When is the best time to go to Melville Cove?

The best time to visit Melville Cove is during the summer months, from June to September, when the weather is at its finest for outdoor activities and exploring the coast. During this period, you can expect long, sunny days and comfortable temperatures, superb for enjoying the beaches, hiking trails, and boat tours. The ocean is also warmer, making activities like swimming and kayaking more pleasant. This is an ideal time for couples looking for a relaxing coastal escape or families wanting to make the most of the natural beauty. The shoulder seasons of May and October also offer a lovely experience with fewer crowds and often pleasant weather, though it can be a bit cooler.

The roof top patio area was lovely. Fantastic breakfast. Look forward to return next summer. 10/10 property. We thank you❤️"

The Barrington Hotel

8/10 Good

"The good: Very comfortable bed and very clean bathtub. Convenient location to walk to the Citadel or the waterfront. Conveniently attached to the Tempo restaurant and Boston Pizza. Not so good: the place badly needs maintenance and a facelift. In our room the curtain valance was detached in one place, wallpaper was torn in several places, and the A/C ceiling vent dripped water."

Prince George Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"An excellent hotel located below The Citadel, with a superior attached restaurant Gio. Food was imaginative, as were the drinks, and the staff excellent. Our king room was well appointed, with plenty of room and two armchairs. We enjoyed the ala carte breakfast, happy hour, and dinner at Gio. The housekeeping staff were top notch too. Location is walkable to the waterfront, and a somewhat longer but pleasant walk to the terrific Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21. Parking in the basement of the hotel is fine for a smaller car. We had a Jetta and it was a little tight. Could be a somewhat challenging for a larger SUV, but the hotel also offers valet parking. Definitely a great stay, and one we would repeat on our next visit to this lovely city."
