This Hotel is a very good stopping-off point in the Borders. It's a good value 3 star hotel in a great location on the banks of the River Tweed, a short walk from Kelso's old town square. We have stayed here three times on our way to the Highlands, and will do so again.

Beautiful property. Upon retrospect, we probably would have enjoyed booking one of the higher priced room to get the full experience rather than the standard room up on the attic floor.
