Beautiful hotel. My check in process took less than 20 seconds. My room was preassigned overlooking the beautiful Water view with a great In House restaurant. Conveniently located in the heart of downtown this exquisite hotel is right at the end, tip and is near shops, eateries, and local attractions. The staff was so elegant and so professional and catered to all of my needs. I will be coming here annually, and will be choosing this hotel by far Keep it up

Great hotel and great location. Very clean and quiet as advertised. I have stayed at this hotel several times but mainly alone. This past stay I was with my family of 3 and as a member of the Canadian Armed Forces and a Silver member, I received 1 complimentary breakfast ticket. I was very disappointed that this Holiday Inn would be that cheap and when I brought this to their attention...I was told that is their policy. I recommend that all members of the CAF travelling with family in the Kingston area...please stay at Holiday Inn Express Kingston West! It has all the same amenities but only difference is that during my posting we received a complimentary breakfast for ALL family members...not just 1 for everyday we stayed. Thank you again Kingston West for recognizing my whole family.
