8/10 Very good

Relaxing and good value break.
Wasn't sure what to expect as we dont usually stay in hotels. A very grand building if a little faded. Room was very spacious and clean. The bed was very comfortable. The shower could do with an upgrade and the collapsible plastic kettle was a bit disconcerting. Staff were excellent. Very friendly and accommodating. Evening meal was very good as was breakfast. Plenty of choice with breakfast served in a room overlooking the grounds. Overall good value if you want somewgere quiet and relaxing.

Lovely hotel
The hotel has beautiful, well maintained gardens and grounds that are alive with birds. The Tweed gracefully glides past. The hotel has recently had some investment and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Lovely old Hotel with lovely big room & bed. Could unpack and spread out! We enjoyed our stay. Beautiful breakfast room & breakfast.

8/10 Very good

Lovely setting and grand old place with the usual creaks and sound effects of an old and grand house. The staff were friendly and pretty efficient; - slightly sad we could not take the dogs down to the magnificent River Tweed running past - but presumably there would be safety concerns as well as outrage from anglers! The Abbey Ruins next door are stunning as well. Overall, we were very happy indeed

We stayed 2 nights, a traditional hotel which exceeded expectations, the hotel was grand and not what we normally use, but it was great. Some of the decorations were tired but they are working on all these areas. Beds we’re comfortable and breakfast had good choice. We attended the Kelso ram sale and it was a lovely treat.

Location beautiful, staff very pleasant, food was good, room was nice but sink did not empty very quickly, extractor fan noisy, and bed was too soft for our taste. That said overall very much enjoyed it

6/10 Good

Disappointing a grand old hotel that has seen better days.Pub style food service on plain Formica tables,no table clothes,no character . Gone have the bottles of water in the room and the toiletries,it’s all about the bottom line Lethargic staff,who took 1/2 an hour to realise they hadn’t put the table number on our food so it sat in the kitchens as no one thought to see who was without food! Pathetic

It's nice, but it's pretty rundown at this point. The breakfast is awful, but the staff are nice and helpful, and the area is great, but the hotel itself is just rundown and sad.

The property looks great and has so much character but internally the room was tired and need updating and a refresh.

A truly beautiful hotel in a wonderful country setting. We only spent one night there as part of a longer trip but we could have very easily spent a few days there exploring the surrounding countryside. If any traveller is looking for a great place to relax and forget the rest of the world for a while, we would recommend this spot.

We had a nice, quiet stay at this hotel to end our visit to Scotland. It was a very relaxing stay to end our trip. Our room was spacious, quiet, and comfortable. The Dryburgh Abbey is directly across the parking lot from the hotel. Nice views of the Abbey and the River Tweed from the hotel. We were sad to check in and walk to the Abbey just as they had closed for the evening, so we sadly weren’t able to visit it during our stay. The hotel has a small dining area and bar. I would recommend making a reservation for dinner if you are visiting.
