“Average”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

I have very little to say about this hotel that is positive. A few of the staff made the stay bearable, but otherwise I would not recommend it. I received wake-up calls before 6am on two days - for the wrong room. I had no hot water for four days. Room service was not prompt and often incorrect - you could be waiting a long time to eat what you did not order. Concierge services are non-existent. The buffet breakfast was extremely basic. At least the bed was comfortable, the bar was cheap and the wireless service worked (slowly, but relatively reliably).

Room Tip: Face the courtyard / pool to avoid the street noise, if you can.

“My Kingston visit”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

I stayed at the Knutsford Hotel for four days in January, 2012. The hotel was moderately priced and my visit there was wonderful. The staff were very friendly and the food in the restaurant was great. My room had been re-decorated and was very pleasant and clean. It is a good basic hotel...nothing fancy, but of good value. I will be staying there next year when I will return with friends for our yearly meetings. Be sure to stop by the Devon House for ice cream, too while in Kingston!

Room Tip: The rooms over looking the garden are very nice.

“You have to experience it for yourself”

I stayed at the hotel for 2 weeks this past visit and I was once again welcomed by the very friendly and courteous staff in the business. After reading other reviews, I am not sure as to why people feel as though the staff are not trustworthy. I am confident in saying that I have never had an issue with any staff member and they always go out of the way to ensure that I feel safe and comfortable. I want to acknowledge the Bar and Restaurant staff and how everyone who comes in contact with them states that they are the reason why they will or do come back. I trust that Management will make note of this and do the right thing. The hotel has been going through various renovations and are always trying to improve their looks but lets be honest, renovations take time. Is it really that important to have a flat screen in your room? I have and will continue to recommend this hotel to my friends. Great job everyone.

“Knutsford Court”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

A little out of the way, quite and inexpensive, the food was average but the staff extreemly pleasant, I see it as a cheaper version of the Courtleigh a sister hotel in the same town. The room I had was clean but the only windows were in the bathroom, which seemed odd.

The pillows I had were too high for me but thats me. Hot Breakfast was included and although limited to Eggs and Sausage, it was fine,

“Do not take the photos of the rooms for granted”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed one night at the Knutsford in December 2011. I went by the photos online on the hotels website to book a room. We received a room that was the same quality as a motel 6, nothing like the photos they have of the available rooms. No flat screen tv, bedding was very old and nothing like what was promised. No internet access in the rooms The parking is plentiful but we entered through the back of the hotel in torrential rain and had to wade through several inches of water to get to the lobby. No signage to point a traveler to the front of the hotel for easier access. One bright spot to the evening was the onsite restaurant, very reasonable prices and possibly one of the best meals I have had in Jamaica. Our server was fabulous, thus the three stars I have given the hotel. There is a decent free breakfast offered in the morning but those servers were not as professional or helpful as the waitress in the upstairs restaurant.
