Hotels in Charlottetown
If you’re traveling on a tight budget, there are a number of moderately priced motels situated along the main access roads running into and out of town (namely, rtes. 1 and 2), and also out by the airport. These places are generally basic and clean but with few frills. The university also provides inexpensive rooms, and it comes with the added bonus of providing brand-new units as well as free access to an extensive sports complex.

The Great George
From the outside, the Great George looks more like a string of well-kept heritage homes than the boutique hotel it is.
