  • The Kensington – Hastings, Ne Description

    For nearly 75 nears, the Clarke Hotel stood as Hastings’ premier destination for social events. After a full renovation in 1987, the Clarke was transformed into The Kensington. And today, the sociable atmosphere lives on—with warm, friendly faces and a truly remarkable approach to assisted living.

    The Kensington is conveniently located in the heart of downtown Hastings—just a stroll away from shopping, banks… and everybody’s favorite cookie shop.
