soft linens, big bathroom

dated lighting

Charming hotel with excellent service and cozy ambiance. Enjoyed the complimentary champagne and stellar dining. Just be mindful of the temperature controls! 🥂😊

The toasted sandwiches at the on-site restaurant were nothing short of culinary delights! Plus, the pool's perfect temperature made for a refreshing dip after a day of exploring. I loved the courtesy of the staff—like when we received champagne at check-in. pure class!

However, a cheeky credit card mix-up left me a bit puzzled, and the charges lingered after I checked out early.

Great breakfast, but noisy air conditioning system.

But oh dear, the first room's card didn’t work—definitely not my idea of an escape room! And breakfast availability? A roulette game I wasn't prepared for.

Checked in around 8pm and they welcomed us with champagne. The bed was comfy, like you'd sink into it after a long day. Plus, we had a nice moment in the empty clean pool. just floating around was bliss.

It wasn’t exactly a bargain, but it was still acceptable for what we got.

perfectly positioned near parks and popular attractions

I had a wonderful stay, especially enjoying how close it was to Briarwood Mall for some quick shopping and just a short 10-minute walk to Mary Beth Doyle Park, where I loved strolling through the greenery and taking in the beautiful views.

During my stay, I enjoyed a meal at the onsite restaurant, which offered a good selection of local dishes. I relaxed by the pool after a busy day exploring local attractions, which provided a much-needed break. The staff greeted me with a glass of prosecco at check-in, making me feel welcomed. I appreciate good service and pleasant amenities. I traveled alone and value comfort during my trips as an art historian, so these touches mattered.

The Kensington Hotel offers comfortable rooms and attentive service, making it suitable for families or group stays. The pool area is a nice touch, and room service adds convenience. However, improvements in room amenities, such as better fridge quality and clearer information on housekeeping schedules, are needed.

Loved chilling by the pool and the outdoor space was great. The honeymoon suite added a special touch with the hot tub and surprise snacks. It was an amazing experience!

Felt really comfortable, nothing to complain about.

Breaking it down, plain and simple

Attentive staff made check-in memorable, with a complimentary champagne toast! Rooms are clean, featuring comfortable beds and excellent shower pressure. Great proximity to local restaurants and shopping. The warm indoor pool was a highlight during the chilly weather. Free parking and quiet ambiance enhance the stay for travelers seeking comfort.

The staff at this hotel were genuinely welcoming, offering a refreshing champagne toast during check-in. The room was comfortable, clean, and came equipped with a fridge, which proved to be quite handy. However, the location requires a car to reach nearby restaurants and shops, and I encountered an unexpected oversight as my room wasn't tidied during my stay. While the amenities like the pool were inviting, the cleanliness issue did detract from the overall experience.

The rooms can feel run down and do not match online photos. one guest noted a strong smell of smoke lingering in their room. The thermostat issues are concerning, as the entire hotel operates on a single temperature setting, leaving some guests uncomfortably warm. There’s a lack of laundry facilities and the gym isn’t open 24 hours, which can be inconvenient for those with busy schedules.

Just a prime choice for a flash stay in Ann Arbor with great value for money. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, always asking if we needed anything. Be sure to check when food service is available to avoid any surprises.
