Having visited the restaurant on a few occasions over many years, it has always been a dream of my husbands to stay over night at Jamisons. Room 4 looking down the valley forefilled the dream? The dinner bed and breakfast option represents a value for money deal and the food quality as always was excellent Barry is the matrade and... More

My husband and I happened upon the Jamison House after it was booked for us by the tourist bureau at Echo Point and we were thrilled with their choice. Not only is this beautiful little property located with sweeping views of the valley, it is quaint, charming and cozy, and we stayed even longer than planned. Our room was fabulous... More

Clean, airy, spacious rooms overlooking the stunning Blue Mountains. Friendly, helpful staff who are present but provide space to guests. Comfortable sitting room with enormous veranda with tables for (self-catered) breakfast. Food for breakfast delivered daily, fresh to each room. Wonderful French restaurant with fabulous wine list on ground floor. Sound perfect? It is. We booked into the Jamison for... More

Spent a weekend in this guesthouse last month with our young daughter (2 years-old) and we had a nice stay even if the weather was not nice (very very misty). The people wre nice, the dinner was good and the location perfect on the outskirt of Katoomba. Place to be recommended for a weekend.

We only stayed a night here, but thought the rooms were charming, good value for money, and loved that we could have a wonderful French Meal downstairs in the evening. Very clean, but we had difficulty operating the TV in our room, and working the egg cooker for our breakfast next morning took some doing!

Well what can I say... Firstly I think the owners should rename this establishment the "Smoke House" because they clearly are still living in the 19th century and not savvy to the laws in Australia and still allow smoking inside the enclosed walls of their premises. This is copied straight from the information book inside each room of the "Smoke... More

I would have loved the chance to review this guest house and restaurant but we were abruptly, rudely and dismissively bumped from our accommodation (booked well ahead) as we approached our destination. A ruined weekend after a long journey. Don't risk it. I never will again.

I have just spent five nights at the Jamison House while travelling around Australia. It is a bit quirky. The location for walking is excellent and there is a wonderful view of the mountains from the guest verandah where you can take your breakfast or have coffee or a cup of tea. There is plenty of nice teas to choose... More

Having been quiet a few times over the last 10 years and consistently singing the praises of this establishment, it is with great regret i find myself writing this review. I was taken aback by the gruff manor my enquiry was handled, but i chalked this up to being a local and the call being close to the beginning of... More

A great bed and breakfast with a beautiful view and a good location. The rooms were beautiful, and matched the decor of the restaurant. The rooms were very comfuratble and a good size- had a couch and table and chairs. The common room was lovely, warm and cosy. With a fire place, books and games. Loved the do it yourself... More
