About Us
Welcome to Kolbe House - Polish Care Home, Established in 1962
Kolbe House is a residential care home with a proud history dating back to the 1960s, located in the London borough of Ealing.

What Our Residents and Families Say
"Dear Angels at Kolbe House, from the bottom of my heart, my family and I would like to thank you for the wonderful care, kindness, and support you gave me following my operation and throughout my recovery. Your compassion, empathy, and dedication during such a difficult time were an invaluable comfort to me. Kolbe House is a truly magical place. I love you all and will take these precious memories with me."
"I am extremely pleased with the care provided by the staff at Kolbe House for my aunt. All her needs are met with great attention and respect. There is excellent cooperation with her local GP and I am kept fully informed about any medical matters concerning her health.
As I work full-time, the staff are always willing to accompany my aunt to medical appointments, for which I am deeply grateful. Every member of the team is professional, efficient, kind, and genuinely dedicated to the residents' wellbeing.
Kolbe House is maintained to an exceptionally high standard of cleanliness. My aunt is always well cared for, clean, appropriately dressed, and carefully monitored from a medical perspective. Most importantly, she is happy living at Kolbe House. I am sincerely grateful to the entire team for the outstanding care they provide."
"The staff are absolutely wonderful. They are kind, highly skilled, and deeply respectful of each resident’s individual needs. Family and friends are always warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. I am delighted that my mother has found a comfortable, safe, and friendly home at Kolbe House."
