Excellent accommodation for a 3 day stopover in Edinburgh. Ian and Alan were exceptional hosts. They really tried to make our stay comfortable. The breakfast was amazing and the petite room was perfect. Very handy to CBD without being right in it. Bus at front door or an easy 15 min walk to city.

Einfach perfekt und charmant

Ich habe zwei Nächte in Kew House verbracht und war völlig begeistert. So viel Charme an Seite des Hauses und der Gastgebern hätte ich nicht erwartet. Alles hier wird mit viel liebe und Professionalität gemacht. Mein Zimmer war klein aber fein und ich habe mich total wohl gefühlt. Anbindung zum Flughafen mit City 100 Bus einfach Perfect und genauso sind es von hier 4 Busstationen zu Princess Street, oder ihr könnt 15 min zu Fuß laufen. Das willkommen von Alan war super nett und das Frühstück Service einfach großartig. Gerne beim nächstem Besuch von Edinburg wieder hier.

Very convenient to the bus lines and also for walk

Ian and Alan were wonderful hosts. They helped us out in several small ways such as loaning us converters for our iPhones, giving us change for the bus, giving us great tips on sightseeing, etc. The breakfast was outstanding! The rooms were spotless! We would definitely recommend Kew House to anyone visiting Edinburgh!

Pleasant Guest House, Close to Rolls-Royce Dealer

Kew House was not what we were expecting; it was better. The accommodation was clean and well-equipped (we liked having laundry facilities particularly); our host was loquacious but genial and helpful; the neighbourhood was pleasant and safe; transportation connections were excellent. A good place if you plan to stay for several days.

Nice People / Nice Place / Very Comfy Bed! ;-)

We stayed at Kew House for one night during white-out conditions in February 2018 and were very well looked after from the moment we arrived. The personal touch even extended to helping us clear the car of snow in the morning to get us safely on our way again. Thank you!
