Guest Reviews
- Brown (10/5): - So accommodating and friendly. Very good at responding to questions and super relaxing place to stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. I'll be back. Nothing. It's a walk out of the town but taxis are good.
- Luc (10/5): -
- Sam (10/5): Home from home feel. Breakfast. Parking permit. Helpful owners. Clean and comfy - Home from home feel. Breakfast. Parking permit. Helpful owners. Clean and comfy Nothing
- Christine (8/5): -
- Krawczyk (10/5): -
- Carmen (10/5): -
- MELANIE (7/5): Un accueil chaleureux et de jolies chambres, bien équipée. - Petit déjeuné agréable et copieux
Karen a été de très bon conseil pour nos visites.
Pas de parking à proximité, mais Karen nous donne un document pour pouvoir se garer gratuitement, à un parking qui était environ 700 m à pied. La chambre n’est pas grande, mais elle est bien pensée et bien équipée
Pas de rideau occultants, dommage
- Michael (10/5): -
- Rosie (9/5): -
- Kevin (9/5): very happy thanks - very clean and tidy rooms very good food. Good location very happy
- Tigerlilly77 (8/5): - Hosts were lovely,
Room was lovely,
Very good breakfast, lots of choice.
B&B was close to the beach, short walking distance to this centre of Weymouth. My personal preference is flexibility to have breakfast when I'm ready, in the morning, as this can change daily.
I would prefer not to be given an allocated time slot to start breakfast, but I understand why it's necessary for some smaller businesses.
- Egbert_de_Pauw (9/5): Warm and welcome comfortable mid week stay. - Just a lovely small room with a nice comfortable bed. The guest house is close to everything you need and parking is not a problem at the car park for which they provide a permit. Although we really liked the breakfast, the only complaint I can have is that the black pudding was a little over cooked. However this is of course more of a personal preference than a real complaint.
- Tracey Jeremiah (10/5): -
- Janet (10/5): Everything you need and highly recommend - Absolutely everything you need is provided at a reasonable rate too. Lovely quirky style, great breakfast cooked really well and nice clean hot shower.
Nothing negative to say! See above! Nothing at all, it was great.
- Colline (10/5): Perfectly located for a visit to bovington tank museum - Comfortable no nonesence safe and secure quiet though well positioned for restaurants bars etc
Breakfast was well catered for with tasty ingredients no request was denied

The attention to detail was great and the facilities were charming, with a fresh breakfast made to my request. I will be back. Very comfortable bed and room packed with quirky arts and crafts and a very comfortable bed. The shower was a bit temperamental to set to desired temperature, but tbh, I'm being very picky. It's a great hotel.

The breakfast was excellent and well presented.
Karen is a great host. She put a birthday banner on my door when she realised it was my birthday, a very thoughtful touch.
Would stay again if we visit Weymouth again. There is some residue noise travel expected from other bedrooms due to the age of the house but it is very manageable.
- G (10/5): Séjour parfait, tout était impeccable du début à la fin. - Super séjour. Le logement est impeccable, propre et parfaitement conforme à la description. Emplacement idéal, calme et proche de tout. L’hôte est réactif, accueillant et très professionnel. Tout est prévu pour un confort optimal. Je recommande sans hésiter et y reviendrai avec plaisir. Rien, tout était parfait.

It’s spotlessly clean, fantastic decor inside, a few minutes walk to everything you need, if you’re going to Weymouth, this IS the place to be. We’ll find an excuse just to go back to see them again honestly, book it!

- Julien (9/5): -
- Alison (10/5): Perfect and would stay at Kelston Guest House again - We liked everything about Kelston Guest House, right from the lovely welcome from Karen.

The location was perfect. There was nothing we didn't like.
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely property, very clean and tidy, rooms are done beautifully and all unique decor… very close to beach and town all within walking distance. karen and Martin (hosts) are such lovely and welcoming people… nothing is too much for them and helped us with everything, they both made our stay with them lovely!

- lee (10/5): -
- Gabriele (7/5): -
- Stuart (10/5): The Kelston is a lovely, clean guest house and we hope we can stay with Karen and Martin again. - The breakfast was very yummy. The location is perfect just a couple of minutes from the beach in a quiet side street and only about 10 minutes into the centre of Weymouth. Nothing.
- Lisa (8/5): - Good breakfast. Close to the sea. Having to park in the church.
- Debbie (10/5): Great stay, would definitely recommend! - The guest house was clean, homely and the perfect base to explore the area. It had all the comforts of home and lots of little extra touches (the mints went down a treat!). It was nice to return to our room each day to find it had been refreshed and the complimentary extras had been topped up. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. The host Karen was lovely and very friendly, being a local all her life,she had lots of knowledge of the area so let us know of events happening and pointed us in the right direction to explore the surrounding areas. The guest house is incredibly close to the beach and after a long day of paddling in the sea, Karen was more than happy to store our sandy buckets and hang out our wet clothes/towels on their washing line, which were then returned to us neatly folded! There was lots of choice for breakfast and it was freshly prepared and at the table within minutes due to having a time slot so no waiting around. Overall an excellent stay and just what you want for a short break. Will definitely recommend!
- Anna (10/5): If you’re visiting Weymouth, STAY HERE! - Comfortable bed, thoughtfully equipped and beautifully decorated room, excellent breakfast and very helpful owner.
- Emily (9/5): - The room was lovely, with all the extras.
- James (10/5): Home from Home - We felt sad when we left. I feel that is the biggest compliment you can give to a hotel. Karen and Martin were superb hosts and it was great to chat to the other guests at breakfast, some of which have been returning for the past 14 years which can only go even further to justify what a lovely place to stay Kelston is. We'll certainly come back to Weymouth and we wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. Kelston Guest House is an absolute gem of a hotel in the perfect location 10/10
- Maja (10/5): - Dieses B&B wird von Karen und Martin mit so viel Liebe geführt, dass man sich einfach nur wohlfühlen kann!
Man wird jeden Morgen mit einem hervorragenden und gesunden Frühstück empfangen, und direkt mit wertvollen Tipps zu Ausflugszielen und Restaurants versorgt. Das Haus ist bunt und fröhlich eingerichtet, das Zimmer war sehr gemütlich, und es ist alles da was man braucht. Dankeschön!
