Tanisha HC went above and beyond to make sure every detail of my stay was perfect, and it was clear she takes real pride in her work. She was knowledgeable about the hotel and the surrounding area, always ready with helpful recommendations and quick solutions. What really stood out was her attitude patient, kind, and attentive without ever feeling forced or scripted. She made me feel valued as a guest, not just another reservation.

Exceptional Experience beyond words.
Pros:

I’ve been a regular at Spanish Court Hotel for over 15 years, mainly because of its convenient location and consistently comfortable atmosphere. I often use the restaurant for meetings, dining, or simply to unwind, and it has always been a reliable go-to space for both business and relaxation.
Recently, I interacted with Tanisha on two to three occasions, and her warmth and personable nature truly stood out. Each interaction was pleasant and consistent, which made the experience even more enjoyable. It’s always refreshing to encounter staff who genuinely make you feel welcome.
Overall, the staff at Spanish Court are courteous and professional, and the environment remains one I’m happy to return to time and time again. A solid, dependable spot in Kingston that continues to deliver quality service.

Outstanding service Tanisha HC & Francine made our stay. S Hotel a gem in the heart of Kingston, exceptional service.
Pros:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My wife and I stayed at S Hotel for 5 nights and it honestly feels like a gem in the middle of Kingston. From the moment we arrived, the customer service was standout, warm, professional, and genuinely attentive.

A special thank you to Tanisha HC, she has an infectious smile and such positive energy that you can’t help but feel uplifted by it. She made us feel welcome every single day and is a real credit to the hotel. Francine also deserves a big mention for being consistently helpful, friendly, and on point.

The hotel itself is a modern boutique spa style hotel, beautifully maintained, with multiple pools to choose from. Our room was cleaned immaculately and always felt fresh, modern, and comfortable.

If you’re looking for a stylish place to stay in Kingston with service that truly makes a difference, we’d absolutely recommend S Hotel and we’ll definitely be back.

Fabulous!
Pros:

I had the most wonderful stay at Spanish court. The staff were awesome especially Romario and Tanisha HC. The food was incredible! And the ambience is great. It was great to stay in a place that had a pool and a gym. I didn’t get to use the spa, but next time I’ll be straight in there! It’s in a wonderful location in New Kingston and easily accessible to everywhere. Highly recommend!

Best vacation at S Hotel Kingston
Pros:

Great ambiance. Staff are top tier, always helpful and attentive. Special mentions to Taniesha W, Phillip the Bellman, Moya from the front desk and Tanisha HC who is always warm and welcoming. My wife and I felt at home and really very special. We were booked to stay 4 days and ended up staying for 10 days. That is to show how special S Hotel and its team members are to us. Clock that "T". Truly an amazing experience.

Nourished
Pros:

Come to the S Hotel in Kingston - don’t think twice about it. The staff at S Hotel has been phenomenal. From the beginning of my trip, the staff went gone above and beyond to ensure everything came with ease. The continental breakfast is fantastic, the dinner is delicious, and the cafe was a beautiful touch to convene with friends. I want to highlight the following individuals who lived my spirits during my stay:
- Nicolette (manager at the bar) thank you for your generosity, your light and amazing recommendation (the curry shrimp was
🤌🏾)
- Sheldon made the best ice coffee and brought all the vibes in the curation process
- Owen (breakfast) operates with efficiency and care
- Janice (breakfast) no ask was to small or too big ans thank you for fulfilling all of my foodie dreams
- Tanisha HC (breakfast) is the orchestrator, the musical conductor of this hospitality group making sure everyone is in sync, on beat, and still creates room for everyone to be heard and felt.

Thank you to the S Hotel staff for the experience and I’ll definitely be back again!
