We stayed for one night, and overall it was a lovely experience. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, which we really appreciated. However, for the price, there were a few small things that could be improved.nnWhen we arrived at our room, we spent a couple of minutes trying to figure out how to turn the lights on. Some of the lamps weren’t working, and a simple set of instructions would have been helpful. The bathroom door didn’t close properly, and water from the shower leaked onto the bathroom floor—we had to use two towels to soak it up because it got quite wet. There also wasn’t a rubbish bin in the room, which was a bit inconvenient.nnThat said, the room itself was beautiful and comfortable, and we did enjoy our stay. I’d give it a solid 6/10—just a few small things that could be looked at to improve the overall experience. :
The Kinson has consistently been a very good place to stay. I’ve stayed here about four times now. While the overall experience has been positive, there have been a few odd moments. On one occasion, housekeeping left behind a dirty glass and a few personal items that weren’t ours. Some rooms also have minor design flaws, like shower doors that open directly over the toilet or motion-sensor bathroom lights that can switch off while you're still in the shower.nnThat said, the rooms are very spacious, mostly clean, and the beds are extremely comfortable. The location is excellent, right on St Kilda Road with easy access to six tram routes into the city. It’s also close to both Chapel Street and St Kilda where many of Melbourne's best bars and clubs are located.nnThere’s no gym or pool, but the onsite restaurant and bar are a nice addition. Overall, a great stay and I would definitely return!
I have been staying at The Kinson quite frequently over the last month and I have to say it is a wonderful hotel. The location, the staff, the bed, the rooms…the list could go on. It is a beautiful boutique hotel with first class service. Nothing is ever too much for the staff who are always smiling and dedicated to making sure your stay is a pleasant one. The restaurant next door has an amazing steak sandwich which I highly recommend also. Overall do yourself a favour and try out The Kinson. I give it 5 stars and it’s my new favourite hotel.
There’s so many red flags with this place.nnDuring my entire stay, I’ve experienced:nn1. Rude service but tbf it’s only usually from the guy with the shoulder length curly hair and sometimes from the manager directly.nn2. Unresponsive and uncaring management. Literally, you’ll be directed to just always send an email which only gets responded to maybe one out of ten times.nn3. Random entries to my room without prior advance notice and if there is notice, it’s very short like less than 48 hours or so.nn4. Found maintenance personnel stepping over my bed to fix the light.nn5. Refusal to update the lighting fixture by the kitchenette with a proper bulb leaving the entire kitchenette area dark.nn6. Silence in relation to the refund of my bond back.nn7. They’re now also under external administration. So that probably helps tell you how bad things are going with this place ‍nnThe only sad thing now is I hope the nicer staff doesn’t get too affected by the winding up.
I always return to The Kinson for reasons according to my review of the property. Very helpful staff, very private rooms, great views of Melbourne and the bay area, excellent location and CBD trams almost right at it's doorstep. Not forgetting to mention the delicious, authentic Italian dishes served at the restaurant onsite -Vivi Melbourne.
