“This Kingston hotel stands out for its event capacity, featuring the city's largest ballroom alongside a full-service restaurant. While clearly a draw for conferences, leisure travelers might appreciate the recreational amenities, including a splash pad, though some rooms could face noise issues. I think it's a solid choice for those needing space and amenities, provided noise isn't a major concern.”
