Our stay was amazing. The accommodation is close to the city centre (main attractions) and everyone was really nice and welcoming. The room has everything you need and it is very clean. The breakfast was very tasty. The hospitality was unreal, we even got a bag with food to go when we left for the airport as we had to leave before the breakfast started.

    Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 1,835 reviews
    The guest house was in a great location. Next to the bus station, 5 minutes away from Waverley station. Our room was clean with firm comfy beds, exactly as we requested. Murray, our host, was helpful and polite, and looked after us so well. Our room had a great view from the windows. The breakfast was lovely. The rooms were quieter than I had expected given the location.

    This was undeniably the perfect stay. Firstly, beautiful and charming house in a nice residential area not far from Edinburgh city centre (only a 15 minute bus ride or a 40 minute walk), super clean and quiet room, very comfy bed and modern bathroom with all the necessities. Secondly, breakfast was delicious, freshly cooked every morning by the owner. Last but not least, Kingsley Guest house is run by a very friendly family who made me feel at home as soon as I stepped inside. Highly recommended.
