Although the hotel is dated I have stayed before so knew what to expect. It’s very central to Castle Douglas & that is the main reason I stayed there!

It’s a 200 plus year old listed building so a little old fashioned and quirky. I was initially in room 9 but Patricia the owner moved me to room 1 because when the bar is busy at weekends room 9 is pretty noisy until 1130 or so. Room 1is very peaceful.
Excellent food at the Olive Retreat 5 minutes walk away.
Everything you need is close at hand.
The staff are delightful.
If I find myself in the area I would return.

A convenient place to stay in the high street, a clean bed, a wonderful breakfast, friendly staff, good value. The building itself is old with some quirky features but I would definitely stay there again.

Very accommodating and made to feel very welcome - the room had everything you would need for a 1 night stay - decor very dated in need of a bit of paint - had a great shower - en-suite dated but spacious - bedding was clean and crisp - bed was hard so not for us but could suit someone else. Cheap and cheerful - breakfast was great - very friendly all round

Lovely find in Castle Douglas.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
The locals were friendly too. Bar was well stocked.
Room was clean and large with everything you need in it.
Easy to come and go as you please.
Breakfast (and the service) was 10/10.
Plenty of parking at the rear.
Can't recommend enough.

2/10 Poor
It is with a very heavy heart that I must leave a poor review of this hotel. The staff are lovely and the breakfast is great but I'm afraid the standard of accommodation is unsatisfactory! No hot water for three days!
Boiled kettle to heat bath water! Bed has left me with shoulder and neck pain! The bed frame is burst, with wood and stuffing exposed and I felt the bed was sloped! The window had a gap and failed to close properly which made the room more noisy. ( busy road which is no fault of hotel). The Saturday night karaoke is horrendous which again Saturday night entertainment is unavoidable in most establishments! Dirty hand prints on wall and torn duvet! I didn't check the bed further as I didn't want to know! This is budget but standards must improve as it does not reflect the lovely personalities of the owners and staff! You deserve better! Please, please give your treasure a bit more attention.

Very dated property. Shower was practically useless, a trickle of water going in various directions. Washbasin cracked, dirty and extremely unhygienic. Noise from outside until very late. Noises on several occasions throughout the night - each time lasting ten minutes or more. Will never return…!!!

Staff are lovely... hotel is tired
Hotel is somewhat stuck in a time warp... rooms are definitely 70s and need kicking and dragging into 21st century... breakfast came on hot plates but food was lukewarm... for £70 a night there is much better out there

Weekend off
We were greeted with a friendly smile from Heather. Made to feel welcome instantly.
Staff were lovely.
Bedroom was clean and the bed comfy.
Yes there's room for an update of the bathroom but it all works.
Breakfast was good and a friendly smile and welcome each morning from Martin.
Hotel bar was good with banter from the locals.
Thank you

It was a nice little room for our stay. Friendly people who gave us good information, however a few things that could be deal-breakers:
- No sockets next to the beds.
- The bathroom tap would drip all night and the water from it was always freezing cold, the flush on the toilet felt too weak to do anything.
- The doors were very loud&creaky, trying to leave the room quietly is impossible.
- Karaoke downstairs went on until gone midnight 2x days. We could hear a drunk guy banging on the table downstairs from our room and anyone talking outside, cars etc.
If you don’t mind these things then it was great!

Disappointing
The hotel is in desperate need of an upgrade. We had a heater in the room that kept switching on and off if we moved. It wasn’t the quiet Wednesday night we expected. The bar played the juke box until 2245 and you could here all the pub goers until they left at 2320.

Friendly welcome and a pleasant stay
Warm welcome from David who showed me to my room. A large double room; basic and quite dated, but clean and safe which as a solo female traveller is important to me. I had a full Scottish breakfast which was huge and really set me up for the day. The service staff were attentive and friendly. For what I paid, I really can’t complain about the hotel and I had a pleasant overnight stay there.
