Welcome to Widcombe House! We are located in a prime neighborhood and in walking distance to all the shops and restaurants as well as the US Embassy. We are a home away from home.
Our place is on a quiet street yet a few minutes walk to all the shopping plazas and many major attractions. There's easy access to public transportation right across the street, and we also offer free secure on site parking. We're in the Kingston 6 area and close to the Bob Marley Museum. There are also lots of restaurants (several open 24hr) within a 5-minute walk and, of course, we're happy to offer suggestions about the best places to eat, drink, visit, or just hang out! The bus runs at the end of our street and for a reasonable cost, it will take you downtown to the Jamaica Institute, National Library, National Museum in minutes or to Half Way Tree to the Transportation Center, Cross Roads. Also to the universities UWI and UTECH.
