The Dryburgh Abbey Hotel was simply lovely, quiet, and beautiful along the River Tweed. It was especially nice because the Dryburgh Abbey was walking distance from the hotel and something to see and experience. Everyone at the hotel and the guests were very friendly. The restaurant was delicious. It's definitely an adult hotel as there was very little to nothing to do for children. We had a very pleasant stay in a nice room.

This hotel is charming in every way. It is situated in a very beautiful setting, along the Tweed River, next to the stunning Dryburgh Abbey ruins. It is very peaceful and quiet, a wonderful getaway from the daily grind. Breakfast was a wonderful meal each day and there is also dining options for the evening. Free parking on site which was also convenient for my rental car. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Dryburgh Abbey Hotel and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Disappointing a grand old hotel that has seen better days.Pub style food service on plain Formica tables,no table clothes,no character . Gone have the bottles of water in the room and the toiletries,it’s all about the bottom line Lethargic staff,who took 1/2 an hour to realise they hadn’t put the table number on our food so it sat in the kitchens as no one thought to see who was without food! Pathetic

It's nice, but it's pretty rundown at this point. The breakfast is awful, but the staff are nice and helpful, and the area is great, but the hotel itself is just rundown and sad.

We had a nice, quiet stay at this hotel to end our visit to Scotland. It was a very relaxing stay to end our trip. Our room was spacious, quiet, and comfortable. The Dryburgh Abbey is directly across the parking lot from the hotel. Nice views of the Abbey and the River Tweed from the hotel. We were sad to check in and walk to the Abbey just as they had closed for the evening, so we sadly weren’t able to visit it during our stay. The hotel has a small dining area and bar. I would recommend making a reservation for dinner if you are visiting.

Quality of food did not reflect the prices, a cocktail bar that only offered bloody mary or mojito and the choice of 1 from 4 draught beers since 3 of the fonts off due to no beers available. Very disappointing

A comfortable stay at the hotel with a very good meal available in the Abbey Bistro. The hotel looks a little tired in its standards of decor and while my bathroom was recently refurbished, the bedroom was quite dated and would have benefited from new carpet and a general redo to bring it into the 21st century. Staff were all helpful and personable but wait staff in the restaurant could do with an experienced maitre d to keep an eye on things and deliver further training about monitoring tables and guests to facilitate a closer focus on details.

Disappointing...could be wonderful
This Hotel has so much potential ...beautiful location, imposing building. But it is tired - shabby furnishings, stained carpets, chipped paint. We had a shower that fell to bits upon first use. Staff are friendly but poorly trained. We had one dinner in the restaurant which seemed to use the cheapest ingredients and was over priced for what it was. Go with low expectations.
