[vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Review: Delta Hotels Kingston Waterfront” el_id=”review_delta_hotels_kingston_waterfront”][vc_column_text]I read on Milesopedia about the Delta Hotels Kingston Waterfront<\/a> on Lake Ontario<\/strong>, where all rooms have water views. It was only 10 minutes from the train station by taxi. Quite nice after my train trip with Via Rail from Montreal<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107566″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107568″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107570″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]I had a certificate for a free night<\/strong><\/a> and the hotel offered nights that cost 35,000 points. It looked like a great deal. All I had to do was pay for the second night, which would give, as part of the current promo<\/a>, 2,500 additional points.<\/p>\n

And of course I would charge all my spending to 5 points per dollar on my Marriott BonvoyMD<\/sup> American ExpressMD<\/sup>* Card<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text]

On top of that, my new Platinum status<\/a> would give me free breakfasts<\/strong>. It was getting more and more interesting. So I invited my cousin who came running in and we booked a room with two double beds.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107202″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]I informed the hotel that my cousin was not in the habit of staying in a hotel, which is quite true, and that I would like her hotel baptism to be recognized with a small gesture. The upgrade<\/a> was not possible because the hotel was at full capacity according to the standards imposed by COVID<\/a>, but there was a little something waiting for us<\/strong> when we arrived.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107276″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_message]<\/p>\n

Antiseptic gel dispensers in several places, masks worn by staff and guests, markers on the floor to respect distance, reduced hotel and restaurant capacity, user limit at the pool and gym, etc.<\/p>\n

Everything’s by the book.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107284″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_custom_heading text=”Delta Hotels Kingston Waterfront Common Areas” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” el_id=”delta_hotels_kingston_waterfront_common_areas”][vc_column_text]We enter the Delta Hotels Kingston Waterfront<\/a> through the parking lot (which costs $22\/night) and we already have an idea of the customer experience<\/strong> that awaits us. There was a bunch of flowers next to the station to disinfect your hands. A little ‘something’ that we appreciated.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107282″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text]The lobby is straight ahead of us and the staff is friendly. Well, the decor sets the tone.<\/p>\n

It’s got a relaxing vibe. Perhaps it is because of the blue lights of The Vu<\/strong>the aqua paintings in the corridor leading to the elevator, the waterfall around the restaurant, and the many windows overlooking the sea. with a few on the lake and its marina.<\/strong> There’s no doubt we’ll be able to rest. You can feel it.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107196″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107192″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Lounge areas<\/strong> on the main floor, as on each floor in front of the elevator, invite the customer to sit down. The theme of nature is omnipresent. The lobby lounge also has a gas fireplace. We like the little flames.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107200″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107256″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image image=”107220″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107254″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107252″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The pool and gym. <\/strong>The opening of the pool and jacuzzi<\/a> was also a factor in the choice of hotel for this getaway. It was a nice little space, and we used it well. It was open between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. Towels were on site. No more than ten people at a time. There were four of us at most.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107230″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107226″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107228″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]The fitness center<\/strong> on site has cardio training equipment such as treadmills, in addition to dumbbells and free weights. With a view of the marina. Two people were allowed at a time.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107216″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107214″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107212″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]There’s also a small business space<\/strong>, but I didn’t see it used over the long weekend. There were two seats with everything we need to keep our business ties. Photocopy, fax.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107218″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Eating at Delta Hotels Kingston Waterfront” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” el_id=”eating_at_delta_hotels_kingston_waterfront”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Since we are in the middle of a pandemic, we have made the decision to eat at the hotel<\/strong>. In the dining room for breakfast, outside on the terrace for afternoon snacks and in the room for dinners.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107248″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]The hotel restaurant, Aqua Terra,<\/strong> didn’t disappoint us. Had it not been for the lukewarm meal delivered to the room, we would have given it a 9\/10. The restaurant offers an international cuisine<\/strong>, a nice wine list,<\/strong> and is recommended by magazines such as HuffPost Canada.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107280″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]The lunch served in the dining room is hearty and good.<\/strong> It was included with the Platinum status<\/a>. The view of the marina or the lake is soothing. Our waiter was bilingual with that distinctive Franco-Ontarian accent.<\/p>\n

Pumpkin French toast with maple butter? Or the chef’s special with his homemade bacon and tomato confit?[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107236″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”107242″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107210″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”107240″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Lunches on the terrace\/patio<\/strong> proved to be just as interesting. Sitting on the Adirondack chairs with a warming fire in front of us, we went there for a cheese fondue. Homemade pretzels with gherkins and pears. The entire menu is made up of dishes to share.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107206″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107246″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image image=”107208″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]Finally, the onion soup, spinach agnolotti, burgers and fries were good enough for both dinners in the bedroom.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]The Vu<\/strong>, annex to the restaurant overlooking the marina of the Confederation Basin<\/strong> also serves as the hotel bar. There is always the option of a big screen TV to watch a sports game, if you are less interested in the marina.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107364″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107196″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

Let’s face it, it’s one of the hotel’s strong points.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”107370″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107366″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”107362″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”checkmarks”]The bed is also comfortable, as is the bedding.<\/p>\n
