Excellent Stay At The Sonata Inn

A really pretty Victorian style home that has been updated to become a B&B. The room was fairly large, clean, and comfortable. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. The included breakfast was very good.

The Sonata Inn was our home away from home. The property is beautiful, well maintained and walking distance to everything. Chris was super helpful offering recommendations. The breakfast was outstanding and plentiful with hot and cold options. Coffee/tea/juices/home baked good available 24/7. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a lovely stay here. The host was very calm and kind, just delightful. The room was perfect for us and breakfast was great— the welcome cookies and morning banana bread was an especially nice treat. We have already recommended the inn to our family. Especially for the location. It is a quiet neighbourhood but only a five minute walk to downtown or ten minutes to the harbour. For a walk on the boardwalk around Victoria Park is was only a few steps. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay on our last night on PEI!

Great guestc house

This guest house was recommended in a travel blog. It did not disappoint. It is in a great location, the water front/eateries are within an easy walking distance. Our room was spotlessly clean and a great size. The breakfast was good, there is tea & coffee available at all times in the dining room. Juice was also available which was great. Beach towels were available to borrow. The owners are very nice happy people

This property is amazing. Don’t expect your plain Best Western here. The staff go beyond the call to make you feel at home. The house is a beautifully maintained vintage home with loads of charm. Modern amenities like air conditioning are there. We had the big suite on the top floor but they helped with our suitcases so no problem there. They even have beach towels for you to use. I only wish I had booked more days here. Breakfast was always fresh and plentiful. Looking forward to returning to PEI soon and staying here again.
