“Disappointing!”

Reviewed May 19, 2013 NEW

My husband and I chose this hotel because of its location. It is right on the waterfront across the street from the City Hall. Our balcony actually overlooked the ferry terminal. So far, it sounds perfect, doesn't it? Well, unfortunately, a few things marred the experience. One, being non-smokers ourselves, who wants to sit on their balcony breathing in smoke?... More

“Had a very nice stay.”

Reviewed April 24, 2013

Stopped here on our road trip around Lake Ontario. Kingston is a nice little town on the Canadian side, right at the point where the St. Lawrence River leaves Lake Ontario, close to the 1000 Islands area. Kingston itself has a lot to offer, with nice restaurants and bars and Fort Henry as a UNESCO World Heritage site, it's a... More

This hotel is in a terrific location -- on the waterfront, a block from downtown Kingston, in one of the more interesting university towns in Canada.

Stayed here this Easter past weekend while visiting my daughter at university. Excellent location on the waterfront. Very close to stores and shopping. Major restaurants are walking distance (Jack Astors, Milestones, Lone Star). Nice pubs also very close by. Room was very clean, comfortable and had a nice view of the harbour. Looking forward to going back in the summer.
