We often stay at the Dryburgh Abbey Hotel because of its warm and friendly welcome. The staff are professional and go the extra mile to make a comfortable, happy, friendly atmosphere. The hotel surroundings are naturally very attractive and peaceful with views of the river and Abbey.

Location was perfect for us. It felt remote but was still only a short drive to the village. Visited local areas and easily caught the train to Edinburgh. The staff were friendly and approachable and the room very comfortable. We would consider staying again.

Beautiful character building - with a little more attention to detail could be excellent. Lovely rooms but would be better if bathroom had full instead of part renovation. Most staff friendly- some if receptionists could be much more so! Left today with not so much as did you enjoy your stay, goodbye or have a good journey!
