Summerside hotels give you a quiet base on the south shore of Prince Edward Island. This guide covers the Summerside hotels and motels we could confirm with at least one official source. You will find three main hotels, three smaller properties, and a correction for two resorts the old guide placed too close to town. Addresses and phone numbers come from Tourism PEI and from the properties. Rates change daily, so we do not quote them.

Motels in Summerside: Smaller and Seasonal Options
Two smaller properties fill the motel niche. We found each in the Tourism PEI listings only, so treat each as unconfirmed until you call.

Where to Stay in Summerside Near Spinnaker’s Landing
Wikivoyage describes Spinnakers’ Landing as a waterfront marketplace built on a fishing village theme. Summerside Harbour frames the area. The Loyalist Country Inn overlooks the harbour, and Days Inn sits near historic downtown. Both put you close to the waterfront and downtown.
The Summerside Farmers Market runs Saturdays from 9 AM to 1 PM at 250 Water Street, according to Wikivoyage. Check the current schedule before you plan around the market.
The International Fox Museum stands at 33 Summer Street. The Wyatt Historic House Museum stands at 75 Spring Street.

Tourism PEI lists the College of Piping and the Harbourfront Theatre as nearby cultural venues. Confirm show dates and hours with each venue.
Two Resorts the Old Guide Placed Too Close to Summerside
The earlier version of this guide listed The Gables and Rodd Brudenell as short drives from Summerside. Neither sits near town. We corrected both entries.
The Gables of PEI stands at 218 Schoolhouse Lane in Stanley Bridge on the north shore. Tourism PEI describes a resort with villas, suites, and vacation homes. The season runs from 15 May to 12 October. Amenities include a saltwater pool, a tennis court, and full kitchens. Tourism PEI lists no on-site restaurant or spa, so the old claim of a world-class spa does not hold. Call 855-770-6963 for details. The property sits in Stanley Bridge, not Cavendish.
Rodd Brudenell River Resort stands at 86 Dewars Lane in Georgetown on the eastern part of the island. Tourism PEI lists the resort as open all year with a pool, a hot tub, on-site food service, and pets permitted. Call 902-652-2332. We could not confirm the waterslides the old guide mentioned. Tourism PEI places the resort on the Points East Coastal Drive, so choose Brudenell only if you plan to stay in eastern PEI.
We give no drive times for either resort. Check a map before you decide to base yourself in Summerside and visit them.
Getting to Summerside and Getting Around
Wikivoyage places Summerside 60 km west of Charlottetown along Route 2. From the Trans-Canada Highway near Borden-Carleton, drive Route 1A about 22 km north-northwest to Route 11. Wikivoyage mentions bus service but gives no details, so check the current schedule with the carrier.
Most visitors drive. A car also helps you reach the surrounding sights. Wikivoyage lists the Bottle Houses at Cap-Egmont, 31 km away, and the Canadian Potato Museum in O’Leary, 60 km away. The Acadian Museum in Miscouche sits 8 km west of town. Tourism PEI says the Quality Inn lies within 30 minutes of Cavendish, Green Gables, and Sandspit Amusement Park.
The 30-minute figure comes from a hotel listing, so confirm the route and time on a map before you plan a day trip.
How to Choose Among Summerside Hotels
Families should start with the Quality Inn and Suites. Two pools, a free par-3 golf course, and family suites give children space to move.
Travelers who want harbour views should look at the Loyalist Country Inn. The hotel also offers a sauna, a fitness centre, and a restaurant on site.
Travelers who want a free hot breakfast and a modern room should compare Microtel with the Quality Inn. Both list a free breakfast.
Pet owners have several choices. Tourism PEI lists pets as permitted at the Loyalist, Quality Inn, Days Inn, Summerside Motel and Cottages, and Canadas Best Value Inn. Microtel permits pets for an added fee. Fees and weight limits vary, so ask each property.
Budget-minded travelers should call the motels and compare the total with taxes and fees. We do not quote rates. Prices shift by date, so compare two booking sites and a phone quote.
Before you pay, confirm the property name, the cancellation policy, parking, breakfast hours, and late arrival rules. Ask for written confirmation.
