The hotel has old fashioned charm Its not dirty but is shabby ! Staff very good and food not bad either
Yes breakfast was great, the room was clean but could do with being updated a bit,
The staff were fantastic very polite and helpful went out of their way to accommodate anything we needed, parking on site was good. The hotel is in a fab location.We both enjoyed our stay & would recommend this hotel to our family & friends.

Spectacular location and really friendly and helpful staff. Made to feel very welcome.
Food was very good and the bar and restaurant were very nice areas.
Beutiful open fire in the lobby.
The room was run down though. Stained carpets and the bath didnt drain.
Friendly staff, a good breakfast, but a tired attic bedroom with damaged furniture and showert fitting. We've tried Ednam House Hotel twice in recent years. There won't be a third time until the owners invest in refurbishment.
Absolutely beautiful property, we had an amazing view of the river tweed and the gardens are lovely to walk around. You are in walkable distance to everything in Kelso which is great.
Lovely old hotel in Kelso. Comfortable room with good facilities. A little tired in places, but perfectly acceptable for us. Great staff team, friendly and helpful, and a wonderful breakfast to set you up for the day

Ednam House Hotel
This hotel is in a good location and food quality is good. Service on the whole was good. It is a 'squeaky floorboard and worn carpet' type of establishment and could benefit from some simple enhancements to standards to lift it up.
Lovely hotel, quiet lots of places to sit outside and enjoy the views across the tweed.
Staff very friendly and helpful, food excellent, just a nice place to chill out, no noisy children to spoil the tranquility.
Lovely short break in Kelso, the hotel was in a great location, staff very friendly and helpful. Had dinner in the hotel on our first night which was excellent. Loved the river view from our room, very tranquil.
