Kingsley Inn

The hotel and staff are all great. No complaints about them.
However, the hotel is next to train tracks. A freight train went by every 30 minutes, blowing it’s horn. Literally all night long. Almost impossible to sleep.

I’m part of the workforce building the Iowa Fertilizer Plant in Wever, IA, so I’ve been staying there every Wed. And let me say… the place it’s awesome! Hands down, the greatest hotel experience I’ve ever had. Each week I’m in a different room and they are all fantastic and unique. Friendly staff, super comfy beds & just all around a great place to stay. I will definitely miss it when I finally leave.

This place has reopened and it’s even better than it was before as they updated much of the building and still kept it’s historical ambiance. We had a wedding party stay here for the weekend and everyone was very impressed the the staff, accommodations, and the history of the building. They have excellent breakfast as well. You will not find a more accommodating staff and better place to stay in the area than the Kingsley.

The Kingsley Inn will reopen in 1^st quarter 2014. We purchased the Inn the fall and are in the process of refurbishing the building. Expect a great experience, we look forward to having all those great guests back. Jeff MacKenzie.

Wtf. I made reservations in April and they e mail today July 14 th that they won’t honor my reservation for next Saturday and for me not to call. What’s going on?

This place is AWESOME!!! This hotel is in an older building and has been remodeled almost perfectly. It has a feel of going back in time to the early 1900’s. The lobby is beautiful. As for the rooms — each room has a unique name and is decorated a little different. I know that because the rooms that are not occupied they leave the doors open for guests to take a peek.
The staff (I believe the woman also owns it) was very accommodating and friendly.
They have a parlor for sitting with a grand piano and a computer for internet access.
In the morning they serve breakfast.
The location is great too being right across the street from Fort Madison near the river and only a short walk to the downtown shopping area. The location is a blessing and a curse. The railroad goes by just across the street and it is a very popular route. In addition, train horns sound all night. After a couple nights you probably get use to it but if only for one night it’s annoying. The beauty of the hotel makes up for it but without trains it would be perfect.
