Kingston[1] is a small city in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is on the north shore of Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence, almost exactly halfway between Montréal and Toronto.
As the first (very short lived) capital of Canada, Kingston was originally settled in 1673 as Fort Frontenac. Today, Kingston is one of the most historic cities in Canada with numerous churches, old buildings, pictorial neighbourhoods, and 19th century fortifications. The city provide venues for nightlife such as clubbing and pubbing, and provides weekend escapes for people living in the neighboring cities of Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto. There are ample historic sites and museums to visit, as well as many lively summer events.
Kingston is the home of two universities, Queen's University and Royal Military College, and one college, St. Lawrence College. Along with tourism, these educational institutes and the students they attract provide much to the city's local economy. Kingston is also the home to a number of prisons.
Kingston is fully accessible by road, air and water. There are no scheduled connections by bus, train or air to any point on the US side from Kingston, despite its proximity (50km) to Interstate 81. However, ferry by car from the United States is possible by taking Horne's Ferry (May-October) from Cape Vincent, New York state to Wolfe Island (Ontario). By driving the short distance across Wolfe Island, you can get to downtown Kingston via the free Wolfe Island Ferry.
Buses (Coach Canada) run Toronto-Kingston-Montréal several times daily and one bus (Voyageur) visits Ottawa twice daily. Buses usually take longer from each city and will drop you off on John Counter Boulevard (a converted trucking company warehouse in an industrial park) at the north side of town. Travelers can get downtown by taxi, or by local transit (both a taxi and bus stand can be found on the bus station property, across from the Tim Horton's). By bus, the #2 Division Street travels to the downtown core every half-hour (every hour evenings and weekends).
Kingston is also served by train (Via Rail Canada). Travel times from nearby locations are as follows:
Ottawa: 2 hours
Dorval (Montréal-Trudeau): 2.5 hours
Montréal: 2.75 hours
Toronto: 2.25-2.75 hours
The station is on John Counter Boulevard at what was the western edge of town. Although it is now roughly in the centre of 'Greater Kingston', local city bus service to these points is limited (one bus may turn up once or twice an hour, with evening and weekend service rather limited). The best option for getting downtown from the train station is by taking a taxi or an uber, either of which will run you around $15. By bus, the best option is the #18 Train Station Circuit, which is timed to match most scheduled train arrivals (note that VIA trains may well run late). The #18 will deliver the traveler to the downtown core on Princess Street. The C Kingston Centre bus runs every half-hour (every hour evenings and weekends), and delivers the traveler to the Kingston Centre bus transfer point. From there, transfers are available to all points of the city. The fare is currently $3.25 one way.
Norman Rogers Municipal Airport (IATA: YGK) on Front Road, in the west part of Kingston. Scheduled connections by Air Canada are to Toronto only and this tends to be the most expensive option by far. However, it may be reasonably priced if a connection is involved (e.g. you fly Vancouver to Kingston via Toronto). There are no local city buses that reach this airport.
The Rideau Canal goes from Kingston to Ottawa. Quite a few people travel it in various pleasure craft. Kingston is also the starting point of the St Lawrence River and the eastern endpoint of the Great Lakes, a strategic position which has afforded it a key military vocation since 1673.
The Wolfe Island Ferry makes regular trips back and forth from the nearby island, landing downtown at the Wolfe Island Ferry Dock. The ferry is free, and lands in the very small town of Marysville after a short and scenic trip. If travelling by car (or bike if you can make it across the island), a connection to the United States can be made at the dock at Point Alexandria on the far side of the island via a small private ferry that lands in Cape Vincent,New York.
Kingston has a number of marinas to accommodate boaters in boats of all sizes. These include
The most interesting area in Kingston for out-of-town visitors is near the downtown core of the city, which includes Queen's University and the waterfront. As such, the "best" areas of the city are better seen on foot or by bicycle.
Taxi fare from the Kingston Bus Station and Train Station are approximately $10-15 depending on the number of passengers per car as well as luggage stowage.
Public transport by Kingston Transit [7] buses, is reliable and clean. However, it is infrequent, running at most, once every 15 minutes or half hour, depending on the route.

Visit time: 2 years to life. If 'just visiting', allow a little over an hour to tour the museum.

