    ideal location

    Families would love this place

    The location was ideal, right in the center of everything, so you could get food anywhere you needed. They had a well-equipped kitchen which was very helpful especially when you’re traveling with kids.

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly but still acceptable.

    central to exploring landmarks and parks in kelso

    Staying here made it super easy for me to stroll over to kelso abbey in just a few steps, and being able to walk to the kelso war memorial within a minute was a real treat. the kitchen was well-equipped, allowing me to have breakfast at my own pace, which I loved as a solo traveler looking for convenience in a busy weekend.

    spacious apartment
    comfiest bed
    noisy nightlife

    Had a great stay! The apartment was spacious, clean, and comfiest bed ever. Perfectly located near all the local eateries and shops, and I loved having a well-equipped kitchen to whip up a late-night snack.

    The stairs might as well have been a treadmill—my calves are still weeping! Oh, and I could hear the nightlife like I was at a front-row concert—yikes!

    cozy atmosphere
    free parking
    relaxation opportunities
    shabby entrance hall

    Our stay was cozy, especially enjoying the free parking right outside and the quiet atmosphere despite being in the heart of town. The on-site hot tub and sauna provided lovely relaxation after a day of exploring. Just a heads up, the entrance hall could use some sprucing up, but it didn’t ruin our experience. 😊

    poor cleanliness
    noisy environment

    A comfortable stay right in the heart of town while exploring the local attractions like Floors Castle and the galleries nearby. The room was tidy with a spacious bed that made for a good night's sleep, and it was great to have a well-equipped kitchenette for breakfast. the cleanliness could be improved, especially the carpets which seemed a bit neglected.

    The room had a lovely cozy decor, making it feel inviting. The central location was perfect, allowing easy access to shops and cafes, which made our outings delightful and straightforward.

    Better soundproofing for a peaceful stay would help.

    poor cleanliness

    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Classic Double Room. The spaciousness and comfort of the bed provided excellent rest after long days exploring. The central location offered easy access to local attractions, but I found the stair carpet needed a scrubbing. a delightful experience with strong Wi-Fi and well-equipped kitchen facilities.

    My one-night stay was so cozy and the bed felt like an island of comfort! The spacious kitchen made breakfast prep a breeze, and enjoying fresh goodies from the nearby bakery was a highlight. Plus, the powerful shower was just what I needed after a day's adventure!

    would recommend 🥰✨

    Comfortable Stay with Great Location

    I spent 1 night in a Classic Double Room, and it was an enjoyable experience. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed that ensured a good night's sleep. The kitchen facilities were a big plus, allowing for a relaxed breakfast whenever I wanted. some additional attention to cleanliness would enhance the experience even more.

    historic locale
    poor cleanliness
    noise disturbance

    The local food scene is a treasure chest! Don’t miss The Cream Chimneys for divine coffee and dessert, and Saddlers Restaurant & Bar for a hearty meal that’ll warm your soul. Plus, the spacious Classic Double Room provided a cozy retreat after exploring the vibrant square.

    Cleanliness was a bit dodgy, with carpets needing a good scrub and a few too many dusty corners. the noise from the street can be a right bother from dawn till dusk.
