We enjoyed our stay. The hotel is 100 years old so the walls and floors are thin. It was not a problem for us since we stayed one night but for and extended stay it would be something to consider.

Very nice property with helpful staff and excellent food availability with great south exposure views. No balcony rooms on this almost 200 year old wooden structure. Building is kept in good condition but outside is getting close to requiring a new coat of paint.

The Prince of Wales is one of the grand historic lodges that still exist and whisk you away to a simpler time. If you are looking at staying in a historic property this is the place for you. The Prince of Wales compliments the park perfectly.
