Hotel Kinsley joins Design Hotels

Kingston, N.Y.-based Hotel Kinsley has officially joined the global Design Hotels collection—a curated network of independent properties known for bold design, local connection and immersive guest experiences.

Located in Kingston's historic Stockade District, Hotel Kinsley is made up of four restored 19th-century buildings—301 Wall Street, 41 Pearl Street, 270 Fair Street, and 24 John Street—that blend original architectural charm with modern comforts. The flagship location—formerly the State Bank of New York—was designed in collaboration with Studio Robert McKinley and has a distinctive check-in experience inside the original bank vault. Vanessa Guilford of TOCCI and Aviva Blaichman led the design of the remaining buildings within the Hotel Kinsely collection, building on and evolving Studio Robert McKinley's original design concepts.

The hotel, operated by Ironwave Hospitality Management, has 42 guestrooms layered with vintage furnishings, curated artwork and luxe amenities. Several rooms include fireplaces and soaking tubs, creating an intimate retreat for guests. The property also includes Restaurant Kinsley, a seasonal New American restaurant with a cozy cocktail bar.
