We loved our stay at Abode Kingston. The location was perfect for us and we could easily walk or uber to all the places we planned to visit. Choices of restaurants suited us perfectly. We really appreciated having facilities to make hot drinks and breakfast when we needed to. The room was spacious and very comfortable and quiet. Staff were warm and welcoming. They have thought of everything that a traveler could possibly need. Thank you.

It's my colleague's favourite, whenever he goes for Canberra work trip he would choose Abode Kingston, perfect location, friendly staff, street parking, sometimes he gets upgraded to studio with a small kitchenette so he can cook himself some dinner.
Always his top choice!

Room was very clean. Bed was way to soft, felt like it was sinking. Lovely location and perfect setup in the room with little kitchen and desk. Just great.

L’établissement est très propre et près de plusieurs bons resto et pub. Toutes le commodité y sont comme épiceries, gym, salon de coiffure.
Les chambres sont bien équipées mais tout de même petites.
Pour le déjeuner on doit sortir mais le resto a l’avant est fantastique.
Je trouve que c’est cher pour ce qu’on a. Les prix varient tellement d’une journée à l’autre que ça vaut si le prix convient.
Ce n’est pas un grand hôtel.

Well located near Kingston shops and a short walk to the lake foreshore or Manuka Oval. Limited parking around the hotel, much of it metered. (Parking on premises was extra.) The hot water service was undergoing maintenance so I had to have a cold shower and shave when I arrived. There is only one small lift, which you can sometimes wait several minutes for. No stairs were evident.

However, the property is quite new and in excellent condition. The room was nice, with a small table and chair, plus a lounge chair with a side-table. The area was quiet and I had a lovely view of a car park behind some shops. There are several cafes and eateries literally across the road, which was handy, and a supermarket 200m further down the street. I'd happily stay there again.

Property was clean and new, quiet and comfortable with close to dining spots.
The only glitch was with the system in the calendar setting and did a forward date instead of the date I selected. Resulting from $139.84 price to $196.20. Which was disappointmeting as there wasn't much difference in the days from the glitch in the system. Nothing could be done.

It's not a luxury stay but provided the necessary items. All the appliances are new. Although, they are mini-sized. The cleanness in the room is satisfied.
Only one thing has to be mentioned. The kitchen utensils are not enough to be used. For example, 2 big plates, 2 small plates, 2 small bowels, 2 spoons, 2 forks....

I recommend staying here as it is nearby the largest open-air fresh-soy market in the southern hemisphere. The stalls at the market open 7 days but get in before dawn to get the finest and most choicest soy beans before they are snapped up by soy-speculators/investors. The rooms are really nice and obviously influenced by soy-beans and it's local history and relevance to Kingston. Abode kingston is a soy-lid choice for any traveler as part of their own soy journey - grand soy tour. Would highly recommend ! I would rate them 10 Soy beans out of 10 if such a rating existing (which sadly it does not) Highly recommend!

We had a comfortable, spacious room at the Kingston Abode with new, well-equipped furnishings. Desk staff were friendly and helpful (desk staffed 8am-8pm). Breakfast vouchers enabled us to have a tasty breakfast across the street. Everything else we needed (transport, shops, gym) was within a block of the hotel.

Tucked away in a quiet, desirable suburb, this hotel offers a peaceful stay just 6km from the CBD. It’s a great option if you have a car, though it’s slightly removed from the action without one. Dining options by the lake are conveniently close by, adding to the appeal.

The room was impeccably clean and thoughtfully equipped. A heads-up for future guests - watch your step entering the bathroom due to a slight floor-level change or stubbed toes guaranteed, and be prepared for a bit of water to escape the shower area. Minor quirks, but nothing that detracted from our experience.

We were initially disappointed about the lack of secure parking, which was mentioned during booking, but found a free and convenient spot just a two-minute walk away, perfectly suitable for an overnight stay.

All in all, we’d happily recommend this hotel and look forward to staying again.

Having checked prior to booking and also once I had checked in, that there were rooms available if I needed to extend my stay, i was then overcharged to stay an extra night. I was told at reception my same room was available but I had to extend my booking through the same booking agent, who would not mach the rate. I Have to pass this cost on to my client whom recommended the hotel. I was happy with the hotel, now I will look elsewhere. So will they.
