Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Obwohl zwischen 2 befahrenen Strassen, war es im Zimmer wirklich ruhig. Das Zimmer war sauber. Das Frühstück war so wie wir erwartet haben und ok. Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Gut gelegen.
Das Zummer und das Bett waren klein.
No dining facilities available due to weekend. Continental breakfast was boxes of dried cereal, limited fruit , no cheese etc,location on busy road was noisy as was Saturday evening music. Also no soap or toiletries in ensuite
Läget. Spelhallen med biljard och dylikt.
Den snålaste frukosten jag och min familj någonsin upplevt. Oljud i badrumsfläkt. Otrevligt bemötande då banken strulade med betalning.
Location of the hotel is excellent. The staff are very helpful and friendly. We had the continental breakfast - there was plenty to choose from. We often go to Berwick and throughly enjoy staying at the Castle.
The room was very comfortable and well appointed. It was a nice touch that a member of the team knocked on your door in the morning just to ask if you needed anything. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The location is second to none.
Can't fault anything. A little on the expensive side maybe although it is peak season.
Onsite restaurant and comfortable beds.
The location is perfect; right across from the train/bus station. Taxies line up there everyday at all times. Hotel is in town by walking trails, ocean nearby, castles and other historical sites are within 40 miles and public transportation goes everywhere. The assistant manager is very friendly and helpful. Best part was watching the tide come in while sitting in the lighthouse pier.
Continental breakfast
Halt alt.Man hört alles von den andern Zimmer
Excellent location snd historical ties, with LS Lowry being a frequent guest in the past.
Geweldig. Ideale locatie in een prachtig stadje. Lief personeel. Wij hadden de hele bovenverdieping tot onze beschikking (deluxe studio). Het was echt perfect. Prachtig uitzicht over de Tweed, ruim, schoon. Echt heerlijk!
干净整洁,位置好
楼下酒吧非常吵,隔音不行,乐队唱歌楼上都咚咚响
Perfekt läge för den resande.
Den snålaste frukosten vi någonsin sett på ett hotell. Badrummet hade problem med fukt och fläkten man satt in för att avhjälpa detta lät väldigt mycket. Mycket låg bandbredd på nätet.
Right by the railway station.
There was no food served on the night I stayed. Hot tap needed fixing!
A fan in the room during this hot spell! Great location for the railway station. They accept pets (for a fee). Friendly local staff. Berwick is historical and well worth a visit.
Our room was on the small side, but fine for a 1 night stopover on the way to north Scotland.
Good food, polite friendly helpfull staff and clean comfortable surroundings both in the public rooms and bedrooms
A lift would help the not so able like me get easier access to bedrooms.
Lovely
Nothing. Was so good couldnt believe my luck
The extremely large bathroom
There was a singer/guitarist on and should only have been until 22.00 but went on past 23.00.
I was in a room that looked out across to the train station which I loved, & to the countryside beyond.
Nothing.
Nice big room, close to station
Expensive and breakfast wasn’t great (pastries not fresh) and not even a slice of cheese or ham. For this price we expected a bit more.
Location
Proximity of pub, noisy, not suitable for a two night stay with a 1 year old. Everything was difficult to navigate with a small child.
The location was perfect. The breakfast was fine.
The room was very noisy.
Very close to railway station Staff very friendly and professional
Description & photos of studio led me to believe the 3 beds would be in the same room. I chose it as we were old friends who don't see each other often & it was the last night of our week long walk so we wanted to all be in the same room to be able to chat.
Close to station, staff friendly
No parking, but only 3.50 for 24 hours at railway station next door
The staff were friendly and the food ok
Very expensive accommodation for a 2 star hotel. £366 for 2 nights + dog inc only a continental breakfast !!! Didn’t realise it was only a 2 star until too late.
The rooms were a lot larger than expected and very comfortable beds
Quite in flexible on changes and need to pay on full in advance
Great location.
Nothing
Comfortable, clean accommodation, friendly staff, good location
Cannot think of anything,.
Staff were very friendly and accommodating regarding meals nearby as kitchen was shut, and regarding bicycle storage
Rooms were on the small side
Quiet hotel despite being close to the railway station and the main road into town. Town centre within easy walking distance, also Castle Gardens park. Room small (and we booked "small room" so no complaints) but perfectly fine for one night. Good breakfast, good wifi, friendly staff.
