Hotel Charlottetown, hotel in Charlottetown, Canada
Hotel Charlottetown is a five-story building with more than a hundred rooms, including several suites, located on Kent Street in downtown Charlottetown. The property features Chambers Restaurant & Bar, where guests enjoy meals in a casual setting.
The hotel was built in 1931 following a fire that destroyed another major hotel two years earlier, with local business leaders enlisting Canadian National Railway's support. After changing hands several times over the decades, it underwent major renovation in 1999 and was renamed Rodd Charlottetown.
The hotel has served as a gathering place for travelers and townspeople since its opening, becoming a symbol of the city's hospitality and growth. This role remains visible today in how locals and visitors alike regard it as part of Charlottetown's identity.
The hotel sits in the downtown area and offers direct access to shops, cafes, and historic sites around the city. Visitors can easily walk to nearby attractions like the Confederation Centre of the Arts and Victoria Row from this convenient location.
The hotel welcomed Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip in 1973 during celebrations marking Prince Edward Island's 100th anniversary of joining Canada. This royal visit remains a distinctive moment in the property's history and local memory.
