We stayed for two nights after reading previous reviews and were not disappointed. Ian and Alan were excellent hosts who were very welcoming and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Rooms as previously mentioned are to a high spec, beautifully presented and spotless throughout. Lovely fresh flowers in the room and the sherry and chocolates are... More

Travelling worldwide we use tripadvisor to find new places to stay and we picked a winner this time. It's a 15min walk to Princes Street and therefore a great place to stay to visit all the sights in the city. The accomodation cannot be praised enough, it's clean and comfortable and the breakfasts are superb with a wide choice of... More

No matter what your standards are in an ideal lodging, Kew House meets them and more. For gourmets, the breakfast is gorgeous (you will read all about it in subsequent reviews - and other review sites). For hygiene "nitpickers", the place is spotless. For extroverts, Ian and Alan are fantastic conversationalists. For introverts, you will also find this place a... More

Stayed for one night as in Edinburgh for a function and was delighted with the accomodation.Room was immaculate and pristine with quality toiletries and even a mini sherry decanter. Breakfast choice was excellent and well presented and the owners were very knowledgeable and helpful with advice and directions to local attractions. The location is also good and would have no...

An excellent B&B. Spotlessly clean, well thought out and furnished rooms, brilliant position and a really good breakfast. My only (completely subjective and personal) reservation was that the bed was a bit soft, otherwise 5 star all round.

Out of season this is a great and value for money option in Edinburgh. Had we visited another time, I am sure the service and facilities would be exactly the same, but the cost might then cause me to knock a star off. That said Edinburgh can be quite expensive, especially this close to the centre (only a 15 minute... More

We chose this place on Trip Advisor because of the excellent reviews and also because we needed parking. We stayed in the separate apartment which was perfect for us (parents travelling with one adult child). There are two rooms in the apartment, one with a double bed and one with a single, which worked out perfectly for us. We were... More

I stayed for 2 nights whilst on business and I loved Kew House. Its owners Ian and Alan were delightful and helpful, everywhere was gleaming and fresh and there were little extras to make one feel welcome and at home. Breakfast was first class and I would recommend a stay to any friends or colleagues. Deborah B

Ian and Allen were tremendous hosts. The accomodations were first cabin. The breakfasts were all delicious. The conversation was priceless and outstripped any other B&B ever. True gentlemen and gracious with their recommendations of travel routes, restaurants and sites to see! If ever I return to Edinburgh, I will be staying here!!!! Thanks again . Jim H.

Welcoming and extremely good accomodation in a part of the city that is easy walking distance from the city centre. Superb breakfast with a range of options that are all served to the highest of standards. In short we'll use it again and recommend it to all our family and friends.
