Kingston Theatre Hotel

We were upgraded to a Junior suite and, although, it was a bigger room, the bed wasn't as big as we had expected. The bathroom was ok, but nothing special. The whole hotel, although clean, is looking a little tired...I wonder how much it has changed since the 1990s? The breakfast was fine - not much in the way of fresh fruit, but there were several choices of cooked breakfast, which was served to your table. It would have been nice to have a fish option on the menu, given that the hotel is in Hull! The coffee was not very good at all: just instant!!

Friendly welcome at reception. Upgraded to executive room due to a booking error which was nice. Room spacious and all I needed. Large bathroom, comfy bed and some nice touches with things for my dog and a pack of things like ear plugs, mask and stuff to spray on your pillow for a good night's sleep. Not sure it worked. Nice meal on my first evening.

Loved the location - just a 10 minute stroll to the centre of town but on the edge of a lovely quiet square outside the New Theatre. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served swiftly and was very nice. I had asked for a room with a good amount of desk space for working - I was given a free upgrade on arrival which delivered that, and more. The room was very large and well-equipped - robes, safe, iron etc.

On arrival we got an upgrade on our room which was a nice little touch. The room was very large with everything you need in a hotel room. Very clean and cozy. Within walking distance to the centre. Lovely little bar for a drink. We are going to book again but eat in the restaurant. The full English breakfast was really nice and they also had small bowls of fresh fruit salad to choose from along with the usual cereal etc.

We made a very late booking, as we had seen the weather forecast and felt it prudent to travel the day before we needed to go. We chose it because it offered B&B and parking. When we arrived, just after 6pm, we found there was a restaurant in the hotel, so ate dinner there . It was freezing outside so we were glad not to have to go outside again. Staff were all very pleasant and welcoming. The food was good, too. Liked the fact we were given a free car-park pass for the next day, so we could explore Hull before heading to the ferry port. (Parking free outside the hotel until 8.30am)
