Frederick Street Inn

The location worked well for us, within walking distance of good restaurants, the farmers market, and city offices. We spent two comfortable days at the Frederick Street Inn, with gracious, helpful hosts and a quiet, relaxing, nicely decorated room. Breakfast had plenty of choices, good service, and pleasant conversation. We’d gladly come back and are grateful for such a lovely weekend stay.

I barely slept here. People upstairs kept walking, and the old floors creaked really loudly. My room was right beside the staff desk, so I was woken up early by them too. The staff were fairly friendly, but the washroom was pretty dirty. I’d definitely choose a hotel over this old house.

The downtown Kitchener location gives you plenty of nearby things to see and do. Our rooms were clean and tucked away, with a rustic look and modern amenities. The hosts and setting made our getaway feel almost like home, if home had a four-poster bed and jacuzzi tub. We’ll be back.

The hosts made us feel very welcome, and breakfast was such a treat. The robes and slippers were a lovely extra. The rooms were quite dry, so I’d suggest setting a pot of water on the radiator.
