Top Borthwick Castle Hotel Reviews

Melville Castle

10/10 Excellent

"The staff went above and beyond,everyone from the front desk,servers and cleaning staff. The food both breakfast and dinner was very delicious. I can't say enough,plus you're staying in a castle! The grounds too,stand and imagine years gone by and the history,magical!"

Carberry Tower Mansion House and Estate

8/10 Good

"A beautiful,atmospheric place to stay,giving a sense of what living in a historic Scottish country house would be like-not least how chilly it can be in the early autumn before the fires would be lit. Our stay was very enjoyable, helped by the efficient and pleasant staff. Our room was comfortable if a little out of the way up in the roof space but we would have liked more lamps, more hooks and shelves for toiletries and we did not need the large green light pointing the way out to the corridor and safety. Excellent breakfast(including haggis). Lovely grounds and building with a great library,music room,whisky bar to explore."

Chestnut Cottage - a charming traditional stone cottage with 2 bedrooms on Arniston Estate

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage was cozy and welcoming. The beds were comfortable. The showers were hot and the kitchen was very user-friendly. Henrietta, the host was helpful & knowledgeable and an all-around wonderful person. Being a senior citizen traveling alone, she made me feel welcome and safe. I would book this again anytime I find myself in Scotland."

Dalhousie Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

Fantastic Traditional yet Up-to-date Spacious Cottage Very Close to Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Great cottage on beautiful grounds. Stayed with a group of 5. We all had plenty of space."

Harvieston Hall Estate Rooms

8/10 Good

"Унікальне історичне місце помешкання, чиста , тепла ,маленька кімната. Чистий постіль Але ціна завелика . Вікна не відкриваються ,"

The Abbey Residence

8/10 Good

"The staff at the Abbey are excellent, by far the best part about the stay. Very friendly with each encounter and extremely accommodating. We had several bags with us, and they made our check-in and check-out much easier by going out of their way to support. The room itself is satisfactory; it is about what you pay for. Nothing too extraordinary, but more than sufficient for what we needed it for. Although the bathroom wasn’t terribly well maintained, and the shower didn’t drain very well. Housekeeping was great; they came regularly and did a great job keeping the room to a high standing of cleanliness. The accommodation is also quite accessible to the city centre through both the 3 and the 29, which come quite frequently. Since there is no kitchen, having a Co-Op across the road is quite handy. Also close to some nice walking trails."

The Sun Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We were coming in late, so I called ahead. The front desk was very accommodating even though we arrived after they were closed. They left our keys for us clearly marked. The room was wonderful and the bed was spacious. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. Our room had the old-style skeleton key so if you are not used to that it might be good to brush up on how to use it before you arrive. We've experienced that a few times in the UK so it was OK for us."

Cosy cottage located 25 minutes from Edinburgh City Centre

8/10 Good

"A lovely little cottage, spotlessly clean and the owners Victor & Corina were so friendly, welcoming and helpful with anything we needed.Edinburgh city centre is only a 30 min drive. However, I would strongly recommend getting the train from Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley (city centre). Eskbank is only a 10 min drive and the train journey is only about 25 mins and at 12 return for 2 adults is brilliant and easy."