This building is the new centre of Applied Science (Engineering) at Queens. This 'live building' was designed to allow people to see how the building works and interact with it.
Miller Museum of Geology[12]: This is a fairly small museum, but is still interesting. Call ahead for tours.
The Museum of Health Care at Kingston[13]: A tiny museum with exhibits (and quite a lot of artifacts) related to the history of medicine. It co-sponsors a walking tour on the history of KGH for $5, but the museum itself is free. Usually not busy, since it's small and hard to find. Visit time: Depends on your level of interest in the subject -- two hours if you're really into the museum and you take the tour.
Waterfront: Kingston has a lively waterfront that, depending on the day, may afford opportunities to partake.
Thousand Island Cruise: There are boats that leave from Kingston and go downstream on the St. Lawrence river and around the Thousand Islands. The round-trip is about 3 hours. If you have a car it is better to get on the boat tours that leave from the nearby town of Gananoque, about 20 minutes northeast of Kingston, because you get to see more.
Heritage Cruise Lines: The small cruise ship MV Georgian Clipper offers 4-night, 5-day cruises from June to October in Lake Ontario, the 1000 Islands and St. Lawrence Seaway. The small cruise experience gets you up close and personal with the Islands, while providing interesting shore excursions throughout the area and luxurious dining and accommodations.
Skating:
Market Square: In 2005 the city built a new outdoor skating rink in Market Square. It's refrigerated, and the surface is conditioned by a Zamboni every couple of hours, so the surface is more regular than other outdoor rinks in the area. Hockey sticks are not allowed on this rink.
City Park (just west of downtown): Although the surface isn't as regularly conditioned as Market Square, this the place to go if you want to play hockey, since hockey isn't allowed on the Market Square rink.

White Mountain Homemade Ice Cream serves quality ice-cream that is a tad pricy, but truly is one of the best home made ice creams you will ever taste.

There is a relatively healthy pub scene in Kingston with many high quality establishments. All indoor spaces in Kingston, including pubs - are non-smoking. This extends to patios and the areas around doorways! Although this is rarely enforced around doorways, it is quite strictly enforced on patios. Most 'bars' will have some sort of receptacle for discarded cigarettes to indicate where will be polite to smoke. This receptacle may be a coffee can.
Kingston Brewing Company (KBC) is on Clarence St. near the intersection of Ontario St. As implied by its name, this pub brews its own beer and offers many seasonal beers.

