Reception was warm & friendly. Restaurant service and food was good. Bedroom was slightly cool in middle of the night but not enough to spoil my stay. I will stay there again.

The dinner menu was poor, with only a few items in both the Starter and Main menu being what one might expect. Overall the dinner and drinks prices for what was available were on the high side especially for the time of year.If the hotel wants to attract more customers during the quiet times offer a down to earth package including food and drinks.

Beautiful location and building
The hotel itself is beautiful and my room overlooked the River Tweed…. Scenery is unbelievable and the view from the window could be on a postcard. The hotel was fairly clean, some of the decor is a little tired, but it’s an old building and modern fixtures or decoration would ruin it. The bed and pillows weren’t great, my advice would be to invest in new mattresses and supportive pillows… it was the only negative but a nights sleep is important. The food in the restaurant was lovely and the bar/wait staff were very accommodating and pleasant. I would definitely stay again and would like to come back for a short break so I can enjoy the local area, rather than rushing off to meet customers.
