Top neighbourhoods in Kingston

Stockade District

Kingston's Stockade District transports you to colonial America with its 17th-century stone houses and historic landmarks. Wander cobblestone streets past the 1658 Senate House where New York's first government met, or explore the Old Dutch Church with its ancient cemetery. The district hosts cultural events and galleries that showcase Kingston's rich heritage, all within a pedestrian-friendly historic core. Farm-to-table restaurants and cosy taverns occupy converted colonial buildings, serving Dutch-inspired cuisine to hungry history buffs. Most attractions are within a 30-minute stroll, though those cobblestones demand sturdy shoes. Boutique B&Bs in historic homes offer authentic stays with period furnishings and personal host interaction.

Rondout

Roundout in Kingston lets you step back in time along cobblestone streets lined with 19th-century warehouses. The Hudson River Maritime Museum and Trolley Museum showcase the area's industrial past, while the waterfront buzzes with pleasure boats and kayakers. Stroll past art galleries housed in limestone buildings or catch river views from the historic lighthouse. Waterfront restaurants serve farm-to-table meals with Hudson Valley flavours in converted industrial spaces. Victorian B&Bs and boutique inns offer charming stays with period touches. The compact historic district is best explored on foot, with easy access to the creek paths and scenic river overlooks.

8/10 Good
"Staff is very friendly, it looks like a lot of people actually live here, we checked in late, the desk is manned 24 hours, which is convenient. The room is nothing special, furniture is run down, rug is gross, but bed and pillows are comfy, sheets and towels clean. TV stuck on one channel...Room is spacious though, and even with all the dogs and seeming live-ins hanging about, it was very quiet, so we could get a good rest. Breakfast is oatmeal, packaged pastries, granola bars, OJ and coffee. Convenient location at the right price for a one-night stay. On the way out I saw rooms that had vinyl flooring, and the photo online shows newer furniture. I guess we got an unrenovated room..."
