Very friendly and accommodating host provided great information for places to eat in Charlottetown and suggestions for things to do and see in the area. Loved the family style breakfast table.
The b&b is amazing. It’s an upscale B&B in an authentic Victorian house with a great host! The host welcomed us very professionally and gave us excellent restaurants recommendations! She also prepared freshly prepared breakfast , which as a great opportunity to mingle with other visitors.
We had a wonderful stay! The property was spotless, comfortable, and ideally located close to downtown—making it easy to explore the area. Donna was a fantastic host—warm, welcoming, and full of great local tips. We felt right at home and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!
Clean and comfortable vintage B&B that’s walkable to the historic downtown. Hostess Donna, was extremely friendly and helpful! Complimentary breakfast was wonderful. Would recommend.
Breakfast was home made and served with elegance. Our hostess, Donna, was wonderful and very knowledgeable of places to visit. Bed was comfortable, internet access was secure and we had our own transportation but most of the downtown is walkable if you are able. We would certainly recommend the Dawson House as a go to place to stay.

The house retains its unique charm and style.
It is definitely a place to experience when visiting the area.
It was an unbelievable property! Our room was to die for… Donna is one of the best hostesses you could ask for… breakfasts were unbelievable! I can’t say enough about the property or the accommodations! I would recommend to anyone going to Charlottetown!
Delightful 1800s home, roomy and comfortable room, bed, etc. Good location in Charlottetown, close to the city center while also easily accessible from the countryside. Charming host who shared numerous good recommendations of things to see and places to eat. Delicious breakfasts. Highly recommended, we will be back
We had a lovely stay at this historic B&B. The house is very well-maintained and modern, the innkeeper engaging without being overbearing. It is about a half mile walk to town or a 5 min car ride.
The house itself is beautiful. We especially enjoyed the private balcony adjoining our room. Our host Donna made our stay enjoyable with her tour recommendations, her delicious breakfasts and the friendly atmosphere that she created.
Beautiful house full of antiques. Well appointed bedrooms with all the comforts you could want. A very gracious and friendly host. She made us feel so comfortable. Helpful suggestions on where to tour on the island. Breakfasts were amazing - even accommodating special requests for my daughter. Highly recommend.
