6/10 Good

This hotel is in a great location and although a bit shabby now, was clean . The bed was not very comfortable and the bedding was compacted so somewhat heavy. Breakfast was good and tasty. Help yourself to tea or coffee but coffee not hot. Receptionist was very friendly and welcoming on arrival. We enjoyed a drink beside the river.

10/10 Exceptional

We were there for the championship dog show and were made to feel welcome with our dogs. Happy to pay a bit extra to have them in the hotel from time to time, though they did sleep in our car overnight (which was our choice!) The room we were allotted was extremely convenient with easy access to the car park, so no need to go through the main bit of the hotel with the dogs. The staff without exception were helpful and friendly. The food we had was very good, though a change of menu for dinner might be good. We had dinner on three nights and would have liked a bit more variety. Breakfast - we had the "continental" and the "full breakfast" - both examples were really good. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

We stayed in Ednam on a stopover for one night. The room was good and clean. We had a meal in the bar and this was good but could have done with a bigger menu. The staff were excellent and we would stay again

Staff lovely & very welcoming. Hotel comfortably warm throughout. Bedroom freshly decorated & spacious. Generally, hotel a bit tired looking. Cost of £20 per dog (in one room) seems bit steep.
