Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The food is first class; the staff friendly and the room clean abd comfortable. B&B rate is a little higher than comparable hotels. Obviously you can expect traffic noise if you are at the front of the hotel being in the market square facing a road but we were woken very early by delivery men playing very loud rhythmic dance music from their lorry cabs. Hotel manager needs to speak with regular drivers about respect for sleeping guests. Lorry noise ok but NOT loud music.

A lovely nights stay

We stayed at Burt’s the night before commencing our long distance walk along St Cuthbert’s Way. Upon our arrival we were greeted incredibly warmly. My suitcase was carried up to our room - which was very much appreciated. We enjoyed a tasty evening meal & hearty breakfast which ensured an excellent start to our hike. The team were attentive & nothing was too much trouble. I’d recommend Burts to anyone & would happily stay again. Thank you team Burt’s for a lovely nights stay!

Great local hotel and restaurant.

Great little hotel in the lovely village of Melrose. The food at the restaurant/pub was excellent and there was a cozy fire buring away. I booked a single accomodation and the room was on the smaller size but perfect for my needs.
