2011. Our entire family stayed with us. What a wonderful place! The food was wonderful, hot fresh cookies every afternoon, fresh muffins await you while you place your order for breakfast. The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and immaculate. They are equipped with... More

This was my "splurge" on our two week vacation, as we booked 3 nights here, at about $300 a night. It was worth it! Our room was spacious, stylish, comfortable and QUIET. We stayed in the Emslie room, which is sort of tucked away all by itself. We didn't hear any other guests, and felt like we had lots of... More

Thanks for taking the time to write a review of your stay with us! We really appreciate your kind comments and are very glad that you had a great visit to PEI. We are planning on purchasing new pillow-top mattresses later this fall and will most likely top those off with some high thread count sheets for an unbelievably comfortable... More

We usually don't participate in writing reviews but were shocked to read some of the earlier comments. My wife and I have traveled extensively and have stayed at many B&Bs and five star hotels. I can't account for what may have existed in 2007 or 2008 but in July 2011 we found this to be one of the finest inns... More

The Inn was indeed very nice, breakfast was great as was the location. Staff were very friendly. We had the Brecken Suite on the third floor which although very nice was definitely not 5* material and therefore over priced. I think a 4* rating for this suite would be much more appropiate and around $200/night a fair price rather than... More

Thank you, PeterDCanada, for taking time to write a review of your stay with us. I appreciate your kind comments about our staff and breakfasts but am sorry to hear that your experience was not what you expected from a five-star establishment. The Brecken Suite features a lovely deep two-person Jacuzzi tub that you were very much looking forward to... More

My husband and I stayed at the Fairholm National Historic Inn for our honeymoon and just fell in love with it, we even extended our planned 3 night stay to 5 nights! It's a beautiful building with so much charm and elegance. It is a very old building with gorgeous antique furniture in every room, it is so well kept,... More

While in Charlottetown on business, I recently stayed at the Fairholm National Historic Inn. This was not my first visit to this establishment, and once again I was thoroughly impressed with the service provided and the quality of my room. There was even a gas stove to further enhance the cozy environment. The innkeeper, Erin, was extremely attentive to my... More

Fairholm National Historic Inn is a beautifully restored and maintained historic home in Charlottetown. Each room has it's own unique character and appointments. So many nice touches that it is hard to remember them all. We were upgraded to a large king suite on the second floor that was just lovely and quite spacious. There is a small sitting area... More
