Top Canada's Penitentiary Museum Hotel Reviews

Strata Hotel

8/10 Good

"It's really just another normal hotel - but it was super clean and the woman at the front desk was very pleasant. The guy the next morning at the front desk made a very decent cappuccino. No complaints (except avoid Pizza Hut next door, bland food, all bread.) I didn't use any of the amenities or eat there."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Kingston Central by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was fine. Perfect location and the price is right, outside of busy season."

Motel 6 Kingston, ON

10/10 Excellent

"Good value for a lower "star" motel. The motel is dated, but kept clean. If you are just there to sleep, it will serve your purposes. Staff is friendly and deal with things well - 5 star. Coffee and muffins are 1 star!"

Confederation Place - Hotel

8/10 Good

"For travellers looking to book a hotel with a good location and a bit more economical than other hotels in the area, this hotel was decent. The breakfast provided is a great variety of food. The area of the hotel for the breakfast is clean, bright and spacious. If you’re planning to do the 1000 Islands Tours, the hotel is right beside the dock for departure and across the street from where you pick up your boarding ticket."

Residence Inn by Marriott Kingston Water's Edge

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was conveniently placed to walk to bars and restaurants"

Holiday Inn Kingston Waterfront by IHG

"Everything was great - balcony room overlooking Kingston harbour and we lucked out with perfect fall weather. Managed to find our way in and out of parking lot while entrance construction was happening - minor detail!!"

Donald Gordon Hotel and Conference Centre

8/10 Good

"Our preferrred accommodation in Kingston. Quiet, consistent, excellent staff and well equipped. Onsite parking and full breakfast in the dining room. Suggest upgrading the aged televisions and streaming options."

Best Western Fireside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Notre séjour a été d'une seule nuit mais la chambre et salle de bain sont très propres et très bon confort pour dormir. Nous avions eu la même expérience il y a un an."

Courtyard by Marriott Kingston Highway 401/Division Street

8/10 Good
