The Elmwood is an enchanting place to rest our vacation weary bodies. The Violet, the owner, was very accomodating to our ask for an extention to our stay. Both of the rooms we stayed in were very beautiful and full of memories of a past life with past occupants of the Inn. This is definitely a place I would recommend to anyone visiting the Charlottetown area

The house is a heritage property built in 1889 that has been well maintained and has wonderful antique furnishings. The breakfasts were delicious and varied over our one week stay. Access to downtown is convenient and walkable as is the boardwalk along the ocean. The owners and staff were very friendly and accommodating.

It was a beautiful old house with antique furnishings. Lots of nice decorations and little touches that made for a great experience. We had a bedroom and sitting room which we thoroughly enjoyed.However, you may have to go up one or two floors to your room with no elevator. I did notice anyone offering to carry your bags

One of the most elegant and carefully considered B&B's we have ever stayed at. Beautifully adorned throughout with perfect touches and stunning original designs, we couldn't believe our luck to have been able to stay for not one, but two nights. This property has been well maintained, is welcoming (especially when you return at night -- I won't spoil the lit-up surprise!), and the breakfast in the morning was wonderful. I did miss the tiny extras offered at other B&B's (an evening snack/treat, for example) and this can be hard to find if you aren't looking carefully (it's set back from the road by a sign that is easy to miss, especially in the dark), but once you're there, you are a welcome guest and treated with terrific care.

Check in was awesome and very accommodating as we were late. The inn was very clean and everyone was friendly. The bed is important to us and we felt that it was old and needed to be update. Also the tv was small and the audio was not clear. A minor detail but if you want to just chill in your room it’s a bit frustrating. We were on the third floor so just a note that there isvno elevator and the stairs a steep. Overall a pleasant stay and would consider staying here again.
