Overview

As the newest hotel in Charlottetown in nearly 30 years, the Holman Grand, which opened in 2011, offers sleek, European designs, geothermal heating and power in each guestroom and a seven-story atrium that every guestroom opens out to in the hallway. The glass railings surrounding the atrium on each floor allow a flood of light into the hallways from the ceiling skylight. At the bottom of the atrium, guests will find a common area with a fireplace, TV, couches and a business center.

The pet-friendly hotel features an indoor pool and high-end championship putting and chipping green inside the hotel. With direct interior access to the Confederation Centre of the Arts and the Charlottetown Mall, families do not have to venture outside to find entertainment (though they certainly should). The onsite restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and numerous restaurants and shops are within walking distance in downtown Charlottetown.

Reviews

Incredible Lobby and atrium

by Bhartlen

A very nice upscale looking hotel. The rooms are large and the beds are comfortable. The lobby has a very modern look and when you step out of the elevator on the room floors, there’s an incredible atrium that goes through all the levels in the center of the hotel.

You’re in a great location for food and entertainment with the Art museum across the street, lots of food and craft beer in the area and ample shopping.

Definitely a repeat customer.

Holman Grand Hotel was...Grand ????

by S M

I stayed in a room with 1 king bed. It was clean and comfortable. I enjoyed the Aveeda toiletries and the fact that the room had no carpet was a pleasant surprise! The hotel is very clean and well-kept, and the staff I dealt with were wonderful.

All About Golf
It's all about golf at the Holman Grand! Families will find an impressive, championship putting and chipping green inside the hotel. Families will love the high-end mini golf and they can also find a golf simulator, too. Several "real" golf course can also be found only a short drive away from the hotel as well.
