We enjoyed our stay at the Kingsgate Hotel for several reasons. The comfort of the living room space was an added bonus to the bed & shower. We ate one take home meal and it felt like home. Our suites sliding glass doors were wide open with crisp fresh air & no noise! The staff were super helpful & we were grateful for their assistance. The breakfast was more than we could have asked for or wanted to start our day.

We got a great deal on 3 nights, thought it looked good online, when we got to the hotel the outside and lobby is quite dated so we were a bit worried about the room condition, however the room looked recently remodeled, the bed was super comfy, the bathroom was a bit dated but not bad. Staff was friendly and helpful! I wouldnt pay for the buffet breakfast but if free with your room, not the worst way to start the morning. Overall happy and would stay again

Friendly & Great Location
Kingsgate Hotel had friendly staff and fantastic location across the road from the Town Hall and close to the Octogan. Our room was spacious for the 3 of us and clean, however very tired and old decor. Breakfast was OK and appreciated they had gluten free options. Parking at $15 a night was pricey but plenty of parking on the street. A refurb/update would make this an awesome hotel!
