We had a few issues but they were all dealt with promptly. Wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend to anyone that needs a clean, quiet, spacious place to stay. Bonus is that you are a quick walk to Princess street which is full of restaurants and shops.

This hotel was really beautiful, clean and such a retreat. Contactless entry was easy and parking was also really simple. We enjoyed having the Bluetooth speaker, the toiletries smelled fantastic and the kitchen was set up perfectly. The bed and linens were so comfy. Would recommend this place for sure.

Great location and beautiful building.

The loft room was beautiful and had everything you need for your stay. Only thing to be aware of is the heating system does make regular noise and there is no elevators. For light sleepers, bring your earplugs. Hotel is located right downtown surrounded by eateries and shops.

Loved all the little touches - kitchen with quality, useful equipment and tools, speaker and record player were fun. Beds were very comfortable. Very pleasant experience and the location was very handy. Only thing we would change is increased air circulation - didn't really need it colder but needed more airflow as the air had a tendency to get kinda stale. Info on how to achieve this would be useful in the guest book.

Wrong Door Code in winter conditions

The door code yo get in the hotel was wrong in the check in information provided. I was stuck outside for half an hour in -25C weather. This is dangerous and someone is going to get hurt that way. Please double check this info is accurate for guests! Hotel was otherwise great!

The Smith Hotel: A Must Stay

This is a beautiful hotel with a great location near everything in downtown. The loft was amazing, interior decor was spectacular. Though contactless it was still easy to communicate with staff through their text service. Check in and checkout process was seamless. Wonderful hotel.

The Smith hotel is our favourite in Kingston. Easy to get to restaurants and the main strip but the best are the rooms. Beautiful, super clean with everything you might need. We love the record player and that each room is unique. Can’t wait to try a different room next time.
