United KingdomLocation, ambience, friendly staff, good food and very good value for money.
United KingdomThe staff at the hotel were fantastic with my kids and really tried hard to ensure we had everything we needed. The lady who served us in the restaurant and the lady who served us at breakfast were particularly great. The food, both at our evening meal and at breakfast, was wonderful and all our requests were honoured. We felt very covid-safe. Our family room was enormous and was more than perfect for what we needed it for. We had a lovely stay.

United KingdomMy wife has dietary problems which is usually a problem while travelling. The staff here couldn't have been more accommodating in ensuring mealtimes were safe for her, regularly checking that everything was to her liking. The bar meals were excellent and reasonably priced. Service was spot on. Very Covid aware.
United KingdomThe hotel staff was very friendly and helpful which definitely made my visit to the Borders more enjoyable. My room, described as small was in fact really spacious and very comfortable with a lovely view for the hotel garden. Both breakfast and dinner were excellent. I would be very happy to come back and stay at the Kingsknowes Hotel again!