Nothing really
Helpful staff, clean and great facilities. Thank you
Nothing
Die Lage direkt am Coronation Park und zugleich Bahnhofsnähe..von dort aus bequem einen Rundgang entlang der Stadtmauern gemacht. Self Service Frühstück ist eher einfach bietet aber ansprechende Vielfalt (Auswahl an Cornflakes und Müsli, Toast mit Marmelade).
Badezimmer war kalt, Fenster schloss nicht richtig.. Zimmer war generell sauber, aber die Überdecke hatte Flecken
An sich gutes Hotel. Halbwegs freundliches Personal, gute Lage.
Mehrere grosse Spinnen im Zimmer, was zu erheblichem Bewertungsabzug führt!
I liked my room which was very comfortable and clean, the nice welcome I received and the breakfast.
there was nothing that I didn't like.
Location
Nothing
Location was great, staff very helpful and friendly
Breakfast was lovely location very good
Whilst I pre-paid for Breakfast whilst booking with Booking.com when I went to breakfast I was told it was a continental breakfast only included and if I wanted an English Breakfast it was an addition £9.95 per person. In addition on arrival I was informed that it was Karaoke night which will be on until 2300 HRS and it may be noisy which it certainly was. On the 2nd night (sunday) again there was music on until 2300. I am not against people enjoying themselves but I had a young family with me and things like this should be highlighted when booking.
Breakfast, Karaoke and loud music whilst trying to sleep.
Location a few minutes walk from town centre, opposite railway station which also provides low cost (£3.60) overnight parking. Room clean with a good view from the window. Good price for a basic hotel stay.
Bed was too soft for me. Hotel and room generally basic, with cheap fixtures and fittings.
Location was great, right near the train station, bed and room very comfortable, I hadn’t been sure what to expect as couldn’t tell about the area and condition of the property but was pleasantly surprised — a nice pub downstairs, very friendly and helpful staff helped book taxis to the Holy Island and accommodated us waiting for a taxi pickup after they had to close/lock the property late morning
Public areas/stairs a little dated but fresh and clean room made up for it
Easy to find
Only spent a few hours in the property so nothing
Limited choice for continental breakfast, area sitting in the Bar not very pleasant
Breakfast choice and area
Friendly syaff good pub food and great bar
Very basic rooms in need of upgrading
Was near train station
The room was a bit small for been a double room
The breakfast the second morning was good, properly cooked fresh food. Bed and room were ok.the staff were trying their best but were obviously overworked.
The hotel was VERY noisy, on the Saturday night there was a party with live band playing till 1am right beneath my room. The bed was actually vibrating along with the bass it was awful.
The room was clean enough and the bed comfortable, great shower. Nice welcome on checking in with recommendations for dining. The cooked breakfast was lovely. Handy location for the railway station, long walk down hill into town though.
The sink in the bathroom was cracked, the plug didn't work meaning water just drained away. I didn't expect to be having my breakfast while being begrudged every mouthful by the dogs at the next table, nor to have to keep stepping over them to go to the breakfast room area. No lift and no offer of help with luggage.
Nice bar and decent sized rooms.
No food served
Room was clean and bright. The flat is spacious and bathroom is a good size with both bath and big shower.
Old building with no lift … not suitable for carrying luggage or indeed anyone not great on their feet.
The hotel is centrally located. The old town is within easy walking distance. The train and bus stations are in the immediate vicinity. Ideal for an overnight stay on the way to Scotland.
The continental breakfast was rather basic. An English breakfast was offered upon request, but charged extra. The smell in the room was unpleasant. The generator outside the window was very loud.
Location was good, the room was clean and plenty room very large bathroom.
The shower was a bit disappointing not much force with shower.
The property was extremely close to the train station,only a minute walk away. It was also near High Street and the bus stop to get to Spittal Beach. We booked a family room for two adults one child it was large and spacious, we only stayed one night, but could’ve stayed there longer.
Breakfast choices adequate, but not exceptional. One front desk attendant was extremely friendly and helpful and even let us check in sooner than we stated because our room was ready.
