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!
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. :
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 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.
Easy to get to by tram service, car satnav may drop you at property next door around corner from hotel. Lovely open plan reception area with ramp access. Booked 3 night stay as visiting from UK. Room very modern, neat kitchen area that blends into a dining table then sleeping area. Two sides of room had glazing with one onto balcony. Bathroom beautifully fitted out. Lovely use of mirrors and frosted glass doors. Bed super comfortable with pristine bedding. If you needed something that was not in room the staff kindly would try to resolve it. Example was access to saucepans which come in clear box when requested. Bonus is a combi microwave. What made our stay so pleasing was a very professional receptionist called Alice. From Italy , beautifully spoken has a hint of Ireland in her tone. Her demeanour was without question best we have ever experienced. Professional in her service but the cherry on the cake is her personality and attitude towards guests. She always smiled, always asked how we were, offered advice on the area, represented The Kitson to highest standard and importantly was very sociable. Her peer was also very helpful but it was Alice who made our stay so enjoyable. Thank you Alice
