 From
the moment that you walk through the door, you will know
that this historic Inn is truly a special place. Built
in 1832 by Charles Richardson, a member of Parliament
for Niagara, this luxurious, completely refurbished Inn
still retains its inherent dignity and elegance while
exuding a friendly intimacy. Each of the
twelve guestrooms has been beautifully decorated and is
unique in size, décor and amenities. Many of the rooms
have wood burning or gas fireplaces; glass enclosed
rain-head showers or jet-air tubs and private verandahs
to enjoy the view of Lake Ontario, the golf course or
our main street. A luxurious sleep is assured in our
feather top beds with down duvets, down pillows and 300
count Egyptian cotton linens.
One of Niagara’s top rated restaurants,
the Charles Inn dining room has received positive
reviews in “Where to Eat in Canada”, “Wine Spectator”
magazine, “Gourmet” and “Toronto Life.” Award winning
Executive Chef William Brunyansky offers a culinary
style that is French Contemporary infused with an
appreciation for the bounty of Niagara.
Whether your plans include a desire for
beautifully appointed rooms, extraordinary cuisine and
wines, world class theatre, relaxing spa services, or
just a need to unwind; expect a memorable experience.
Recently refurbished, each of our twelve guestrooms has
been beautifully decorated and is unique in size, décor and
amenities. You will feel perfectly relaxed and will be impressed
by the Inn's immaculate attention to detail, exquisite taste and
style. Many of the rooms have wood burning or gas fireplaces;
glass enclosed multi-head showers or whirlpool or claw foot tubs
and private verandahs to enjoy the view of the golf course, main
street or Lake Ontario. Each feathertop bed promises a luxurious sleep in
300 count linens, down duvets and down pillows.
The
dining room is located in the old parlour and still
features its original crystal chandeliers. The room is now
painted a warm persimmon colour and offers comfortable
upholstered banquettes and wing back chairs along with the more
traditional dining chair. Whether taking afternoon tea and
scones or savouring a multi-course meal prepared under the
culinary direction of Chef William Brunyansky, dining at The
Charles is always special. Our wine list features the best that
Niagara has to offer including a wonderful selection of ice
wines to accompany that special dessert. During the warmer
months, a candle lit dinner can be enjoyed on the side verandah
which overlooks the gardens and the golf course. After dinner,
guests are welcome to enjoy a glass of port or ice wine or
perhaps a specialty coffee in the adjoining lounge or sit on the
verandah to enjoy the evening sky. The dining room is open seven
days a week.
