For the most part I really enjoyed my stay. The beds and rooms were clean. I did find my bed to be super hard so I ended up having to sleep on the couch for the duration. The area around the hotel was iffy, but that's out of the hotels control. There was a very loud disturbance my second night there at around 3am where it sounded like another guest was getting evicted. I understand that's probably a one off and not a common occurrence but to do it in the middle of the night was a little strange. That other person was not going quietly.

The view from the room was beautiful, the beds were comfortable, the suite quite large. The hotel is old, and although some upgrades have been made, it is tired looking. It seems that the hotel is used for regular accommodation for the less fortunate.

The building is gorgeous and the staff is very nice. But the area around the build is a little sketchy and the food in the hotel was not good at all.

I just had a great stay at the Prince Arthur! Is the hotel older? Yes but it has tons of character. Are there odd people hanging around outside? Yes, but security is there and I was never bothered by any of them. The staff were friendly and greeted myself and my dog like long lost friends. The waterfront area across from the hotel is beautiful and very walkable. The room was nice, clean and the bed was very comfortable. All in all, a great stay.

Waterfront view was a plus-but the first person I met at the front desk (Marcie) was rude and not helpful-even the next day when I asked about a coffee shop close by-she said there was nothing yet I found a lovely place 2 blocks away. The construction didn’t help but that’s not their fault.

There is so much history here. Rooms were updated, spacious and clean. Some street construction going on, so be creative when you get close. We walked around outside in the evening, down to the marina, skate park and park. Lots of people around of all types, but felt safe. Good lemonade and ice cream. We paid more for the harbor view, and it was worth it. Loved the sunrise over the sleeping giant.

We checked in and police were in the parking lot , not a good first impression. Constant noise from the parking lot, police again, train going by in wee hrs of morning, old blg needs update. The waterfront is beautiful BUT the hotel and people in the area made us feel uncomfortable and unsafe on what was our first vacation together. Would not recommend this hotel.
