Hotel Kinsley

"I loved my stay at this boutique hotel! It was so clean and overall beautiful only con would be the parking lot being a few blocks away but it wasn’t really far it was just a very cold day. Other than that beautiful and loved this hotel!"

"I am giving the rooms and service five stars because they were just fine for our needs (clean, spacious, simply but nicely appointed). This is not a luxury destination. I believe the hotel comprises 4 buildings. Our building sat atop the Kinsley Restaurant, situated at a relatively "busier" intersection. So, a couple times over the course of three days, we heard a loud passerby. Not a big deal as it takes them a couple seconds to pass."

"Fantastic hotel. We had a king bed room in the Fair Street building. About a 4-5 minute walk to the main building for check in and out, breakfast, and dinner. We had a very spacious suite (201) on the second floor with a living room with two comfortable arm chairs and a small sofa (big enough for a nap). The bedroom had two side tables, reading lamps, a desk and chair, refrigerator, tv, and luggage rack. A very spacious marble floored and walled bathroom with large shower and double sinks. The living room and bedroom each had two windows facing west. Great afternoon sun. The bedroom also had a south facing window. The bath had a south facing window looking out at the roof of the adjacent building (very private). We had two mini split units with controls for HVAC. The entire building was in terrific shape. It must have just been renovated. Very attractive decor throughout. Everything was clean, modern, and worked. Even though we looked out at the street, our room was very quiet throughout our four night stay, with the exception of about 10 pm to 1 am Friday night when our upstairs neighbors came home and pounded around with heavy feet. Otherwise we never heard a soul. The continental breakfasts were very nice. Choice of croissants, several varieties of pastries, breads, and bagels, hard boiled eggs, excellent coffee, tea, a nice variety of fresh fruit, oj, and gourmet yoghurts. We had dinner twice at the restaurant. Very delicious, great service, attractive space, etc. There are many very nice restaurants within walking distance that will suit all budgets. Free parking in hotel owned lots right behind and across the street from the building. We'll be back!"

"as hotel as it amenities are sparse. We stayed 10/11-13. When we checked and learned elevator was out of order we asked to change our room from 3rd to 2nd floor. Sorry no 2nd floor rooms available. So we muled our luggage to 3rd floor- no offer from reception to asist. Our room was nice but bath sink spout was very loose and stopper broken. Maintenance was gone for day -at 4pm And we were offered another room same floor which was very nice. Went to bar and had couple drinks. Next day went to sample continental breakfast- very limited. No decaf, no cappuccino although machine is there - No bananas. The property is in excellent location. We went out for day advising front desk To just give us fresh towels-no need to clean. Upon returning at 4 we found same towels. Called front desk no answer. Went down to advise and there was line of 6 people. Theres only one position there. Stopped at bar again and was handed happy hour menu. I told bartender-different from previous day-that i was there ssme time day before and no mention of happy hour menu. Bartender said it was experimental and could not get adjustment from full price day before. Nice. Asked for change to feed meter out front- parking lot is 4 blocks away - and was told they don’t make change there. In summary, the rooms are very nice, location great but the level of service is amateurish. Especially given the rate. It needs professional management."

"I booked directly with Hotel Kinsley instead of thru a third party that I normally use. I wanted a specific room. Building was quiet and close to main establishment and restaurant. Common areas were actually nicer than room itself. Beautiful carpet and artwork in hallway was not same in room. Room was decorated with just okay furniture and bedding showed signs of use. Heated floor in bathroom was nice, shower door leaked and handle and seal were broken on shower door. No where to really hang up towels inside bathroom. Mirror was on opposite wall of sink and lighting was actually awful. Doesn’t work well with contacts and cosmetics. No usb to charge. WiFi never Worked for either of us. I guess I would say I wouldn’t return here to stay. I would however return to dine. We enjoyed everything about the restaurant. Decor menu and service and food were spot on. Breakfast idea here is also perfect. Not too much but just right. If Hotel Kinsley put as much effort to rooms as they do common areas this would work. Travel & Leisure recommended but thin walls and some improvements still needed. Lola pizza nearby is a great other option for dinner and Hotel Kinsley gives this suggestion at check in."
