The room was a good size. It was nice and warm. We were out the back so it was quiet. There are a few stairs and steps as it's an old quirky building... we were on the first floor. The shower was good, WiFi good, tea and coffee hospitality tray. Linen and towels nice and fresh and good quality. The staff were all very pleasant and courteous. The bar had a good selection of drinks and good food.... plenty of choice of bar food and full meals at good prices. Breakfast was lovely. Freshly cooked so there was a wait but was worth it. Good value too. Great to have a car park too in the town centre. All in all good value for the price we paid for a weekend in Melrose.

We had a nice stay while doing the Borders Abbeys Way, beds were comfortable, staff were very friendly. Breakfast was plentiful with lots of options and we also had dinner in the restaurant. The bar was a meeting place for locals which gave it a nice community atmosphere.

Exceptionally clean and fresh-smelling hotel. It's a quirky place that's strangely charming. I really liked it and will be back.

Not luxurious but full value for money. Single room had a decent bit of space. It was clean and had all I needed for an overnight stay. Nice hot shower and grand view of the Eildons. Reception staff were friendly and explained the process for late night hotel access very clearly. Would definitely use again.

Excellent location and wonderful staff!!! Kailee, Graham, and Cheryl were just a few names of hotel staff that were absolutely above and beyond helpful and friendly! Everyone i encountered was so kind during my week long stay. I loved the food in the hotel restaurant, especially the custard! LoL I ordered extra every chance I could! I didn't try Haggis, lol, but the steak, fish, macaroni, and BLT dishes I did try. All were delicious! The hotel room was roomy for a single. Very comfy bed. No microwave or fridge though. Smallish shower, but worked great. My only pain point was structural and based on my limited mobility, I wish there was an elevator. Also I didn't realize when booking first floor meant still had to go upstairs. Many stairs to and from rooms and out of hotel or to dining room. But if no mobility issues, you will not have a problem. Beautiful hotel! And bus stop is just down a few buildings, very close. Buses super nice and quick. Very inexpensive to get to nearby attractions or just enjoy countryside! Lovely, diverse shops and museums walking nearby! Just loved this stay!

Margaret • Couple Trip

We had a very warm informative welcome. The room was at the back which helped it be quieter when the private parties could be loud when they were on in the function room. It looks as if some updating is happening and needs new window frames and closers. The bed was comfy. Hospitality tray was great. In the bar the staff were great. You were served quickly and they kept the bar tidy. They were very friendly. We had bar sharing plate snack which was amazing. We didn’t have breakfast as not breakfast eaters so can’t comment about that. We loved our stay and everything about the hotel.

A very central big old hotel with nice staff. The pub had excellent food. Unfortunately there was a gang of golfer's too noisy to here the singer that preformed.
