    My wife and I chose Princess Gardens after a thorough investigation of other similar establishments. The location provides easy access to stores, restaurants, theatres, and a very pleasant walking path along the river. The entire staff is friendly, supportive and quickly learned our names and special needs. Meals are varied and , on the whole, delicious. Of special importance to us was access to health care 24/7 provided by qualified staff. When my wife died I was well supported by staff and other residents. Princess Gardens is now my home.

    My father moved into Princess Gardens in December. It was the best decision! He loves it at the Gardens. There is so much to do and he has met so many friends. I love that I know he is taken care of by the friendly and professional staff. Everyone is so patient and supportive. Dad loves the variety of food offered and that he doesn’t have to cook anymore. I highly recommend Princess Gardens to anyone looking for a retirement residence.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We've stayed at Princess Garden twice now and would go back without hesitation. The biggest thing for us was how friendly everyone was — staff and residents — and how quickly you feel at home rather than like you're in a facility. Nothing feels institutional about it. The organization here is excellent. Schedules and activities are well laid out, so you never feel overwhelmed — it's easy to choose what suits you without any stress. The food deserves a special mention. Every meal offered a great variety, and the quality was outstanding — truly appetizing and appealing, which can be so important for older guests. Between meals, the cafeteria is always available for snacks, which is a lovely touch. The dining room staff were exceptional and made every meal a relaxed and enjoyable experience. For me personally, having access to pianos was a real treat and added a lot to the experience. Highly recommend.
