Hotel Arts Kensington

All the staff at Hotel Arts Kensington were very attentive! Our meal in the dining room was fabulous. We chose an executive suite which was clean and well appointed. The balcony was a great place for my morning coffee. Location was safe, great shopping and great to cross the street to walk along the river trails!

We stayed 3 nights in Hotel Arts Kensington. Te room was beautifully designed spacious and well maintained. Service was good and staff was very friendly.||Breakfast was good although not very extensive. Croissants and different types of bread and spreads would have been appreciated. Also keeping f.i. bread and orange juice suffiently available during breakfast timings can be improved

The hotel is very conveniently located in Kensington and in good condition. The decor is gloomy. Our room was cold and I was told they had a central ventilation system which could not be changed. Other than that the room was comfortable and a decent size. They only serve a continental breakfast which is fine except it was of very average quality. Poor fruit selection. Minimal pastries and ‘corporate’ coffee.

My husband and I booked a one night stay to celebrate our wedding anniversary.|Our room (Executive Suite) was spacious and comfortable, with a fireplace and lovely patio outside,and very comfortable bed (I could actually sleep with pillows that were not too soft!)|Dining at their restaurant (Oxbow) was one of the best experiences at a hotel restaurant I've had in a long time. Our server, Morgan, was a true gem and had no problems changing some of the dishes we ordered to reflect my dietary restrictions. She even brought us each a glass of champagne (mine was non-alcoholic) on the house to celebrate our special day! Delicious food (we picked a large selection of their Happy Hour appetizers) and great ambiance.|This hotel deserves 5 stars and is a place we will be coming back to again!

The bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in at a hotel! The hotel is on a busy street but the curtains were heavy and any sound was blocked out. The staff were all polite and helpful. We only had one night but it was certainly to be recommended.

We enjoyed our two nights here very much. It's an older, smaller hotel, but we liked that scale and the artwork everywhere makes it special. Our room was spacious and clean, and staff were exceptionally helpful. It's not necessarily the quietest space -- you get traffic noise from a busy main road and the pubs, etc. in Kensington if you open the windows. But it was fine for sleeping with them closed.

Nice small hotel. Room was quiet and spacious, bed was comfortable. We had a nice patio outside our room. Staff were friendly and responsive. The location was almost perfect; right by the river and lots of restaurants and shops. Our only issue during our stay was the air in our room was smokey at times. This was from the fireplace in the dining room. I'm sure some might appreciate the fireplace, but to me it seems like a bad idea in an urban area, I'm sure their neighbours don't appreciate it it either. If they give up the wood fire I would 100% come back. If a little smoke doesn't bother you, don't hesitate to book this place, it's otherwise excellent.

We had a nice stay @ Hotel Arts Kensington for our mini moon. Check in with Colin was smooth & seamless. The espresso martinis @ Oxbox are delicious & the service is amazing:)||Lots to do & see around Kensington. Getting to downtown core was a very quick Uber ride away.
