Kevin Guest House

Kevin Guest House is America's First Healthcare Hospitality House, setting the standard for compassionate guest care. Our mission is to provide a comfortable and supportive home away from home for patients and their families traveling for medical care. We are located in the heart of the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus comprised of four buildings on Ellicott Street within minutes of Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Buffalo General Medical Center and the John R. Oishei Children's Hospital. Yet we serve patients and their caregivers traveling for medical care along with local families needing the best environment for their medical treatment. We are committed to never turn a family away needing to be close to their care, serve patients of any age, disease or local area healthcare facility including ECMC, VA Buffalo and facilities supporting Catholic Health and Kaleida Health. We request a donation of $25 a night per person per night but we welcome to discuss lodging donation exemptions with all guests due to financial harship. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, home-like atmosphere so patients can worry less about their finances and focus on their recovery by providing support for those experiencing difficulties because of health issues of a loved one or themselves.
