Everything about the McGee Inn was perfect. It is a beautiful house furnished in period style. The staff was very accommodating and they thought of everything. Our room had big windows and the temperature during some very cold days was very comfortable. Breakfast was divine and very soothing classical music was played while we ate. The Inn is close to the Rideau Canal and walking distance to everything else we wanted to see and do. We had a working FIREPLACE in our spacious bedroom and the staff furnished us with a duraflame log to burn each night. My husband and I had a fabulous stay and wished we could have stayed longer. I was amazed at the affordable price considering the level of comfort and service. We would love to visit again!

Nice little inn with parking available. Very good breakfast and friendly staff. Room is comfortable. Coffee/tea station available for guests. Loved that the bed had a blanket and quits --- instead of the ubiquitous too-hot duvet! Would like a squishier pillow though, but that's a personal preference.

Lovely heritage venue. A bit loud outside after dark. Third floor room 22 with enclosed balcony was nice (it’s also the fire escape for the entire floor). A little unusual having the washroom outside the bedroom, but you know that when you book. Delicious breakfast, very cool interior in the hallways and the rooms!
