Perfect location
The Charles is perfectly located for exploring Niagara-on-the-Lake, and by being at the end of the shopping area it avoids having the tourist crowds.
All the Staff were wonderful: helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Special call-out to the breakfast staff who were exceptional.
The food at Breakfast (omelette- wow) and fine-dining in The Hobnob was also exceptional.
The building is charming and beautiful, but looking tired with flaking paint and wobbly paving. Although there are terrace areas, the furniture is old, dusty and tatty- so it does not encourage you to sit down. Hot water for a shower can take up to 5 minutes running to become hot through the old plumbing ( yes I timed it!)
As a sign of neglect, one of the trees partly collapsed whilst we were in our bedroom and luckily it fell away from our window and came down blocking the side road - this was quickly cut up and removed to reopen the road, but it could have been tragic it if fell down on our room or on top of cars in the car park or road. I hope the remove the remaining part of the tree as it was hollowed out by beetles. Several other trees also showed major insect damage and die-back… future trouble.
Overall, it is highly recommended inspite of the lack of maintenance.
