Checkin was done very easily, with clear instructions sent beforehand. There is a Greggs just in front of the hotel, and also several restaurants and takeaways in close vicinity. There was double glazing in the room, and hence better insulation. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gerald 7 Apr 2025 Would know never received pin to get entry was sent message before 15..00 pm and for the next 2hours just sent messages to agent but they got the wrong guest house also sent details ##### Gerald Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Diane 20 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness Nice x clean but needs updating very handy for shops ##### Diane Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Louise M. 6 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient, inexpensive getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Central Guest House. Instructions for entry were provided beforehand via text message. The front door sticks but luckily another guest arrived who knew how to get in and showed us the trick. It's in a great spot in the town, prefect for all the restaurants, takeaways and pubs. The interior of the building is tidy if a little shabby. We weren't entirely certain which room was ours but we eventually realised we could just pick whichever room we wanted from the keys available on the table, so we stayed in room 1. The only real problem we had was that the laminated sheet with the wifi password was nowhere to be found. However, my husband contacted the owner on the second day, and that was resolved without issue. Don't expect luxury. The beds are not the most comfortable but they're clean and do the job. The rooms are all a decent size. Sofa's are very comfy. The kitchen has all the basics you need although given it's self catering and we had takeaways too, we could have done with extra bin bags and a proper dish towel. The fire in the sitting room was needed as the draughts from the windows were pretty bad, but the heaters were quick and effective. Bathroom is lovely. Plenty of storage and a TV if you want it though we didn't use it. Two bakeries, one either side of the entrance door, and both fabulous. Gregg's across the road. Breakfast times were a joy! Loved doing the Kelso Town Trail and watching the Kelsae Laddie being announced. ##### Louise M. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Paul 20 Jul 2025 Disliked: Staff & service #### The host needs to read guest review and action! It needs to be made clearer when booking that there are no staff on site and to gain entry you have to contact the management. This is almost impossible to do as phone number is incorrect and just gives an incorrect number message. We eventually stumbled across a mobile number by googling, no one would answer the call but did thankfully text back and we were then able to gain entry. All this whilst standing outside in the pouring rain. This happened also to other travellers after we had arrived so we were able to advise them. The family room was big but decor tired and carpets stained. The microwave was on a high shelf that needed to be lifted down and placed partially balancing over the sink to reach a socket. There was 1 champagne glass and 1 whiskey tumbler to service a room for 4. The guest in the room next to us and the guest above us both returned drunk and noisy late at night, whilst the hosts cannot control this I would suggest if you are looking for a family room, no that the walls are thin and you will hear all the noise! The location is brilliant for the town centre and if the host would address the issues we and other reviewers have raised then it would be a good spot to stay in. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Mengqi 14 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Dirts on duvet and carpet, you can find many bacterial at carpet. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/967f9d05-205b-4d15-9cd3-0af210c293ef-1752523110997.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/da3812bf-d9dd-4de9-b4aa-121e98943b15-1752523111201.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mengqi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 9 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awful experience Not a pleasant experience. No access on arrival, tried to ring the number but not in use. 50 mins later a guest came out and I gained access. Apartment was very tired; no curtains on the windows; dirty crockery; dog hair all over the sofa and on the bedding. Bathroom and toilet were dirty. Very disappointing.

Also the room was tired and worn needing some refreshment in decor. The town is excellent and the location is great for the guesthouse. Also we prefer face to face welcome, don’t like just turning up and getting self-service. ##### Crystal Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jack 26 Feb 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### AVOID AVOID AVOID Premises was closed on arrival, no one around to help, locked and no access - tried ringing but the number didn’t work - had to book alternative hotel 10 miles away ##### Jack Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David 11 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### My stay Lovely room clean and tidy. Put the heating on when i arrived as room was cold but soon warmed up.comfy bed only thing to suggest is changing the stair carpet as was not in the best condition. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### James 20 Sept 2024 Great location, clean and comfortable room, but only after booking room did I find out that the hotel is not staffed and I would have to call to get an entry code, which required borrowing a bartender's phone to make the call, since I didn't have phone service in Scotland. All this happened very late in the day on a Sunday, where a missed call could have meant nowhere to stay in a small town.

