I loved the book corner, the cute window, the common areas to have breakfast and read, the thoughtfulness of using warm toned bedside lamps and not to forget, the private bathroom

Our host, Louise was very helpful and friendly, since we had a problem with our hired car. She offered us even her mobile to contact the car rental company. Each day she gave us a new bag with some snacks and tee and coffee bags. The room was clean, nice bathroom and the beds were comfortable. Everything well maintained. We had the superior double room on the backside, very noise free room. The only shortcoming, the room was a bit small as usual in UK. 14 m2 is not that much 😉. So, if you need more space, book the “Superior double or two bedrooms”. On the backside of the guest house, you can park your car, enough space, just be carefully driving your car through the somewhat tight entryway. So, all in all we were very satisfied.

Absolutely wonderful stay! The host was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The location is perfect - just a pleasant 20-minute walk to the city center. The accommodation was spotlessly clean throughout. We were particularly impressed by the host's friendliness and genuine hospitality. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with a personal touch!

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.
