“Holiday Inn Express in Gananoque strikes a balance of value and practicality. The hotel is well-situated for exploring the Thousand Islands, including boat tours, and provides a solid base with its clean, if somewhat dated, rooms. I think the pool, sauna, and coin laundry add real convenience, rounding out a stay that focuses on essentials.”
