Enjoyed my complementary morning coffee in their comfy bathrobes on the porch swing in the middle of an ice storm. The morning breakfast was lovely, enjoyed the ensuite and fireplace in the McKay room.

Beautiful inn! We had a lovely stay in the Martello room. It was an extremely cold weekend in Kingston and it was so nice to come back to our cozy room with the fireplace. Our breakfast in the morning was delicious and the staff was very attentive.

What a gem, located in walking distance to shopping, harbour and pubs. Great gourmet breakfast too. 5 stars, great reception by McKinley, breakfast service by Daryl and cooking and hospitality by Jason, and easy parking right in front. Will definitely return here when in Kingston again.

The staff were first rate and the grounds were amazing! Great room but could have had better AC. Breakfast was terrific!

This is a lovely B&B in the heart of downtown Kingston. The rooms are beautifully updated with quality amenities for coffee, small fridge, toiletries etc. The location is perfect for exploring Kingston or attending business at the hospital or university.

Lovely place! Beautiful environment. We really liked our room, it was charming spacious enough, bed was comfortable. Really loved the washroom, modern yet reminiscent of the era of the house. Highly recommend staying here.

Lovely heritage property with gorgeous gardens, elegant decour and beautiful stained glass windows throughout. All staff were welcoming, friendly and provided top notch service. Wish we had more than just one night.
Robin, 1-night trip

Beautiful property; we were in the MacKay room and enjoy the spacious room, delicious breakfast and the staff are wonderful. We left our car parked and walked to everything. Dining choices abound. I would recommend this to adults and save time to relax on the porch.

Great location and beautiful property. We walked to dinner downtown and to the Queen's campus both in minutes l. The room was very nice and the hospitality amazing We had a delicious breakfast We will go back!

The only problem with the detached bathroom was the worry of disturbing other rooms during the night. While the breakfasts were good I prefer a variety of things to eat each morning. Over all our stay was outstanding and we will stay again.

This is lovely BnB. The air conditioning is regulated centrally for the rooms. Ours at the top of the house was quite hot and we had to ask them to put the heat down. Would have appreciated if this was pointed out to us. Otherwise a beautiful experience.
Arie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Cute bed and breakfast. Food was good. Friendly and helpful staff The bed was far too high! I literally had to put my foot on the bed rails and jump into bed! If I was older or had bad knees or hips I never would have been able to get into the bed. There was a small stair but not enough room on my side of the bed to put it there and it was a tripping hazard in the middle of the night Also, Covid is over! Time to tidy the rooms and fresh towels!
Suzanne, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The property is lovely. Our main complaint was the room we booked had a bathroom located down the hall. It was private but you had to leave your room and walk down the hall to use the bathroom, shower etc. not much fun in the middle of the night. We were not made aware of this until check in. I may not have booked had I been aware of this. Awkward if you ran into someone else coming out of their room.
Kim, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this daringly restored magnificent Victorian heritage property. Staff were attentive and friendly. They left clear instructions and keys for my late check in and even packed delicious homemade scones as I left before breakfast service on my last day. The breakfast of either grilled portobello mushroom on toast with poached egg and pesto or fresh fruit crepe was scrumptious. Being Queens alumni, I appreciated the significance of staying in the Bader room. The four poster bed was very comfortable with an assortment of pillows. Custom Secret Garden toiletries manufactured in Kingston were luxurious. Being an avid gardener, I enjoyed the well kept gardens immensely. It was so nice to relax at the end of the day by the koi pond or on the porch swing. I would highly recommend this gem and will stay again. Many thanks to the owner Jason who even contacted me to ensure my stay was perfect.

정성스럽게 관리되는 아름다운 숙소에서 편안한 밤을 보냈습니다. 아침으로 제공된 버섯요리와 프렌치토스트도 맛있었고요. Host인 Jason은 늦은 도착에 대비해서 친절하게 체크인에 대해 설명해주었고 주차 자리를 확인하기 위한 문의에, 늦은 밤인데도 불구하고 바로 응답해줘서 정말 고마웠습니다. 다만 체크아웃 과정이 매끄럽지 않았던 부분은 조금 아쉽습니다.
