“The Walper's historic charm”
The Walper Hotel, Part of Jdv by Hyatt is a characterful downtown Kitchener hotel near the GO station and market — clean well-stocked rooms, a Nespresso machine, a tasty omelette breakfast, a loved third-floor patio, and a helpful desk that supplied a heater and kettle on request. Caveats though: a severe report cites a deposit never refunded after a month with no resolution; the attached restaurant is understaffed and mediocre (a forty-minute basic breakfast); parking sits in a next-door garage with no direct access; the air conditioning ran weak; and bathroom water stains went uncleaned.
