Shirley Retreat Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time im coming to Shirley Retreat, customer service is so nice,breakfast is so delicious, rooms always clean,"

The Courtleigh Hotel and Suites

8/10 Good

"Great place to relax and get some work done! Food is also quite tasty both breakfast and dinner from the menu at the restaurant."

Christar Villas Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff was very attentive and ready to help at any time. The reception area looks modern, though the rest of the hotel is a bit less so. My room was spacious and featured a kitchenette with a fridge at the entrance; however, a bottle of water would have been a welcome touch. The room's furnishings were in good condition but didn't quite match the style of the reception area. It was a good experience, but I prefer more modern hotels."

R Hotel Kingston

"Located in New Kingston, close to everything needed for a business trip to Kingston. Comfortable and practical room; there is a rooftop restaurant—be sure to try the Jamaican specialties, especially the Jerk. Attentive staff throughout; the receptionist was very helpful. Recommended."
