Absolutely beautiful property. Lovely, lovely staff and a very comfortable room. The only thing letting it down was the food in the restaurant but staff were excellent. Definitely going to stay again.
Wonderful and relaxing stay! We enjoyed the historic ambiance of the inn. It was quiet, peaceful and a great way to recharge. There are so many fun amenities and the food at the restaurant was delicious. Definitely happy we chose to spend a night there!
We had a lovely 2 night stay at Dalvay. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We especially enjoyed cozy evenings around one of the 3 fireplaces. Terrific spot for a very relaxing getaway.
Beautiful location with so much history. Very much enjoyed sitting by the fire place on a chilly evening, playing board games as a family. Nice to have live music also.
Staff was friendly and helpful.
Loved that it was a historic property in a national park. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the food was excellent. We would highly recommend staying here.
Our stay at the Dalvay was fantastic. The hotel is beautiful and the staff was so friendly and accomodating. The restaurant was equally as good and I highly recommend trying the chicken dinner and chowder. The hotel grounds were so peaceful. I highly recommend this hotel.
Hotel was amazing, the rooms were so beautiful. The only critique is the bathrooms in the room. There is only a pedestal sink so nowhere to put anything and the shower had a curtain around the whole tub and it would stick to you when showering and there was nowhere in the tub to put anything not an ideal shower situation would be nice if the bathrooms were a little more updated. But other than that the whole experience at the hotel was amazing!
Really fun staying in a historic mansion. The rooms and facilities were in great shape. The staff were really pleasant and friendly. Would definitely stay here next time we are in PEI

We loved this Inn! Impeccable staff, grand interior, lovely food/dining. We enjoyed having coffee in the library in the morning and reading before breakfast. A wonderful stay! My only minor note is that in the upstairs wing where we stayed, the walls are pretty thin so you can hear others.
