We are currently staying at this hotel for the weekend and are disappointed. We discovered this picturesque hotel last fall when we stopped for lunch here on our way to the Maritimes. There are many different room types and prices. You probably won't know what you are getting until you get here. Many face the water, but some units have a blocked view. Some units have a fridge and MW, the same unit next door may not. In September we are paying $300/ night for a standard king unit. Rooms have been modernized and are comfortable. Breakfast was good and included. Front desk staff are friendly and helpful. On our 2 night stay we asked to have our room cleaned, but only got new towels. Nice place with potential, but disappointing. That is probably why it appears that fewer than a dozen rooms are occupied this weekend.

This was our second experience here, albeit 8 years in between visits and of all the places we've stayed at across Canada, this is our absolute favorite. My wife commented that walking through the Inn was like visiting a museum with each room having a different feel and staging. Both John and Steve (owners) and their team are FANTASTIC!! Yes, caps are required when stating this and once you stay, you'll ”get it”. Their attention to the smallest of details made our time there perfect. Whether it was a quick-witted banter or a simple smile when passing by, you feel welcomed and valued. This doesn't even cover the outstanding dinner service in their restaurant and the generous breakfast served in a nifty cooler in the morning or the comfortable feel of the back patio on a sunny afternoon. Moreover, the visit was identical in feel to our original one which made writing this review so easy. Legit, after 8 years when you give your guests the same ”feel”, you are clearly doing something right! With hotel chain prices being off the charts, The Woodview Inn was a genuine value.

Our recent overnight stay at Pangea House could not have been any better! Jody and Geoff have done a fabulous job of mixing the old with the new in this beautiful home! The home has many antiques and beautiful old items but nothing was lacking in terms of comfort for guests. It had a light and airy feeling. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was outstanding including a wonderful gluten-free breakfast for me which was no problem for Geoff! The home is in a great location near the river, very close to the downtown area, and Jody and Geoff could not have been any more welcoming and helpful. We highly recommend the Pangea House and hope to be able to stay there again!

The Bullock House has a great location within easy walking distance of downtown Gananoque. We stayed in the Gananoque Room. It is an older house and hasn't been well maintained. Just because a room is filled with ”antiques” doesn't mean the room has to be worn out. Breakfast was ok, but nothing great. Blue oatmeal that was cooked in coconut oil was overly sweet and lacked the earthy simplicity of good oatmeal. The french toast was also overly sweet. We had an enjoyable conversation with the other guests during breakfast. Owner was generally pleasant, but we got a slight scolding for bring coffee downstairs in the morning. Prior to breakfast we had made coffee using the capsule coffee machine provided by the B&B in the upstairs vestibule. That coffee was good and we hadn't finished it. Not wanting to throw it away, we carried it into breakfast. The owner was a bit miffed that we did this, it somehow upset her vision of proper decorum for a ”formal” breakfast. We like the town and the Thousand Islands, but we wouldn't stay in the Bullock House again.

The room is large, very clean, and the price is very reasonable. There is coffee and chocolate milk in the reception area. There is breakfast in the morning. It is less than 10 minutes away from the city. There are two supermarkets for shopping in 3 minutes.

Queen Cottage was so very dark with insufficient lighting, giving it a gloomy drab feel. In contrast to the front rooms that have been recently renovated, the cottage needs renovating. The water in the bathroom was barely warm. When I phoned reception to report this, I was told to let the water run long enough to get it hot. When I told them I had done this already for 15 minutes and it was still only just warm, they then said there is nothing they can do. So no hot water. When we first moved in there were several mosquitoes in the room. The Cottage was quiet as it is at the back of the property away from the road. It was also handy to park our car right beside the cottage. The breakfast included was a good portion of scrambled eggs on toast. Having the cooked breakfast was very welcome rather than just the usual continental.

The staff was amazing - super friendly and very accommodating. We booked 3 rooms which were all very clean and comfortable. The pool area was very relaxing with several picnic tables available as well. There were a lot of options to walk to for dinner. Breakfast had a really good selection and the eggs and sausages were hot. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Ganonoque!

We had good memories of this Holiday Inn Express a few years ago but now on a recent visit we were underwhelmed. Our recent 2023 experience: 1) The elderly person who met us at the check-in counter didn't bother to stand up, stop what she was doing in order to greet us. That didn't make us feel like ”guests”. We were simply asked for our credit card and charged for our stay. 2) The general reception area was plain and uninviting (it could use some color). 3) We opted for a suite room and this is what we noticed during our stay: a) - the sit down desk is scratched up and needs to be refinished b) - dust was all over the base of the lamp and one of the bulbs kept flickering c) - the fireplace remote wouldn't work (battery?) d) - the sofa is shot, uncomfortable and should be replaced. e) - Various nicks and scrtches on the furniture. f) - the bed was comfortable g) - the TV needs to be reprogramed into english and the TSN5 feed fixed so it actually works right h) There were no restaurant guides or similar items in the drawers for ”guests” to familiarize themselves with the local fare or attractions. The overall impression we were left with is that they cheaped out on keeping their hotel up to a standard paying guests deserve and expect. Too bad. Next time we will choose differently.
