Delta Prince Edward ReviewA 10-story hotel overlooking the harbor, the Prince Edward is stocked with business-travel amenities like coffeemakers, hair dryers, very helpful customer service, and cordless phones (in about half the rooms). The very best "deluxe" rooms are furnished in reproduction Georgian-style furniture, and have two-person Jacuzzis; others have more standard oak and beige laminate furnishings. Higher rooms have better views, and there's a premium for water views, but the city views are actually nicer than those -- and you can usually still glimpse the water anyway. The hotel added a new class of apartment-like "Home Suites" in 2009, good for extended stays. Kids seem to enjoy the kiddie wading pool indoors, while adults hang out in an adjacent heated lane pool and hot tub, or work out in a fitness center that has Nordic track machines and even a tanning booth. There's now a new day spa here, as well. The venerable Selkirk restaurant is one of the city's top fine-dining venues, with fancy service and presentation complementing the menu. If that's too rich for your blood, head for the Selkirk Lounge. Raining outside? No worries: This hotel even has a golf simulator. Note that the lowest-priced rooms, however, do not include free high-speed Internet access. Other rooms do. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
