Inns in Scottish Borders

"Was warmly again grounds were full of daffodils in bloom"

"Very nice hotel, well situated and friendly staff. Would certainly return."

"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."

"Great for a family break"

"Everything was spor on. Staff were excellent. Food was good. "

"We really enjoyed our time at The Home Arms. The location was just amazing! The host was warm and welcoming, and the place was spotless and well cared for. The traditional English breakfast was really tasty. The only minor point is that the mattresses felt a bit too soft for our liking, as we’re more used to firmer support. It might be something to consider improving. All in all, we had a wonderful experience and would gladly come back."

"Clean room yummy food huge car park"

"Quiet riverside location and convenient for exploring the area around Melrose. Grand old building with plenty of character. Great breakfast with fine views and tasty food"

"I found returning here after 15 years to be a sad form of nostalgia. We used to come here in the late 90's as a large family group and have so many fond memories of this place. We remember having a grand evening dining experience with a man in a kilt waiting for us at the top of the grand staircase, and adults dressing in their fine clothes for the evening meal while children would eat in the Bannockburn room. Things have changed, and while I accept there is a need to modernise things, the whole soul of this place has gone now. The state of disrepair of the property is very obvious, but what was sad is that I felt some of the repairs would be very simple to do. We paid just under £300 for our rooms and feel this was completely out of line with the experience. Our balcony which was 2 floors up was literally crumbling apart and had caution tape on it to suggest 'don't lean here'. This is completely unacceptable for a room at this price. The old fashioned but classy feel of the rooms have been replaced with a soulless modern chich vibe and it was all just quite depressing. One of the ceiling lights in my room wasn't even working and the room felt bare with two cheap sofas stuck in the middle to fill the space. There was peeling paint work and rotten wood everywhere and a general sense of 'we don't care anymore'. At 10pm my room was freezing. I called 3 times and went in person to reception to resolve this. The heating never came on and I slept the night COLD."
