BBruce7066Seeing the online praise of Whitney Manor, I placed an order more than a month in advance in Trip.com and started to continue to look forward to it. When I arrived at the manor in the evening, the building was really outstanding. According to the instructions in the envelope left by the front desk, I entered the Greystone Suite. The eyes of the suite continued to surprise us. The manor has a long history and is well maintained by the current owner. The owner has a unique design for every item in the room, and also gives careful tips and guidance to the occupants who come. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the moon is full, he spent two days as the owner of the manor and spent a pleasant time leaving a good memory.

GGuest UserThe view from the window is lovely, and the bed is comfortable. The air conditioning is a bit noisy, and there’s some street noise. No bottled water or slippers were provided in the room. The breakfast is average but filling. The staff are friendly and make the stay pleasant. Overall, it was a decent experience, and I might consider staying again in the future.

FFANGYINGThe front desk is very welcoming. I need to change a few coins and take a bus on weekdays. Most of them can help. The room was very spacious, the quilt was a bit thick, and the air conditioner had to be turned down at night to sleep or it would get hot. Wifi is free and works well, no problem watching videos. Free breakfast, in the door on the left side of the entrance door, is a large hall with several tables and chairs. Breakfast is very simple but nutrition is enough. Two types of bread slices, several types of bagels, three types of muffin cakes, three types of crispy cereals with milk, peeled white boiled eggs, cold milk, several cold juices, hot coffee, hot water, and bags The Quaker Instant Oatmeal comes in two flavors: apples and oranges, all of which are whole. There are several stations around, close to kingston center, only a few minutes walk, there is the bus terminal and several supermarkets, shopping and transportation are convenient. In short, the price is very high.

GGuest UserWe enjoyed our stay in Dec 2024. Front desk staff were warm, welcoming, and very helpful with information about the area. The hotel has free parking and a decent size pool. There's a gym and facilities to do paid laundry. Breakfast was lovely with various options and the hosts there were awesome!. We stayed on the 5th floor, and the room itself was clean and fresh and the beds were super comfy. We would definitely stay again on our next trip to Kingston.
