- Waterfront proximity
- Restaurant with lake views
Our take
Its address is the main asset: the Holiday Inn Kingston - Waterfront sits a five-minute walk from the harbour, Slush Puppie Place and the 1000 Island Cruises dock. The indoor pool and the restaurant patio over Lake Ontario add value in summer, and the conference rooms suit business trips. Guest reviews average 7.9 across 960 opinions, so I see it as a convenient, well-placed choice rather than a standout stay.
- ✓Walk to the waterfront and Slush Puppie Place; it’s genuinely a short, easy stroll from the hotel.
- ✓Consider dining on the seasonal patio for dinner if you visit during warmer months to enjoy the Lake Ontario views.
- ✓Take advantage of the indoor pool, especially if you're traveling with children or visiting during cooler seasons.
Why we love it

Why guests love itI like this Holiday Inn for families who want to explore Kingston on foot. The waterfront, Slush Puppie Place and the 1000 Island Cruises departures are all about a five-minute walk away, so a harbour stroll or a boat trip needs no car. Back at the hotel, the indoor pool works in any season, and rooms with a small fridge and microwave make simple breakfasts and snacks easy. In summer, the restaurant patio looks out over Lake Ontario.
