Lovely hotel. Modern and lovely decor. Room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was well served and staff friendly and attentive. Parking outside hotel could be an issue if you don’t arrive early but we managed to park down the street and it wasn’t a problem. Would recommend this hotel

Exceptional stay.

We had a lovely stay at the Townhouse. The superior room was exceptionally large, with a modern cosy feel and excellent ensuite shower facility. The breakfast and evening meal food was very good too. Staff very helpful and friendly. Melrose is a lovely small town with plenty to see and do in the surrounding area.

Very easy parking on the street and in dedicated carpark opposite the hotel. Immaculate public areas, stylish and understated. Professional smart and friendly service (very different from a nearby hotel experience the preceding few nights.) Our room was beautiful and well equipped with great views over the square and main street. Great mattress and pillows (so good we were hunting for the mattress brand on checking-out.) Breakfast: excellent quality. We don’t normally eat dinner in our hotel, there’s plenty of alternatives in Melrose, but we would choose dinner here when we return. The menu is great and well priced and the dining room is beautiful. A faultless stay in a family run establishment, a lot of pride in this boutique little hotel is evident. An absolute gem in the Borders (and we’ve stayed in a lot of places.)
