Charlottetown PEI: a small city that offers a lot.

5.00This is truly a great (but small) city with surprisingly good restaurants (due to the local culinary school), affordable rates for lodging, food, etc... and a proximity to amazing beaches, picturesque countrysides, and general sightseeing.
Colourful Christmas fun in Charlottetown.

5.00Visiting Charlottetown for business with time to take in their downtown Christmas activity. It was good small town fun. Was not aware that Founders Hall vendors were open. Great food offerings. Stayed at Delta Prince Edward. No activity on the harbour so no reason to pay extra for room view that is just outside the hotel front door.
Good overall tour of the city
