This hotel is beautiful...until you start looking at details. My husband and I stayed 05/23/07-05/26/07 for our first anniversary. If you plan on a relaxing place to stay to get caught up on sleep....go elsewhere! Just make sure the railroad tracks are not close. I read a review on this website before we left but I thought it wouldn't be... more

We strive to give the best service and accommodations in the region. Overlooking the Mississippi River, in downtown Fort Madison, the Kingsley Inn is located less than 9 miles from the LDS Nauvoo...

We found the Kingsley Inn to be a unique, historical, well maintained, comfortable, convienent, and a relaxing place to stay while visiting friends and family in Ft. Madison. The owner was on site making sure questions or concerns were addressed promptly. The food and service was very good. We highly recommend it if you are in the area. more

My sister and I have stayed at the Kingsley Inn at least once a year for the last six years. It was always the highlight of our trip. However when the new owners took over a couple of years ago, things have progressively lost their special touch. The new owner is cheap and very rude, the coffee is weak, and... more

We stayed at the Kingsley for three days and two nights on their "Antique Lovers" package. The facility is fantastic! Beautifully and elegantly furnished with antiques, it combined the best of a hotel stay with a bed & breakfast experience. The place was spotless, and the staff (usually the owner himself) addressed any concerns we had immediately. They were exceptionally... more

The second day of our two-night stay, the weather resulted in a power outage throughout most of the city. Our hosts provided everything possible to make sure our stay was still comfortable, which resulted in our not only enjoying the adventure but vowing to return again soon. They were gracious and friendly, and made all the difference between a disasterous... more

This hotel was more than I expected. The innkeeper was very alert to our needs and desired that we be taken care of in every way. The room was excellent and very clean and fresh. The Breakfast was excellent. I would say that this is the cleanest best hotel to stay in for a 100 square miles of Fort Madison.... more

As a traveler who frequents bed and breakfast weekly, this is one of the nicest Bed and Breakfast you could find. The rooms are all beautiful. The new owners are wonderful and very accomodating. The breakfast is fabulous and the rooms are spotless. I look forward to every visit in Fort Madison due to this wonderful experience. more

While the room and location is very nice the staff and service leaves much to be desired. They were very rude and not helpful at all in any way. The room was ruined by the terribly impolite manager. more

My second stay at the Kingsley Inn was August 7-9 and, though it seemed impossible, the Inn is even better now than it was 2 years ago. The Inn is located on historic Avenue H (formerly known as Front Street) facing the Mississippi River. The 1800's building is faithfully restored and decorated with antiques. The staff is friendly and efficient;... more
