Views of the capital are amazing from the 8th floor breakfast room. Breakfast items are adequate. Amazing eating at savannah park food court tues onwards from 18.00. This can be reached by shared taxis costing about 6 or 7 trinidadian dollars just outside the hotel and can get you in to town for all necssary connections to see the island. Pool lacks direct sunlight in the afternoon but is very deep at one end. Helpful staff.

I Really Like The Kapok Hotel

This was my second time going to the Kapok Hotel during the Christmas Season and last year was my first. I had no idea of its exact location last year but pleasantly discovered it was beside the Zoo and the Botanical Gardens this year. It seems last year I went for a walk in the wrong direction. I love the food that you can buy at this hotel, from the pizza to the grilled veggies. I did not get to have any Asian Cuisine on this trip. After booking a Superior Room last year that I found Inferior and ending up in a corner suite. This year I just booked the corner suite. I like this because it includes a full size fridge and a microwave and a few dishes... The bedroom is separate and there is a bit of musty smell that comes from the air conditioner but it was much milder than the room I was in last year. What I LOVE THE MOST about this hotel is the Breakfast Buffet that you can also take out in a box. This is such an amazing feature especially for me as I am not an early riser or eater, but I can get to the buffet get my breakfast to go and then take it to my room and rest. Also the staff that serve at breakfast are so wonderful, friendly and eager to help, they made me feel special both last year and this year. And the breakfast food is amazing. Real scrambled eggs, fresh baked good and some wonderful traditional Trini delicacies. Yes I will be back again!

Was not impressed with the service. Ask for a wake up call this morning and it didn’t happen. I could have missed my flight. That was not a good look.

Awesome staycation

Had a great time. Friendly staff. Soft bed and loved the view of the outside from my room. Room clean. The only thing is that the floors were a bit grimy.

It was a pleasant experience. The hotel has a clean and welcoming environment, with a lovely view of the city from our room that added a touch of charm to our stay. Breakfast was delightful, and even though I dined alone as my partner chose to sleep in, I enjoyed the meal and the peaceful atmosphere. The staff were friendly and approachable throughout, which added to the comfort of the stay. The only inconvenience was with the key cards. Upon arrival, only one card worked, which we didn't mind too much since it was a short stay. However, by the next morning, neither card worked. Since we were checking out after breakfast, we didn’t raise the issue with staff. Despite this minor hiccup, the overall experience was enjoyable. The cleanliness, great views, and friendly service make it a place I would happily return to in the future.

I arrived early. I was told if I wanted to pay the previous nights rate, I could check in. I declined. They offered a 10:00am check in for $100. I also declined. They said that was ok and that I could check in at noon at no extra charge. At noon I checked. No room’s available even though there had been earlier….by the time I got my room card it was 2:30. BUT, several other solo travelers checked in ahead of me, much earlier. I was promised a few more minutes, a little more time, and more excuses. I fail to understand why I was denied a room after being assured I’d get one at noon.

Charming Boutique Hotel in the Heart of Port of Spain I had the pleasure of staying at the Kapok Hotel, a quaint boutique hotel nestled in the heart of Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago. Its prime location offers easy access to popular attractions like the Magnificent 7, the beautiful botanical garden, and the vibrant Queens Park Savannah. In the evenings, the Savannah transforms into a bustling food festival, with numerous booths serving a wide variety of local cuisine. The hotel is also within walking distance to excellent restaurants, supermarkets, and other amenities. My room was immaculately clean, stylishly decorated, and provided all the necessary comforts. The free WiFi connection was reliable and efficient. If you're visiting Trinidad and Tobago, I highly recommend choosing the Kapok Hotel for your stay. Its unique blend of charm, comfort, and convenience makes it an ideal choice for travelers.
