I stayed here twice - once before it was finished being redecorated and once after. Neither time was I particularly impressed. The room I was in (16 I think but can't be sure anymore) had pot noodle on the wall behind the kettle the first time I stayed and the coffee cups looked like they had been used but not... More

Stayed here last summer in a lovely seaview room, but this time we were at the back of the hotel with no view and sadly all the sounds of the bar until the early hours of the morning! Breakfast itself is lovely but as another reviewer mentioned why not use the beautiful dining room. Breakfast in the badly lit, disco... More

Our last three days in Scotland were spent at Barns Ness. All three couples enjoyed the hotel as well as the service provided. The bar was enjoyable with locals joining our group. Very helpful and friendly. A return visit is on our agenda.

My family and I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights in early August at the start of our vacation in Scotland. It served as an excellent base for visiting Edinburgh and the surrounding area. 5 minute (max) walk to the railway station and 20 minutes on the train to Edinburgh...no driving, no struggling with traffic in a strange city,...

Perfectly reasonable hotel, clean rooms nicely decorated, good location, but something wasn't quite right for the value of the hotel. The service wasn't very good, breakfast was served in a village hall type room at the back of the hotel instead of the nice dining room at the front. When we left we noticed that we were being charged £10... More

Our stay here was not unpleasant and certainly amusing, in that there were so many little strange problems, which we just laughed off, but might have annoyed others. The lady in charge of reception was very friendly and helpful at all at all times. We had an executive double room, but only with shower and not bath and shower .... More

A very average hotel in Dunbar, with not much to say about it, positive or negative. Clean, functional rooms. Go elsewhere if you are looking for more class.
