Top Ruthwell Cross Hotel Reviews

Hetland Hall Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean room."

The Kings Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel. As described Only issue we had was our breakfast order was forgotten and were told the cook was too busy smoking"

The Golf Hotel

8/10 Good

"All good and hotel met expectations. Hotel is perhaps a little tired and in need of some refurbishment but rooms clean, beds comfortable and good shower, ideal for golf trip accommodation and reasonably priced. Only thing to watch out for is my room was next to the kitchen extractor fan that comes on at 7am so don’t expect a lie in if you are in room 6"

Days Inn by Wyndham Gretna Green M74

8/10 Good

"Very friendly and professional staff, room clean. The only fault if you do not have own transport it was impossible to get a taxi also this meant you had to eat at the services which can be expensive."

The Gables Hotel

8/10 Good

"For us it was very much a functional pit-stop that was good value for money compared to the increasingly expensive competition. The hotel and room is fairly tired & basic but was quiet and what we needed."
