The property is very beautiful, however the room had no warm water; not even a drop and there was zero WiFi available. Those are 2 very important amenities to me.

I enjoyed my stay despite the rain that literally flooded the walkway from the room to the front desk! We survived! Staff did their best to rectify the problems.

The best thing about this place is the staff. It’s ideal if you want to escape the world and have limited interaction with persons.

This hotel offers the best view of the wide-open harbor, overlooking downtown Kingston.
(There was a renovation taking place at the property when we stayed. The noise was quite intense. The hotel should not rent out the affected rooms during the renovation.)

The views at this property were beautiful, a massive plus for me. Pleasant and friendly staff, good food (lovely traditional breakfast at weekend) & music. The outside of the hotel looks great, rooms need just a little TLC.
Would stay again.

The Grand Hotel Excelsior is teeming with history and it is no surprise that not much has changed with the building. Everything is well maintained however. Making customers comfortable seems to the priority of staff.

Staff at front desk was not. Professional. Treated us like we were begging them breakfast. When we already paid for for 2 days . Gave me a receipt for one night.but charge for two. We were so turned off we refuse to spend the second night there.
However the place is nice but again staff just made it ugly.
