Location was lovely and the bar and lounge area really nice - warm with a large log burner. Restaurant dinner was very good, fresh food cooked to a high standard.

Small family hotel with friendly helpful staff. We were staying for 3 nights and had booked the small double but got upgraded to the triple room which was spacious. Both room and ensuite were spotless. Towels were big and soft.
Food was tasty, well presented and very large portions. BR had good selection of beers, spirits and wine.
In the centre of Melrose, The Townhouse Hotel is a 2-minute walk from Melrose Abbey and less than 3 miles from Sir Walter Scott’s former home, Abbotsford.

This is a lovely old town.
This is a lovely old town. The Abbey was under some repair but a fantastic, historic place. The rugby stadium dominates Sadly, didn't get chance to do the Roman stuff;maybe next time. The River Tweed is beautiful and there is good walking around its banks and bridges. The centre has some nice pubs. The Kings Arms was very friendly, the locals inviting me into their conversation. Everyone was so welcoming. The walk into Galashiels is about 50 minutes (ten minutes drive, tops). In Gala, the Great Tapestry of Scotland is a must see. I spent nearly three hours in there and still rushed the last bit.

Melrose is the 'jewel in the crown' of the Scottish Borders, with beautiful surrounding hills (Eildons) and lovely Borders towns nearby like Galashiels and Kelso. Borders folk are also very friendly and helpful. Sir Walter Scott's House at Abbotsford is wonderful and it's worth seeing the William Wallace Statue near Dryburgh.

Melrose is a nice little town with shops, cafés, bars and restaurnts, an interesting museum and a lovely historic site: the ruins of a mediaeval abbey. The scenery is picturesque with the river Tweed running through the town. As I love the outdoors, it was important for me to have a lot of hiking routes starting from the town. There are buses running from there, too, to all directions, so important places, the capital or even the sea are within easy reach.
I visited Dryburgh Abbey on foot and Kelso and Jedburgh by bus. A visit to Abbotsford, the house of Sir Walter Scott was absolutely intriguing. The rolling hills of the Borders are so beautiful that I would go back this instant if I could.

Trimontium Museum in Melrose market place is absolutely first class - about a huge Roman fort a couple of miles outside Melrose. Melrose Abbey was disappointing as most of it is fenced off whilst they carry out building inspections, and it didn't look like this would change any time soon. Dryburgh Abbey about 5 miles away is better. Abbotsford well worth a visit. We also took the train from Tweedbank to Edinburgh for the day which worked very well. Also visited the Great Scottish Tapestry in Galashiels which is an absolute must. Can recommend Provender in Melrose for dinner. Town centre has a range of independent shops and cafes.

Quaint small town.
Quaint small town. The Roman Museum is very good as is the visit to the Abbey, although, unlike last time you could not go into the abbey. I was there to begin the St. Cuthbert Trail walk to Lindisfarne. Sir Walter Scott's nearby home is worth a visit.

See reviews by guests who stayed at hotels in Melrose
Melrose is a very nice little town and easy to get around on foot. For us, the best things about the hotel were its location, free parking and the availability of hot water. The young ladies (students?) working in the bar and breakfast room were very pleasant, the rest of the staff pretty much ignored us. When checking out and depositing our door key the man at the desk just stared at us without acknowledging us in any other way.
Breakfast was superb. Home cooked, excellent choice and quality. Staff were exceptionally pleasant and very attentive.
Hotel parking was ample and free , ideal location for walks to Eildon hills etc, and to explore the Borders .
V good breakfast. Plenty and hot.
Great parking. Friendly staff.
Lovely walk into Melrose along the river great for dogs. You can enjoy a full days walk from the hotel up the Eildon Hills.
the room was clean and comfortable, the location is exceptional and the bar and restaurant are excellent.
I would highly recommend a stay at the Dryburgh Abbey hotel.
