Kings Bower at Katoomba

Be enchanted by the iconic Blue Mountains Art Deco features of Kings Bower, a beautifully appointed cottage just a stone’s throw from restaurants, bush walks, and world-heritage listed attractions. Relax by the slow combustion fireplace or meander through the ever-changing cold climate garden, where you can encounter native wildlife including King Parrots, Crimson Rosellas, Cockatoos, Lorikeets, and the resident Superb Lyrebird. As night falls, you might even spot George the brush-tail possum or Ringo the ringtail possum visiting the garden.

Kings Bower is furnished with charming vintage and antique furniture and offers a warm, inviting space for families and friends. The elevated back deck provides a tranquil vantage point to enjoy the garden, while the cottage’s proximity to Katoomba Train Station and local buses makes exploring the Blue Mountains effortless. With thoughtful extras such as port-a-cots, highchairs, and trundle beds available by request, Kings Bower combines comfort, charm, and a truly Australian experience for a memorable stay.

Katoomba character

This little treasure of a house is a perfect spot - a unique 1930s cottage on a quiet street, walking distance to the Katoomba town centre, catering for old and young.

A Wonderful Weekend

We've stayed at Kings Bower before, and this visit certainly didn't disappoint: a lovely, relaxed vibe, a beautiful outlook from the back deck and a location that is handy to the heart of Katoomba, whilst being at a pleasant remove. Will we return? Yes, of course!

Lovely property, great location for Katoomba activities, excellent condition

This was a terrific place to stay, comfortable and welcoming, good facilities, wi-fi excellent. Lovely back yard but the weather didn't let me spend much time there! My only concerns were (1) I tried to contact the owner/ agent by mobile a couple of times and got no response; (2) I found the cutlery in the kitchen in a very hard to spot place (hanging on the wall next to a pot-plant!) and wasted time looking for it. A tip in the written information about the house would have been helpful. But these minor things aside, very good property, highly recommended.

Katoomba

House was good, huge bath towels and plenty of power points, beds extremely comfortable, and central heating was great. BUT- there was a problem with Wi-fi. We tried every which way and no success, phoned agent. Ended up using hot spot for kids, so not sure if so TV basic. Robyn

Delightful

A delightful cottage for a cozy weekend. Fabulous heating system, plus wood fire, with an extremely well stocked kitchen. Beds were SO comfortable and linen was 5 star! Could use a little spring clean under the beds, corners of the bathroom, window sills around dining room, etc. but overall very clean. Thank you! We will definately stay again.

Weekend escape from Sydney

We loved the cottage! We were 2 couples escaping Sydney for the weekend. Extremely comfortable beds and so nice and quiet! Great that there was Netflix and it was well equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen. Excellent pressure in the shower that you wouldn’t expect necessarily in an older place. I personally loved how it was styled with all the personal touches Would definitely recommend

Our stay at Kings Bower Mountain Cottage.

We really enjoyed staying at Kings Bower Mountain Cottage. We especially loved the rambling garden (including the cascading wisteria in full bloom off the balcony), open fire and the waffle maker and felt very much at home. The beautiful birds on the balcony kept us entertained and the location was close to bushwalks and a short drive to the shops and galleries.
