Top Dryburgh Abbey Hotel Reviews

Macdonald Cardrona Hotel, Golf & Spa

8/10 Good

"Macdonald's Cardrona is looking a bit tired. Pretty well maintained, though enough cut-backs to become noticeable. The staff are very good, but have no say in the fixtures. For example, the third floor is very poorly endowed with WiFi. We had to be moved to the 4th floor, where it was better. Apparently, it is a long-term problem, which you only find out if you are involved. In the bedroom, there were no bedside power sockets; one packet of biscuits for 2 people; inadequate ceiling lighting - only 1 ceiling led in the room, but there were 3 table lamps; sofas were tired; no hairdrier, until we asked for one; bring-your-own bottled water, although there were tumblers there; no bedside drawers; no body-wash for shower and bath (shampoo and conditioner, yes, and hand-wash for the pedestal sink, yes). In the restaurant, the 'hot' food for the buffet breakfast was a few degrees above tepid, which was every morning - not just once; the back-bacon for the buffet breakfast was folded over, meaning it wasn't cooked on the inside; and so on. All signs of cutting back from what Macdonalds used to be 10 or more years ago, and for which they gained a reputation. However, our stay was not spoiled. We would go again, with lower expectations."

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."

Dryburgh Abbey Hotel

8/10 Good

"Gorgeous setting Lovely "old world" Hotel."

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."

Newcastle Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"Old village pub with a great deal of charm. Excellent breakfast. Superb evening meals. Friendly and helpful staff."

Luxury Tiny Home sleeps 2 with Hot Tub and private BBQ hut

10/10 Excellent

"Our third visit to the Rowan Pod. We love the privacy the space around each lproperty gives. The pod is warm, well equipped and clean but obviously it’s not spacious. BBQ fuel is provided for the separate little “Hobbit” hut and a large fridge, microwave and games are stored in the extra shed. Hot tub under the sun or the stars is fabulous. Wild life and rare breed animals are plentiful and the table tennis addition is inspirational. Ready meals, eggs , honey and basics are available from the honesty box shop. A very special place."
