Dryburgh Abbey Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice clean spacious rooms good ambience Nice surroundings"

Newcastle Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely staff and fantastic Scottish breakfast"

The Border Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff was more than helpful, food was superb, room was cosy, because I couldn’t have breakfast they put me up a packed lunch. More than happy to stay again."

Schloss Roxburghe Golf Resort, Part of Destination by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"Booking restaurant reservations for more than six people is via an automated telephone system which isn’t managed. Very difficult to book a table. Book on line should provide a larger table capacity selection or provide an email to request a table for larger parties not the telephone system."

George and Abbotsford Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was the perfect place for me and my dog. We got a nice clean room, very friendly staff, and two very good meals. Everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. I’m considering coming back to the town just to come back to the hotel."

The Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A very friendly lady on reception (and at breakfast). Nice room and very central location."

Roxburghe Cottages, Part of Destination by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"Pet friendly hotel and cottages. Plenty of areas to walk around the grounds. In the hotel there is a pet friendly bar and restaurant area. The clubhouse has food too. There is a small shop, lovely pastries. The only issue is no welcome pack with a map of the grounds, how to work the hob, cooker and heating. Even the staff didn’t know how to work the heaters! One out of three worked after a google search. However this will not stop us going back. Staff were friendly and helpful."

The Townhouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very comfortable stay at the Townhouse in this picturesque town. The bedrooms were lovely, beds and bed linens were sumptuous. And we enjoyed the dinner and large breakfast. We would definitley stay again."

Mansfield House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very helpful and friendly would recommend to everyone breakfast was amazing x"
