Top Kelso Racecourse Hotel Reviews

George and Abbotsford Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was the perfect place for me and my dog. We got a nice clean room, very friendly staff, and two very good meals. Everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. I’m considering coming back to the town just to come back to the hotel."

10/10 Excellent

"Just back from a lovely stay at the Black Bull Inn. Staff were friendly and welcoming it's in a lovely location for parking and amenities. We had the luxury of staying in room 14 which featured a four poster bed, the room was lovely and the breakfast was amazing thank you cant wait to visit again."

Roxburghe Cottages, Part of Destination by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"Pet friendly hotel and cottages. Plenty of areas to walk around the grounds. In the hotel there is a pet friendly bar and restaurant area. The clubhouse has food too. There is a small shop, lovely pastries. The only issue is no welcome pack with a map of the grounds, how to work the hob, cooker and heating. Even the staff didn’t know how to work the heaters! One out of three worked after a google search. However this will not stop us going back. Staff were friendly and helpful."

Dryburgh Abbey Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic! We have been many times and always enjoyed our stay but this time was different. Rooms have had a slight upgrade (new carpets) and the food quality was amazing. Thanks to Petra for her fabulous menu. There's always something else we haven't seen or done in the area. It continues to keep our interest. Thank you for a fantastic stay!"
