We had such a lovey stay at Dawson house! Donna is very thoughtful and sweet, she is very welcoming, provided an excellent restaurant recommendation and made a delicious breakfast. We liked the room decor and the bed. The bed sheets were very comfy. The Dawson house has a sunning decor inside! It is kept very well. Don’t forget to try the pumpkin loaf!!

This is a lovely house, in a nice part of Charlottetown. Donna, the owner is a gracious host, and the breakfasts she provided were fabulous. The rooms are very nicely decorated, but our bed, while comfortable was very bouncy. You couldn't rollover without disturbing your partner. The bathroom was functional, but could use a bit of a makeover. It was a big step into the shower tub. Charlottetown is grossly overpriced, but given that, Dawson House while no bargain, is fairly priced.

Owner friendliness, cleanliness and a great breakfast made our stay pleasant. Our 3rd floor room size was cozy and the stairs were a little slippery.

Bed and Breakfast in Charlottetown,PEI.
Our stay was wonderful. Donna was a kind,caring,knowledgeable host. She made you feel so comfortable in her home. The home was beautiful. The grounds were so nice for sitting . The beds are so comfortable. Breakfast was amazing each day. It is a short 15 minute walk into town. The area is very pretty. Coffee,tea,water available each day. She also has something sweet for nibbling. I definitely would recommend this bed and breakfast in Charlottetown, PEI.

Donna was a superb hostess, and treated her guest like royalty. She provided us with a sense of calming energy during our stay. The entire property was exquisitely maintained, and we had the good fortune of sharing breakfast with two ladies from the Boston area, where conversation and laughs were encouraged. We cannot praise this B&B highly enough, as we did not want to leave. We will be back again - no question.

A get a way @ the Dawson House is a gift to yourself We enjoyed a 2 night stay in Captains Room and were delighted w the attention to detail, the close proximity to downtown and other points of interest. The breakfast was not to be missed both delicious and beautifully presented The innkeeper was wonderful and quickly responded to any needs. We feel as though we made a friend and plan to return
