If you can live without private bath and handle a small room this is just right. Room is clean, and the price is hard to critizise. They offer all kinds of rooms at different rates, but the absolute cheapest deal is the above, no bath, single room. Location is excellent and resonable parking around the corner. A small complimentary toast... more

I stayed a week in one of their 1 bdrm suites which was a great "homebase" for my first time to Vancouver. If you have a lot planned while you're there, I suggest you do the same as I found it was perfectly centralized to all I wanted to do. So much so, I could walk anywhere without any trouble.... more

The Kingston Hotel is a little gem of a B & B Hotel in Vancouver. The Kingston is a family owned and operated B & B Hotel, located in the very heart of Vancouver.The personal touch is felt upon arrival, and can be observed in the many details throughout this fine little gem. Safe, clean and comfortable - it is... more

What luck to find a hotel run by people who have not forgotten they are in the hospitality business. I stay in lots of hotels in Canada and the U.S. and often feel ripped off, -- but not at the Kingston Bed & Breakfast Hotel. Anyone travelling to Vancouver who is offended by the outrageously high rates and poor service... more

I would never go back!!!! We booked at Hotel Vancouver for 8 nights last September only our plans changed so I emailed to change the reservation to one night instead of eight. Apparently they didnt get my email so not only did they cancel our entire reservation, they charged us a cancellation fee. When we arrived for the 1 night... more

I've just stayed twice (4 nights & 2 nights) at the Kingston (Hotel, Bed and Breakfast) in conveniently located in Downtown Vancouver, and should I ever need to again this is where I'll stay! The Kingston is basic - clean rooms, some with private baths some with shared toilets/showers. I had the latter (due to the lateness of my booking... more

I have been staying at the Kingston several times a year for 24 years. It is still the best deal in town. The rooms without a private bath, though small, are comfortable and clean. They do not have TV and breakfast is only toast, orange slices and beverage, but what do you expect for $55 in a major city. The... more

Very disappointed with this hotel. It was advertised as a Bed & Breakfast, however "breakfast" turned out to be orange juice, toast and slices of orange. Every day. The computer was "out of order" the entire time. The wireless was not working most of the time I was staying there. At some point it was partly fixed and worked in... more

I have been staying at this hotel almost every month for a week and it is my home away from home. The staff is friendly and kind. For a traveler on a budget this is THE absolute best deal in Vancouver, and you are RIGHT downtown in the center of the action - just off Robson and Granville. The rooms... more

My husband and I stayed at the Kingston for three nights recently. We found it to be adequate and pretty typical of low-budget accomadations (pensions) I have stayed in in Europe. If you're looking for an "American experience" this is not the place for you. The Kingston rooms are small and old, although clean and newly enough remodeled. The bathrooms... more