The Grizzly Grill For the young at heart, or at least over 21 (not a rule, just in contrast to the younger crowd across the street) this restaurant by day turns into a rock-ish, top-40ish dance club at night. Expect it to go from empty to full between 11 and 12am for some reason.
Barcadia Bar/Arcade
The Spot 'Rougher' crowd, cheaper drinks. Near 'the hub'
The area near the downtown waterfront is the most favourable location (as many but not all activities are within walking distance) but also the most expensive by far. Accommodations range from large chain hotels with full facilities (Holiday Inn, Radisson, Sheraton, Marriott) and smaller historic properties, such as the Hotel Belvedere, to a niche market of small but upscale bed-and-breakfast style inns. There is plenty of good accommodation to be had in the downtown and waterfront area, if one is willing to pay top dollar.
The Plaza Hotel on Montreal St, as home of Kingston's only remaining stripper bar, is best avoided for accommodations as the area does attract certain undesirable elements.
Fort Henry Motel located on Highway 2 East, close to RMC and CFB kingston, From down town 5 min's drive. Clean rooms, friendly staff, clean sheets, with showers, free local phone and WI FI and very reasonable rates and friendly staff, it is worth checking out. There is a MC Donald's close by for breakfast.
Kingston's downtown area runs from the waterfront at Ontario Street one mile west/northwest to Division Street. The majority of upscale properties are in the lower (easternmost) part of downtown, near the waterfront area. Continue westward into the land of the endless used-car lots and the choices initally are limited and disappointing at best. A few of these properties (such as Howard Johnson and Super 8) have had to ban all visitors after 11PM or 12PM due to problems caused by the local riff-raff, others (such as The Knight's Inn) turn a blind eye and let them run rampant. Best to give this a miss if at all possible.
Continue further westward and there are a few hotels of better standing, starting with the Peachtree and the Best Western fireside inn among a few serving an otherwise awkwardly-located train station west/northwest of the city. The largest of these hotels is The Ambassador Hotel & Conference Centre, which offers extensive indoor athletic and recreational facilities. Others in this immediate area include a Comfort Inn (no restaurant on site) and the Lasalle (a Travelodge with full hotel facilities).
Continue further west and the selection is dominated by motels, many of them independent or low-end properties.
If you stick near the 401, and it may not make sense to do so if you want to see Kingston itself, your choices are adequate but limited. Kingston was built around the Lake Ontario and St. Lawrence River waterfront and around Princess Street (old Highway 2, as the main street in town). Unlike London, where newer development has grown around the newer highway, Highway 401 in Kingston pulls well too far north of the local urbanized area in order to cross the Rideau Canal near Kingston Mills, effectively bypassing the city entirely.
There are a few moderately-priced chains (Courtyard by Marriott, Holiday Inn Express, Days Inn, Comfort Inn, FirstCanada Inns) located amongst the endless fast-food emporiums at Division & 401 (exit 617) but nothing uniquely Kingstonian to see in this part of town. To the west is industrial park, to the east housing projects. A new outlet shopping centre is being constructed in this area.
Along the 401 in the west end of the city is a new Motel 6 hotel.
Comfort Inn Kingston 401[22], 55 Warne Crecent (@ Division Street Exit #617). This convenient location offers easy access to all major attractions in the region including: Fort Henry, Thousand Island Boat Tours, Murney Tower, Thousand Island Parkway, 1000 Charity Casino, Queen's University and Royal Military College.
Fort Henry motel Kingston 401 and Hwy 15 exit
Fort Henry Motel located on Highway 2 East, close to RMC and CFB Kingston, From down town 5 min's drive. Clean rooms, friendly staff, clean sheets, with showers, free local phone and WI FI and very reasonable rates and friendly staff, it is worth checking out. There is a MC Donald's close by for breakfast.
Midway Country Motel[23], 3206 Highway 2, Barriefield (401 exit 632). Five-room motel and cabins on Hwy 2 between Joyceville and Middle Roads. In-ground pool, colour TV, near Grass Creek Park and St. Lawrence River. A home away from home when visiting Fort Henry, the 1000 Islands and the Kingston-Gananoque area.
There are several low-priced (or at least under-$100) motels on the old Highway 2 as it comes in from the west of the city, but the choices do seem to be limited to the low-end of the market with many small independent operators. Almost all of these stretch out along the one road, continuing well into suburbia.
Comfort Inn Kingston Midtown[24], 1454 Princess St.(Hwy. 2). This convenient location is only 5 min from downtown and resides on highway #2 which provides a very scenic and historic alternative to highway #401.
Kingston is separated from CFB Kingston and Old Fort Henry in the east by the Cataraqui River and Rideau Canal. The city itself is west. There are a few small motels along the old 2 and 15 highways intended primarily to serve visitors to the Fort, but these tend to be low-end in price and quality.
Fort Henry Motel at 848 Highway 2 East [25], close to RMC & CFB and 5 min's to down town.
Located on Highway 2 East, close to RMC and CFB Kingston, From down town 5 min's drive. Clean rooms, friendly staff, clean sheets, with showers, free local phone and WI FI and very reasonable rates and friendly staff, it is worth checking out. There is a MC Donald's close by for breakfast.
Continue 30 km further east into Gananoque, a town of just over 5000 people near the centre of the Thousand Islands region, and a wider selection (ranging from small B&B's to hotel/motel chains) becomes available.
Little Cataraqui Creek Conservation Area: This conservation area is north of the 401, so you'll need a car (or bike) to get there from downtown. There is a small fee to enter the park. In the summer, you can go hiking, canoeing or kayaking. In the winter, you can go snowshoeing, cross country skiing, or skate on the pond. They offer rentals and lessons for many of these activities.
Wolfe Island, [26]. Ferries [27] from Kingston to Wolfe island are free and run hourly. Cycling on Wolfe Island is much less hectic than in Kingston proper. George Pyke's Strawberry farm is a good destination (~25 km round trip from ferry) in late June, and can easily make for a day long trip. Contra dancing happens regularly throughout the year either at Wolfe Island town hall, or some Kingston location.
Fruition Berry Farm, [28]. Kingston's favourite strawberry farm is just off Hwy 15 (at Hughes Road) just five miles north of the 401. Open from June to October, weather and crop conditions permitting, Fruition Berry Farm offers pick-your-own Strawberries, Raspberries, Peas, Beans and fall Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch! Enjoy a picnic, nature walk or childrens' playground in a beautiful country setting.
Frontenac Provincial Park is just 30 minutes drive from Kingston central and provides opportunities for walking and picnicking.
