I do not find the kettle and even tea and coffee in the room at St Regis DC. They have a fridge.
I was staying at Sheraton Tribeca which did not have the fridge. Westin Harborfront has a fridge which cannot be used when I stayed there 2 years ago and I was told they were about to remove it from the room.
Courtyard Toronto also no fridge. They told me there are select service hotel.
I never see any of these brands in Asia does not have fridge.
