“Donald Gordon Hotel stands out for its consistent rates, a welcome change from Kingston's fluctuating prices, and the included breakfast buffet seals the deal. Situated on Queen's University campus, it's a place that prioritizes community and ethical operations alongside convenience, with easy access to downtown. While the structure is a little dated, the on-site spa with health and wellness treatments is where this hotel shines.”
