The bed was soooo comfy! The staff were friendly and helpful. The history of the Kennedy House is one thing that drew me, and I truly enjoyed my stay. My room was right above the band downstairs, but I like music, so it was great. There is a bar/restaurant right downstairs that is super fun and delicious.

The staff were great! So friendly and welcoming. They were the best part of the stay. The over all quality of the room/ restaurant could be improved, especially considering the price. I feel what you’re paying for is the location, which is great! you can easily walk to everything with ease.

What a lovely historic building. The rooms were unique and the one we had was super spacious for three of us. The carpet could use some updating but was clean and the beds were comfortable enough. Love that this spot was a hotel/bar/restaurant as we went at the end of their season so the town was close to shutting down. Dinner was reasonable and quite tasty, service was good. Bar was nice with a big area to watch sports and you are close to all shops and the waterfront. Would definitely stay here again and can only imagine the hustle and bustle of this town during peak season!!

The desk staff were extremely friendly and answered all our questions. We loved the historical nature of the building. The room was great with a balcony overlooking the main street in the waterfront area of St. Andrew's. We also had a view of the bay. The bar area just off the lobby was very lively with both visitors to the area and locals. We enjoyed the live music.
