We stayed at the Border Hotel for a couple of nights while walking St Cuthbert’s Way. The bath was a very welcome addition to the bathroom & we certainly made use of it during our stay. The bed was a little too soft & a bit lopsided but after our hikes we slept like logs anyway. This is a no frills hotel but it had everything we needed. Hearty food & a lovely friendly team. ##### Alicia Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### sally 2 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Welcome from staff in bar good, room confortable-no mirror for drying hair .

Child unfriendly. Hotel is very charming from the outside and around the bar area. Set in a quiet village and is clearly a hill walkers paradise. Clearly not a hotel that is suitable for families with infants. Positives - Peaceful, Friendly staff, bed was comfortable. Negatives - Pennine Room (most expensive room in hotel) was filthy. Shower head is disgusting and needs replaced, and when something so obvious is overlooked, it leaves you fearing the worst. Window sills were filthy. Cobwebs everywhere. Light bulbs out. Carpet clearly had a quick hoover over prior to our arrival, but generally still filthy. Really poor when you have an infant who spends most of their time on the floor. No cleaning and emptying of bins in the morning, so room bin was overflowing. Food - first nights dinner, the wife and I both had ordered the chicken pie. One was hot and one was cold. No staff member asked how our meal was. I wasn’t hungry so gave wife the hot pie and I ate the chips. Ordered an omelette for our 1 year old and when it finally arrived, it was severely undercooked. Dangerous for a child of this age. Breakfast service is very slow, fine when it’s adults who can have tea and a chat, but as I said before. Not a hotel setup well for a family with a young child. Floor in breakfast area had bits of food from days prior. On check out - no one asked how our stay was. Can only assume they expect negative feedback so don’t bother asking. Really, really poor. Shame ##### Marc Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pete 20 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect Stay for The Pennine Way Lovely hotel and my target now for 3 years in 17 days of walking the Pennine way. It’s a small cosy bar with more restaurant at side and rear. After 16 miles of my last days walking a reals Hot bath was particularly inviting. Would I stay there again? Hell yes! See you in 3 years when I do “a lap of Honour” ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/111363060C79789E36E4D2C47F362B854D7406C91632139436815.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/26C200C4F4E549EE8F07E9D7145E21A7E5C9FC501632139604904.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8E53388DEF9A7E70BDD3113B05800100329124A01632139608401.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Pete Stayed 1 night in Sep 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 12 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Overnighter Little disorganised but very friendly.

We didn’t actually stay at this hotel. It was shabby downstairs, and little attention seemed to be given to COVID precautions. The room was slightly better than downstairs, but the curtains were hanging off the rail, the wooden toilet seat had some damage and wouldn’t have been hygienic. To my mind if a hotel can’t be bothered to fix a simple thing like broken curtain hooks, or a worn toilet seat, it does not give guests confidence that it is doing its utmost to keep people safe in these trying times. The bed was large and looked fine, but we didn’t stay to lay our heads there. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason 27 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great way to end the Pennine Way An iconic place to stay at the end of the Pennine Way. Very friendly service. Hot shower, comfy bed and big breakfast - what else can you need! ##### Jason Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mick, Chesterfield 20 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is steeped in tradition and oozes character. Its the iconic finishing point of the Pennine way, a 268 mile walk from Edale in Derbyshire finishing at the border Hotel in Kirk Yetholm. The standard of the hotel is 1st class the staff warm and friendly and the food is delicious. Highly recommended ##### Mick Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Gerry, Derby 17 Aug 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disappointed that the advertised walk in shower was not to be, but otherwise a good stay. Breakfast is excellent and plentiful and staff are friendly. ##### Gerry Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt 15 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely! If you’re after a warm welcome, comfortable cozy accommodation (the beds are so comfy!) and good food, then this is the place for you. Lovely! ##### Matt Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter 1 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay in the borders. Been here several times and always given a warm welcome by friendly staff. Food is excellent too. Only downside for me is that the bed is far too soft for my taste, others may like this. ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Macdonald Forest Hills Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stirling-Hotels-Macdonald-Forest-Hills-Hotel-Spa.h1158093.Hotel-Information) > > [Balcomie Links Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anstruther-Hotels-Balcomie-Links-Hotel.h29273506.Hotel-Information) > > [Greshornish House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portree-Hotels-Greshornish-House-Hotel.h23086689.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kenmore Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-The-Kenmore-Club.h9234110.Hotel-Information) > > [Finavon Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Forfar-Hotels-Finavon-Hotel.h39618185.Hotel-Information) > > [Achness Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lairg-Hotels-Achness-Hotel.h24057466.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO Auldgirth Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dumfries-Hotels-The-Auldgirth-Inn.h36765167.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Lomond Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Loch-Lomond-Hotel.h83284830.Hotel-Information) > > [Waterfront Cottage with own Beach and Stunning Views Across The Clyde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunoon-Hotels-Waterfront-Cottage-With-Stunning-Views.h39682263.Hotel-Information) > > [Ardoe House Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberdeen-Hotels-Ardoe-House-Hotel-Spa.h23180.Hotel-Information) > > [Glasgow Westerwood Spa & Golf Resort ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Glasgow-Westerwood-Spa-Golf-Resort.h893990.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochinvar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castle-Douglas-Hotels-Lochinvar-Hotel.h43651710.Hotel-Information) > > [Ben Cruachan inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dalmally-Hotels-Ben-Cruachan-Inn.h27041653.Hotel-Information) > > [go2 Glasgow Cumbernauld Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Go2-Glasgow-Cumbernauld-Hotel.h5963230.Hotel-Information) > > [Moffat Mansion](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moffat-Hotels-Moffat-Mansion.h17712636.Hotel-Information) > > [Peel Farm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirriemuir-Hotels-Peel-Farm.h29473884.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO The Ivory Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-OYO-The-Ivory-Hotel.h2760113.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Shepherd's Hut (The Hawthorn) at Templehall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Eyemouth-Hotels-Luxury-Shepherds-Hut-At-Templehall.h35697684.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Parklands-Hotel-Country-Club.h14766742.Hotel-Information) > > [Duck Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Duck-Bay-Hotel.h30097341.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochside House Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cumnock-Hotels-Lochside-House-Hotel-Spa.h900570.Hotel-Information) > > [The Murray Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castle-Douglas-Hotels-The-Murray-Arms-Hotel.h22682976.Hotel-Information) > > [Macdonald Crutherland House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-Macdonald-Crutherland-House-And-Spa.h569463.Hotel-Information) > > [Coylumbridge Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aviemore-Hotels-Coylumbridge-Resort-Hotel.h520458.Hotel-Information) > > [Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Dalmahoy-Hotel-Country-Club.h21999.Hotel-Information) > > [ARDENNAN HOUSE HOTEL](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inverurie-Hotels-ARDENNAN-HOUSE-HOTEL.h34546411.Hotel-Information) > > [Enterkine House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ayr-Hotels-Enterkine-House-Hotel.h10176973.Hotel-Information) > > [Ardeonaig Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Killin-Hotels-Ardeonaig-Hotel.h15830740.Hotel-Information) > > [Torrs Warren Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stranraer-Hotels-Torrs-Warren-Country-House-Hotel.h1780862.Hotel-Information) ---
