Hotels Near Picton War Memorial in Picton

We just came home from 3 nights and 4 days at this wonderful location. We were celebrating our 55th wedding anniversary and the staff had even left out a little chalkboard congratulating us, along with a lovely piece of chocolate. The suites are absolutely spotless, smell so lovely and talk about luxurious! Bed and pillows very comfortable, lovely big shower and plenty of wardrobe and storage space. Staff members we were fortunate to meet were very friendly. Michael seems a very nice guy (have only spoken to him on the phone) obviously a terrific business man with these great suites in mind. Great little details in the hallway. A Polaroid camera to take a picture leave a memory and write in the album, a couple of games on the hall tables. These suites are within walking distance to shops, restaurants and harbour and a very short drive to Lake on the Mountain. You even have a cafe right downstairs. We will definitely be back!

An interesting and historical building to stay in, conveniently located just off the Main St (which was great, because it was close enough to walk, but avoided the downtown noise/congestion). The concierge was outstanding! Friendly, helpful and happy to bring you a cup of tea if you needed. The included breakfast was 5 stars! It felt like a high class brunch. We had a wonderful stay.

We visited the Canoe museum earlier in the day and booked the Waring House for the evening. The Inn is a little dated. The food there is delicious. We had lunch at the Barley Room. It was hamburger day so we had 2 of their burgers. Juicy and full of flavour. I eventually had to use a knife and fork. It was too big. The evening passed uneventful and we had a full breakfast the next day. It was a made to order for each person. I had an omelette and my husband had the hash. It was so filling we didn’t eat again until close to dinner. The problem occurred when we got home. We realized that there was a charge of $375 from the Waring House that we did not charge. When we called,we were told that it was due to the fact that we booked through a on line third party and it was their charge and we had to go to them to have it removed. It clearly stated on the on line statement that it was the Waring House that charged it. We even went through their accounting department. We were told it was flagged as an on line booking so it was not them. We spent 3 days calling the bank regarding the charge as well as the on-line booking company. They told us they only charged us for the original booking and the $375 was not put on our account by them. We finally got Waring House account to look again. I booked the room with my Visa card and paid for lunch as well. My husband used his Mastercard to pay the incidental charges. How did the on line booking company get his Mastercard number. He has never used it with them. After searching their records the Waring House had to admit they made a mistake and charge another customer’s room to our card. They were very sorry and will reverse them. We are sorry too. 3 days and hours on the phone to get to what happened. It is obvious that the Waring House does not have their accounting regarding guest in order. Not willing to go through that again!

Resort was spectacular! Rooms were spotless and roomy, top line appliances, great sitting area outside of cabins. We had brunch in the restaurant on Saturday, service and food quality was amazing. Check-in and check-out was very easy. Service from beach bar excellent. All staff were friendly and always said ”Hi” to us all. Pool area spacious and clean. Mel was great to deal with, always knew our name. Look forward to coming back!
