Beds very comfortable- we had a great roomy room but others paying same had very small rooms w small bathrooms.. Great rain shower.. issue checking in as rooms were not available till well after 3 pm but Carabana was on so could have affected cleaning of rooms. Staff were very friendly and apologetic. Dining room in basement- poor signage to get there and totally understaffed although staff very nice.. .

The Walper Hotel is a nice hotel to stay at when visiting KW. We used it as a convenient jump point to go to Stratford. My main recommendation in favour of choosing Walper is the staff: they sent a welcome message telling us about the parking options, their check-in was very welcoming and helpful. The room was comfortable, well appointed. I would recommend that their TV offerings include some standard channels and options so that visitors don't have to log into their own apps. It took us 15 minutes to log in through the hotel's options because we didn't have certain app loaded on our devices. Overall, a pleasant stay and I would still recommend people to stay here.

The Walper was very welcoming and very clean. One thing that I loved was how quiet it was. I was never awoken nor disturbed at all.
