Nice Find in a Nice Town

Our stop in Melrose was unplanned and at the last minute. Just looking at the hotel from the outside we knew it was going to be good. The staff were very friendly, the food delicious and the rooms very clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay again.

Delightful hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. breakfast was substantial and tasty. Hotel is in the centre of the small town and so very near the Melrose Abbey, gardens and the river. Parking was busy outside the hotel when we arrived but we could park at their sister hotel opposite which was fine
