The Kingsley Inn is Deserving of the Name

This hotel was absolutely wonderful! The bed was comfy and the shower was great. Above that, it was beautiful inside. They had given away our economy rooms by accident but graciously upgraded our room to a suite at no extra cost. The decor took you back to Victorian times. Attention to detail was evident. Stay here! You will love it! We did.

Beautiful Victorian Inn

Wonderful victorian ambience, beautiful view of the Mississippi River. Lots of trains across the street, but white noise machine made sleeping easy, comfy bed, too.

Kingsley Inn

Pros: First off, it has been beautifully restored. Wonderful antiques, elegant rooms; very comfortable.
What a marvelous week-end, visiting a college friend and staying at the Kingsley Inn. It was such an enjoyable experience, I hated to leave. My room was beautiful, the staff so helpful (especially Tim) and I could not have asked for more. The Atlas restaurant adjacent to the Kingsley Inn was a great place to eat.