Next to the station, buses and lovely walks to the river. Wonderful views from the room over the station, seeing the trains coming and going and the river Tweed with a good sunset. Helpful staff. Meals available including sunday lunch. Room was very quiet.
Water wasn't hot so no shower but staff said in the morning there was a boiler problem.
Opted for continental as full was extra. Was basic toast cereal fruit yogurt. Was given door key if stayed out late which was good
Room was very small
The location was good
Did not get offered a breakfast even though it was included in the price
Everything was perfect
Nothing
Bra läge nära station.
Mycket lyhört.
It was basically a 2 min walk to the station and we were able to leave our luggage. The room was very clean and airy and had a modern feel to it. The bed was comfy and even though there was heating on, there was an additional fan heater in the room. The staff were very pleasant and friendly the atmosphere in the bar was very relaxed. The continental breakfast was good and there was a nice selection. (This was included in the room rate) You can order a cooked breakfast, for a charge. A couple had this and it was freshly cooked and looked good.
The shower was a hit and miss. it went from hot to freezing. There is some noise from the road but this is to be expected.
Location was very good for train station
Room and location
Car parking availability.
Good location. Hotel room was spacious and clean. The facilities at the hotel seem decent.
There is a cost for anything cooked at breakfast. No one told me this upon check in so the charge came as a surprise to me. I was charged £6.95 for scrambled eggs with me having to make my own toast to go with it! I was also charged £9.60 for nothing - clearly an error on their end. When I questioned the hotel about this, I got curt responses and no apology. Very disappointing as I liked the hotel apart from this.
Excellent location. Family room was very large,only stayed 2 nights but would be comfortable for much longer. Next to train station, easy route into Scotland Good continental breakfast, upgrade available at additional cost, that was freshly cooked.
Late booking cost more, not really the Hotels fault but marks the stay down for value. Noisy Karaoke night but we were warned on check in.
I liked the fact I could take my dog. I opted for the free continental breakfast. Which was very good. You could serve yourself. And basically eat as much as you needed.
I get why when I booked. The site said, just one room left on this site. It was the one directly above the bar. So you can hear everyone talking. You didn't have to go down to the live entertainment. You could hear it all in the bedroom. And it sounded good to be honest. But goes on until 11.30, so bare in mind if you have to be up early for a train, or a hike. I'm not saying that the rest of the hotel is bad. We just drew the short straw this time. Also, there's no double glazing, and you are overlooking a very busy road. You wouldn't think the A1 existed. As it seems every single vehicle going to and from Scotland. Passes straight through Berwick upon Tweed. And I mean 24/7. There's NO quiet period. Room 9 it was. Avoid, if you want a good night's sleep. We had to come home for a rest.
If you like a hotel with history, character and a splendid location this place is for you. Right beside the train station, easy car parking, on main bus route and at one the end of the main street within walking distance of all of Berwick's attractions and riverside walks. I particularly liked the open fire in the busy bar with it's friendly atmosphere on a cold March night.
I found nothing to dislike.
Du får det betaler for. . Enkelt ned and breakfast. Kontinental frokost inkludert. Mulig å kjøpe full English for ca 10£
Litt kaldt på rommu No
Very friendly staff. Very accommodating.
All good.
Location, staff friendly and helpful and work really hard. Nice bar area good range, good entertainment, food also very nice
The fan that came on In he night outside my bedroom window woke me both nights
Nice city been a few times now castle hotel never disappoints
Nothing in particular
Staff
Live music on could not sit in bar as full think you should be told at booking about live acts could hear it very loud in bedroom
Breakfast included was continental, which was very good and a good selection, full cooked breakfast was extra ,we had it on last morning, served hot and well , great value for money , the staff we met were very helpful and informative,
There wasn't anything we didn't like
La ubicación
El desayuno continental no nos gustó. Los dulces insípidos y un poco duros. Nos hubiera gustado que nos ofrecieran un desayuno más típico escocés o inglés.
The location and the bar staff were super.
They were advertised as having an in house restaurant. No food on sale. I was told to go to the chippy. Also was advertised as including breakfast , but was an extra £10 for cooked breakfast. The breakfast included was yoghurts, pastries and coffee , fair enough , but should advertise it properly.
