Housing and Ancillary Services has operated residence buildings as summer accommodations for 30 years, but for the first time last year offered an upgraded product in David C. Smith House. Building on that success, the operation has expanded to include Brant House. Both residence buildings opened in the fall of 2015.

鈥淎s the Summer Kingston tourism market continues to grow, our accommodation product fulfills the increased demand in the Kingston summer marketplace," says Nicole Braatz, Manager, Sales and Marketing, Queen鈥檚 Housing and Hospitality Services. "Offering a competitive priced product and a convenient location, close to downtown and other attractions is well received by those who stay with us."

Visitors can rent a two-bedroom, air-conditioned unit that includes a private washroom. Each bedroom has one extra-long double bed, flat screen television and mini-fridge. Complimentary WiFi is included in the package.

There is a common room on each floor and each building offers a lobby computer business centre and 24-hour front desk access.

Queen鈥檚 accommodations are ideal for on-campus conferences, sports teams, weddings, long-term and hospital stays as well as casual guests.
