Food took a while to come out when ordered, not a lot of bar staff on so had to wait to order and get drinks, bed was pretty hard and the pillows were flat - that could be down to personal preference. Humming/buzzing intermittently in the room that we thought was aircon but wasnt, mentioned this to front desk staff.

Really good

Beautiful hotel, fantastic staff and rooms perfect for a family. Bed was extremely comfy and parking great. The only fault was the A/C was very loud but a very good stay. Would definitely return here.

Stayed here for 1 night in a family room. The room was very big, plenty of space. Double bed was huge but it was actually 2 singles joined together which was great. There were bunk beds located in the room for kids. Only idsue was for some reason we could not get any sound from the tv in the kids area which was annoying as they had to watch the other tv in our bed. We went elsewhere for dinner but breakfast was amazing, great choice of food and kept being repelnsihed. If your stayimg in Gretna I would definitely consider this hotel, its a few £ more than others in the area but in my opinion its worth it

Should have been good but wasn’t

Firstly the room we were given had a smart tv but didn’t work, it was two single mattresses put together badly and was not comfortable at all and the window frame was damaged meaning the window would not fully close meaning it was letting in cold air and we could hear the motorway quite loudly. We were eventually moved to another room which was smaller and had no smart tv, the place is a bit tired and service overall wasn’t great, it’s a shame as the reviews here are very good, our experience was not, also the food and drink prices are very high. They are advertising a refurbishment of the rooms, this should solve most issues.

Fantastic Hotel

I have stayed here a few time now, rooms are fab, heating in the room was perfect as I hate a hotel room which doesn’t have great heating. Hot chocolate, tea, coffee and biscuits and a bottle of water provided. I would highly recommend this hotels to my friends and family. Staff were lovely too.
