The House is beautiful and very special. James and Olga are just lovely and so helpful, but let us have enough personal space and privacy. The bed was very comfortable, we slept like babies. We also really enjoyed the delicious breakfast.

the facility is a 10-minute walk from the strict tourist old town. in the close vicinity there is a shop, pubs, bakeries, restaurants. the facility itself is a cozy place. We were welcomed by the delectable owner, we got the keys earlier than expected. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. We highly recommend breakfast, fresh juices, compote, fruit and small snacks to choose from while we wait for the owner to personally prepare a wonderful English breakfast. in the room iron and ironing board, fridge, tea and coffee making set, hair dryer, cosmetics set. If we return to Edinburgh it will probably be Mr Tommy.

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.

Cosy guesthouse at the charming heart of Bruntsfield, an adorable part of Edinburgh. Close to small, vibrant boutiques and bars and just some minutes away from the city center.