There was people talking loudly and shouting. Not a great night sleep ##### Chris Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam 26 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities thanks for a great stay ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Federico 25 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Posizione perfetta. Stanza ampia e pulita. Mancavano indicazioni precise per la camera (ho capito quale era solo leggendo la fattura ed aprendo casualmente un cassetto che conteneva tutte le chiavi rimaste libere) ##### Federico Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 2 Aug 2023 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness #### Really good apartment but could be better! Really nice apartment in a great location to the square. Close by to the bars, cafes, restaurants and also not far from the Castle and main roads to get into Kelso. Check in was easy as the owner sent us details of how to get in and everything was very straight forward. Rooms were comfy, well decorated and it was a fantastic space overall. Genuinely felt really cosy and at home as soon as we entered, and it was especially great to have so much storage space including a walk in wardrobe. However, we were disappointed that when we arrived we noticed straight away there were no toiletries in the room, not even any toilet paper. We booked via Hotels.com and it definitely stated these items would be provided so we didn't think to bring any. Thankfully there is a local Boots and Coop nearby so we grabbed some basics but would have been helpful to know this upfront. The other things that brought down our rating was the cleanliness of the place including dust and animal hair. Not sure the carpets and floors had been recently hoovered or mopped as there was animal fur everywhere. It completely covered our socks and trousers. On the other hand, sheets and towels were clean and ready to use. We also had one night when the ceiling started leaking. This wasn't heavy but something that needs looked at. The fridge also leaked which meant some of our food got ruined too. Overall, definitely recommend this place but I think there's a few things that need to be looked at! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EF9E600E23DB7DF3E1E8A2E1E5A878F8C7C690861690969308363.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/D07CB233AB60EE4787164B0FA8AF9411B19E32081690969311677.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A0F7F0042A9912239AB5769AC0AC7C2AF37542B61690969315123.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0D47E3041C2BF078BCF9BC9BC377EFDE22D3D3261690969319126.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam 10 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sum 24 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Easy to park in front of the door, nice decoration and helpful staff. ##### Sum Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 4 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great stay.

Hotel very central to most amenities. Problem was the suite we were in. Looked like it was a botch job until they get round to refurbishment Bedroom clean and comfortable. Wouldn't want to use bath or shower as black mould marks on plaster tape around bath and shower curtain not up to scratching. Complained to whoever l spoke to person listed on paperwork. He was Very rude. Told me if l didn't like the room, to leave keys on table and go stay somewhere else. Taking into account this was 9pm on August Bank Holiday, we had been driving for 6 hours and l am disabled. He couldn't care less if he tried. 5 minutes later the owner came to see us. He said he understood our situation that the oven was a 'metal grease hole'. The kitchen worktops were sticky and unhygienic and the place did not live up to its rating. Owner agreed with what we stated and apologised. That however still left us paying good money for inferior accommodation. ##### Rosa Stayed 1 night in Aug 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Thomas 28 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### If you wantca sleep. Dont go here The entry to this property is via a spiral staircase. We were on the third floor which was totally inappropriate for us as we are in our 60s. The surroundings were very noisy from adjacent pubs and morning delivery vans. Room was very small and nothing like the pictures shown online. Plenty coffee, etc and a small fridge but all very cramped. Would i stay again. No ##### Thomas Stayed 1 night in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### PAUL V 23 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I’ve stayed here several times, it’s a clean, safe and comfortable guest house. I was on the top floor which gives you great views over the cobbled streets but it’s 60 steps so you don’t want to forget anything and have to go back down again. Nice facilities in the room, fridge, microwave, plenty of tea and coffee. I’m already booked for a months time from now. ##### PAUL V Stayed 1 night in Jun 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Dunblane Hydro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunblane-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Dunblane-Hydro.h520461.Hotel-Information) > > [Claymore Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-CLAYMORE-HOTEL.h57956439.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine Troon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Troon-Hotels-The-Marine-Hotel.h554927.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stirling Highland Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stirling-Hotels-The-Stirling-Highland-Hotel.h558482.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont St Andrews](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Andrews-Hotels-Fairmont-St-Andrews.h663479.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunkeld House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunkeld-Hotels-Dunkeld-House-Hotel.h520427.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Apex-City-Quay-Hotel-Spa.h897382.Hotel-Information) > > [Adamton Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prestwick-Hotels-Adamton-Country-House-Hotel.h3277768.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Dundee City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Dundee-City-Center.h15438290.Hotel-Information) > > [JA Mar Hall Scotland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bishopton-Hotels-Mar-Hall-Golf-Spa-Resort.h1077249.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Long Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Loch-Long-Hotel.h16270964.Hotel-Information) > > [Fonab Castle Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-Fonab-Castle-Hotel-Spa.h5991409.Hotel-Information) > > [The Victoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirkcaldy-Hotels-The-Victoria-Hotel.h4482159.Hotel-Information) > > [The George Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inveraray-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h24458716.Hotel-Information) > > [Inglewood House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alloa-Hotels-Inglewood-House-And-Spa.h12709295.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-William-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Hotel.h13407571.Hotel-Information) > > [Glynhill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Renfrew-Hotels-Glynhill-Hotel.h868692.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Glasgow-Airport.h519994.Hotel-Information) > > [Moness Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-Moness-Resort.h2955414.Hotel-Information) > > [The Great Western Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oban-Hotels-The-Great-Western-Hotel.h13407325.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pitlochry Hydro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-The-Pitlochry-Hydro-Hotel.h1854094.Hotel-Information) > > [Dakota Eurocentral](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Motherwell-Hotels-Dakota-Eurocentral.h1516635.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melrose-Hotels-The-Waverley-Castle-Hotel.h13431010.Hotel-Information) > > [Cameron House on Loch Lomond](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Cameron-House-On-Loch-Lomond.h980306.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Duchally Country Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auchterarder-Hotels-CLC-Duchally-Country-Estate-Hotel-Resort.h79023.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Irvine-Hotels-Riverside-Lodge-Hotel.h8519.Hotel-Information) > > [Arrochar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Arrochar-Hotel.h1423391.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Glasgow Strathclyde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bellshill-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Glasgow-Strathclyde.h520473.Hotel-Information)
