The room was clean and welcoming and bright. It's furnishings were modern and new. There was a well stocked snack basket and the Tunnock's mallow on the pillow was a welcoming touch. The hotel is situated across the road from the beach and minutes away from shops and restaurants. I would gladly return for a stay in The Folly.

This is a little gem! Perfect location. So many thoughtful amenities! Love the wee fridge with fresh milk and butter! Cozy rooms with clean new bedding and soft blankets. Quiet and peaceful. View of the water and golf course. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

I had a trip starting at 06.30 in North Berwick - the hotel gave me a continental breakfast and it is in close proximity to the Scottish Seabird Centre

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Folly Hotel, my single room was small but very cosy and quiet, and the bed was so comfy! I had everything I needed. A welcoming basket of snacks is provided in your room on arrival and although cooked breakfasts aren't available you are provided with some breakfast food items in your room. I let the hotel know of my dietary requirements when booking and they very kindly provided some vegan breakfast items including instant porridge and yoghurt. My only complaint is that this was only replenished for two of the three nights I stayed there, so I had to go out for breakfast on my final day. I think there is a lounge with a TV and bar that is open some nights, but I didn't use this. Overall had a lovely stay in this ideally located hotel!

We dropped on this place at the last minute. Didn’t know what to expect. But it is warm and friendly and we absolutely loved it. So snug and comfortable, all you would need for a great night’s sleep. Looking forward to going back.

Delightful, quirky hotel. Easy self check-in. Might like more history of the place - i gather it was a fire station and the name folly and the owl connection. Always good to have stories.

The hotel was charming quaint and in a perfect location. The room was clean large and well stocked. It was a last minute decision to come to the coast of Scotland and it was a great decision.

I booked this property as somewhere within walking distance of the Fringe By The Sea festival. When I saw the online reviews, I nearly cancelled. So glad I didn't, what a little gem !! Yes it is a bit older, yes some areas are a little tired BUT, for the cost, absolute value for money. I stayed in room 7 and my friend in room 3, both single rooms. Completely spotless, really comfortable beds which felt bigger than a single, great shower and the best touch, a little fridge full of complimentary goodies, plus a goody basket (again complimentary). Lovely, helpful staff. Would I book again, in a hearbeat. If you want 4/5 star accommodation, then go and pay those prices but this was spot on for us.

After a difficult entry ( dark and couldn't see the key pad number) had to phone and was helped. The room was very warm and comfortable bathroom clean and had great shower. Think I was only resident as after getting in I saw nobody ( bit spooky) All in all was excellent value and I would go back again
