"You’ll likely have to fly home through Charlottetown, PEI’s historic capital. Its Greek revival, Queen Anne, and Gothic revival architecture is striking against a snowy backdrop, so build in a night or two at the Great George Hotel, a collection of heritage buildings downtown with guest rooms accented with colors ranging from purple to sage. In winter, it looks like the star of a classic holiday story, with the Romanesque revival City Hall, the Gothic drama of St. Dunstan’s Basilica, and the circa 1863 Italianate Union Bank building. Great George Hotel from $140" - Michael Kaminer
