“Perfect stay for me!”

Reviewed 15 February 2013

Lovely room, beautiful bathroom. This is century home, beautifully maintained. I enjoyed the fact that I could walk downtown, Peterborough appears very safe. The owner " hostess" is very attentive to the guests needs. A few words to describe her, nurturing , pleasant, very worldly. I can not say enough about the homemade breakfasts, served whenever you like. Hostess even... More

“Worst B&B Experience Ever”

Reviewed 20 June 2012

This is in response to the owner's reply to my review:As a previous owner of a small apartment building, I honestly do not wish any ill will on anyone or their business but in this particular case, in my lifetime, I have never been given as much grief with respect to our experience with this issue. The owner repeatedly ran... More

“Terrible - DO NOT STAY HERE!!!”

Reviewed 5 February 2012

I stayed at King Bethune's house a few weeks ago. I had to be in Peterborough for a class, and Marlis offered me a decent rate for the spa suite. Now.. let me tell you something about the "SPA SUITE"...The room was in the basement of an old, dirty house, the place smelled poorly and the bedding was NOT clean..... More

Thank you for your review Natalie. It is normal to pay a cancellation fee if you do not stay. I charged one night cancellation when you had five nights booked and I have two week cancellation policy. And I offered to wave the fee if you were coming back. I am also sorry you didn't like the room, contrary to... More

“A GOOD B & B with a caring owner”

Reviewed 30 January 2012

I agree with the other reviewers. Marlis went out of her way to make my brief stay as enjoyable as possible ( including cooking superb mushrooms for breakfast ). This is a B & B first with Spa amenities ( hot tub, steam room and sauna ) so don't go thinking your staying at an Aveeda 5 star . What... More

Marlis was wonderful, took care of every detail her custom breakfasts were meticulously prepared when we wanted them and quite wonderful by the kitchen fireplace. Caviar and local slab bacon with farm fresh eggs and beautiful handmade preserves were just a few of the items she set out over the course of our stay. The room was beautiful and the... More

Marlis did a wonderful job and was a wonderful hostess. The food was superb - great home-cooking! Her hospitality was superb as well. Look forward to staying there again soon. Always a treat! Thanks Marlis!

Do not stay at this property. There is more to this story but I will keep it short. The property is run by an older bedraggled woman who cannot keep up with the daily upkeep.It is located in a derelict area of town.It is filthy dirty and reeks of musty sewer odor.Bottom line, this was our worst B&B experience ever.Trust...

Reviewed 20 June 2012

I have noted your diligence since you have repeatedly posted this review even though it has been disputed and removed. I appreciate your clairvoyance since both you and I know you have never actually stayed here. Your cancellation charges were applied at 50% out of respect to your wife's disdain; but still you persist. Congratulations. More

“Very comfortable and accommodating”

Reviewed 10 October 2011

I had an excellent stay at King Bethune House. I have some special dietary requirements and was having a hard time finding a place in Peterborough that could accommodate those requirements. Marlis, the owner, rose to the challenge and then some. My room was comfortable and I slept very well for the five nights I was there. The owner is... More

“Charming B&B”

Reviewed 29 July 2011

We visited Peterborough to take the Lift the Locks cruise and stayed at this B&B. At first I was not so sure as the room seemed really crowded with too much stuff in it. The adjoining bath was a bit small. It was located in a great spot with a short walk to downtown and the waterfront area. The house... More

Based on the website I expected more and I was disappointed. The host is nice and tries hard. The place is very clean. It is located near lots of great restaurants & shopping.

Thank you for your review. I want to assure you that I have 'pulled up my socks'. The heat has been turned on in your room (it had been turned off and I was unaware of that) and additionally, a bed warmer has been placed in every room. As well, your bathroom has a separate heater with thermostat. I appreciate... More
