Hidden Gem - Hotel Arts Kensington

Excellent facility and beautifully updated rooms! We will definitely stay here again. The facility is located just outside of the downtown core - quick 5 minute drive from the facility. Oxbow is also a great spot for meetings and great food as well.

Hi, is there parking at the hotel? thanks

Underground, heated parking was $15 for the night. After pulling into the garage and parking, we were greeted with waters and an offer to carry our bags. For us, the secure heated parking was worth the $15.
