Elegant and awesome wedding experience

Mother-of-the-Bride Jul 13, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Our family of eleven people came to Ann Arbor for a family member's wedding. The Kensington Court was a superb setting for ... the reception. The decor was elegant. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Their service was exemplary. The wedding couple had hired a wedding planner, but had much better service from the hotel's wedding coordinator. She was much more helpful and knowledgeable than the wedding planner that was hired. The food at the reception was gourmet, hot, and delicious.

annoying manager

retired pilot Jun 27, 2009

I asked the front desk if they had a guest services book, I'd never seen a hotel that didn't and thought my room not having ... one was probably an oversight. The front desk employees were all very polite except for one lady who I think was a supervisor, seemed very annoyed by my question. I stayed one day longer than I had originally booked on Orbitz and when I checked they had jacked my rate up almost double the Orbitz rate and over thirty dollars above their internet rate. On a positive note, the restaurant food was good and very reasonably priced. The waitress, [...] sp? was very friendly and professional.

Weekend Traveler Jun 7, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

After reading some of the negative reviews we were worried we had made a big mistake choosing the Kensington. However, it ... turns out our stay was just great. We were in town for business/pleasure. We got a good deal on Orbitz for a room on the "Executive Wing". It was Very quiet and we were delighted to find Complimentary Beverages in our in-room fridge. We also took full advantage of the complimentary wine and snacks in the evenings and the continental breakfast was just great. We didn't try the restaurant. We will definitely be coming back next time we are in town.

We were in Ann Arbor to visit our first great gand child. We lived in the area for about 20 years ago about 20 years ago but ... visit the area frequently. It was our first stay, but not the last, at the Kensington. Very pleasant, quiet and clean. We had other plans so we did not use any of the facilities. Hotel is near the mall, not far from the stadium, and a bunch of other facilities. Pricing was very competitive.
