George Hotel  

~We arrived at the end of a busy school/work week and travelled down in the evening from Edinburgh by train. On arrival, Reception was kind, friendly and efficient. We were quickly checked in and given a lovely, feature room which I had booked online. It lived up to all our expectations and my husband, a business travelled was very impressed - high praise indeed as he stays in very upmarket foreign and domestic hotels. The room and ensuite were a great size.. Food and drinks excellent quality and value. Quick service, lovely ambience. Our son became ill on Sunday and the hotel accommodated our late check out request with no fuss, directing mum to a chemist for medicines. We will be back and highly recommend to families, couples, professionals alike. Wonderful old fashioned elegance but with the up to date facilities we want in this day and age. I even have told Gran in Ireland who now wants to visit too. Well done to you all.

Only slight complaint would be that the heating was not on in room 5 when we arrived and so room a little chilly but soon warmed up.

The staff on reception were helpful. Due to train delays I had to arrive late [9pm ] but this did not detract from the welcome. Well Done!

There was no one on duty when I arrved in the restaurant. service at was very slow. Accordingly, I had to go and find someone to take my order. The haddock was well cooked but the poached egg was too hard - not soft as I would have expected.

In general it was very nice, especially the Christmas decorations in the reception/lounge area. The receptionist was really friendly & helpful (blonde young lady) but the duty Manager (30's male) was miserable.

The room was very hot and took quite a while to cool down. Not a major complaint though.

Staff excellent - very friendly and helpful. Hoel very comfortable with open fires in the bars and lounges.

I was on the second floor and there wasn't a lift.

I was only booked in for one night in a single room..(room 47) it was a nice surprise to find the room was a good size and had tea and coffee facilities...I Will recommend most definitely...

A very comfortable hosterlry that encompasses five hundred years of service to the general public,local poets and royalty. The ambiance mirrors the history of the George Hotel

I felt that the hotel was alittle understaffed .

Helpful staff, good location , nice room, good breakfast

I liked the friendly helpful staff and the Old Architecture and warm hospitable atmosphere of a proffesional yet traditional travelling inn. A very comfortable stay with a good resteraunt.

I did not like some small details, like the dirt on the fire escape/ balconey on my window ledge when I opened the window. The ceiling was quite low the room felt hot at times and the carpets were a bit tatty in corridor and room.

It was an ideal base for us to start our tour of the lakes. Had an excellent service from the staff especially the night porter who was very friendly and helpful. Will stay again at this hotel.

no lift.

Night away with the wife. Could not fault the stay. The check in, the room ( No45), parking, the late night drinks service, the breakfast. We had a great time and will return, that I am sure.

No complaints

Unskilled reception staff. Slow and poor breakfast service. Poor night porter service. Very noisy neighbourhood. Overpriced.

Very good room and food. Efficient friendly staff. This an old town centre hotel with character and history but in very good condition.

Compulsary 3 courses in restaurant. No internet access in rooms although free wi-fi is available in public areas.
