Dryburgh Abbey Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"If there was an option for 10 stars, that's what the Dryburgh would get... and that would be heavily weighted by our service from their staff. They were ready willing and able at every turn... the front desk, the bar, the restaurant, the room staff and then again, the front desk. We had a reunion with friends from the UK and the US and all met here at the Dryburgh. We couldn't have asked for more... the meal we got was excellent, they put us in a small private room where we coul really enjoy our catching up stories, the service was 2nd to none, and our rooms were wonderful. Breakfast was great and the staff gave us all the time we needed. As we prepared to leave, one of our party got hit with an online travel scam !! Lauren at the front desk had heard about it, and helped point our companion towards a solution and out of a real potential jam. Who does that !?!? Wow !! Simply can't say enough for Lauren, Jamie, his mom the chef, Ashley and the whole gang. Thx Tons !!! We'll be back."

Schloss Roxburghe Golf Resort, Part of Hyatt

8/10 Good
"We booked a 2-bedroom cottage due to the fact there were no twin rooms available in the main hotel. Our booking included breakfast and we assumed this would be in the main hotel; however this was not the case and instead it was based around a credit or voucher to be used in the on-site market shop where the choice was limited. Not clear at all on the Expedia site. The hotel staff were helpful and did allow us to take breakfast in the main hotel without an additional charge in view of the obvious misunderstanding. Please be aware of this fact if you are booking the cottages as breakfast in the hotel was ยฃ32.50 per person! Also, again we assumed that as the cottages were part of the Roxburghe estate we would be able to use the spa facilities (one of the main reasons we booked there in the first place). Alas, yet another misunderstanding as free access is not included for guests staying in the cottages and the cost for a 4 hour visit was ยฃ65 per person which is steep given what is on offer (a pool, 2 saunas, a whirlpool and relaxation area). Once again the hotel responded well by offering us 1 complimentary visit but beyond this we would have to pay. Overall the hotel was excellent and the service good. However, staying in the cottages does not entitle guests to much if any of the facilities of the hotel (unless you pay) and the lack of twin rooms in the hotel itself is puzzling given the size of the hotel."
