Red sand and Green Gables
Review of General: Prince Edward Island (Canada) by
JVL
Advantages: Fabulous scenery, relaxed lifestyle, friendly atmosphere
Disadvantages: Only way to see the island is to hire a car
Prince Edward Island (PEI) is an oasis of peace and tranquillity nestling just off the northern shore of Nova Scotia; it is also the smallest of Canada's provinces, but the 130,000 or so resident Islanders are justifiably proud of their home. It is with g ...

Bouncy beds in Kamloops
Review of The Thompson Hotel and Conference Centre, Kamloops by
jo145
Advantages: Good hotel and conference centre in downtown Kamloops
Disadvantages: None
Picture the gold rush in 1860, and later the arrival of the Canadian Pacific railway and you can understand why Kamloops in British Columbia, at the confluence of two branches of the Thompson River became an important city. It has over 92,000 residents an ...

A motel not a hotel!
Review of Mount Robson Inn, Jasper, Alberta, Canada by

Advantages: Different rooms and suites available
Disadvantages: Only restaurant to meet up with other people

I had to cook my own breakfast!
Review of High Country Inn by
jo145
Advantages: Inn in downtown Banff.
Disadvantages: Breakfast was disappointing and luggage left for guests to deal with.

Quick review of Niagara Falls (Canada)
Review of Niagara Falls (Canada) by
hartley2
Have just come back from visiting Canada for 5 weeks. We hired a car and toured staying in Hotels and B&Bs. We loved it. Our first stop after Toronto was Niagara Falls. It was spectacular. The Maid of the Mist boat trip was excellent value for money. The town itself is a bit tacky. We stayed at the Country Inn and Suites, only opened last May. It was very good value for money, and would recommend it.

A Winter Wonder
Review of Niagara Falls (Canada) by
mackry
Advantages: A fun filled day that packs loads in
Disadvantages: Shabby customer service from the helicopter company
Visiting Niagara Falls for the first time evokes dreams that have been instilled upon the conscience. Whether you have been told tales or seen shots in Hollywood movies, it is a tourist attraction that everybody has some knowledge of.
