8 May 2007

My husband and I stayed at this hotel over the May Bank Holiday. Accommodation in Kirkudbright was hard to find - all the B&B's (which were my first choice) were full. This hotel got good reviews on Trip Advisor and had a room left, so we stayed here. It is situated in a quiet residential location. Kirkudbright isn't that big, so everything is within easy reach. We stayed in Room 17, a twin room that was a bit past it's sell-by-date. The bathroom although big, had bacteria around the bath area. The bed's were hard and rather small for single beds (we had a twin room) and the room is situated right next to a door at the top of the stairs that gives access to the corridor - and also directly above a lane that leads to the kitchens so we got noice from both areas into the early hours. We also heard other guests talking - so it isn't soundproof either. Despite this, we ate at the restaurant - as there wasn't many other eating places in Kirkudbright, and we were pleasantly surprised. The food was very good and nicely presented. The owner did seem a bit harassed when we turned up for our table, informing us that we could sit at our table but would have to wait a while to be served as they were busy(despite having a reservation for 8.00pm), or we could come back! Beware when asking for a glass of wine too - despite telling them I wanted a specific glass, it comes from a tap in the bar , not from the bottle - virtually on draught and isn't very pleasant. Breakfast was great - lots to choose from and really good quality. We would stay here again in a few years time - it has just been taken over by Best Western so improvements will probably be made to the rooms and the decor - and it is worth it for the food and the great breakfast.

Only stayed one night booked through late rooms under a very good offer.

Arrived quite late 8.30pmish dinner stops at 9pm we were requested to order more or less right away, which we didn't object to but not really four star attitude.

Meal we had was fine, pretty large portions, fast service and reasonably priced, but certainly not red rosette standard.

Bedroom for the price we paid was acceptable, bathroom could have been cleaner!

Breakfast was very good and again fast service.

Overall for what we paid we got value for money, fast and pleasant service, and a nice addition was all the staff were Scottish.

Would return at this sort of price level but would not be prepared to pay the full tariff.

Gillian and I arived at the Selkirk arms hotel, after a days mountain biking in glen trool. We were tired and with dirty bikes. The manager was excellent, he gave us a great room, and offered us a safe place to store the bikes. We stayed for the weekend, and eat in the hotel at night, where the food was brilliant. The breakfasts were superb as well. Absolutley no complaints whatsoever. Highly recommended.

My sister and I really enjoyed our short stay in this very friendly hotel . My sister is disabled and the staff couldn't have been more helpful . The rooms were spacious and attractive .The food was of a high standard and it was very pleasant to just walk out of our rooms in the old cottage part of the hotel and sit on the lawn and have morning coffee or before dinner drinks .
