Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were beautiful, super clean, and had a very fresh feeling, which I appreciated. However, my daughter's sofa bed wasn't as comfortable or clean as the rest of the room. The service was overall great with helpful staff from start to finish, though there weren't enough of them at times. The location was perfect for my needs, particularly for a meeting at Queen's, but I had to take a cab back from dinner due to dark residential streets. The dining experience was unexpectedly excellent, with a variety of delicious options. Despite minor inconsistencies, I found the place to be convenient and enjoyable overall.
The inn is conveniently located in the heart of Kingston, near Queen’s University and just a short stroll from downtown, making it perfect for exploring the vibrant city atmosphere. The staff were friendly and welcoming, although they lacked efficiency in addressing parking concerns. The breakfast spread was delicious, offering a variety of fresh treats. While the rooms could benefit from some updating and maintenance, they exuded a charming and cozy ambiance, providing a comfortable stay overall.
The hotel is a charming spot with traditional decor, friendly service, and historical charm. The rooms, while spellbinding with their traditional decor, were cooled by an old air conditioner but lacked opening windows, making the night noisy with the air con on. The amenities were clean, offering decent value for the price.
The hotel was fascinating with its three circular floors in the carriage house, offering creatively appointed, enormous rooms – one of the nicest I've ever stayed in. The service was amazing, super-friendly, very accommodating, and attentive to all needs. The location was great, showcasing Victorian architecture and within walking distance to downtown and the waterfront. The dining experience was good and plentiful, though some areas needed improvement. Overall, a unique hotel with excellent service and charming surroundings.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was perfect for my needs, close to downtown and quiet. The rooms were somewhat disappointing due to being small, hot, and close to noisy areas. The service was friendly and helpful, and the dining options were tasty but lacking some variety. The facilities were decent overall.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and had a great location close to downtown for drinks and food. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff offering valuable advice on exploring the area. The location was ideal, with free parking and proximity to key attractions. The dining experience was delicious, offering a great variety of options. The facilities were well-kept and enhanced my overall stay.
