Hawick Holidays

Great Nostalgic hotel, beautifully appointed rooms and the location was perfect to visit the city of Edinburgh.

Clean and fresh and modern rooms. But we did not expect to have our breakfast in the pub next door. Last day it was a big rugby game on tv with loud volume and people drinking beer and watching at 09 😁 But the bacon was delicious.

Unfortunately, there was nobody to contact for immediate help (as is standard with a normal hotel). This became a big problem for us on the last two days of our stay when the plumbing in the shower failed and we could only get scalding hot water out of the shower. We hadn't encountered this problem in prior days and we didn't receive a response from the property manager (who had responded quickly to our earlier requests for more toilet paper) until we were already checked out of the room..."Good morning. can i send a handyman asap?" This message was sent to us on our train ride out of Edinburgh. We were on our way to London to see a show and have a nice meal in celebration of our anniversary...showerless! This happened during a heat wave, and there was also no AC in the apartment. UGH! For such a pricey rental, working showers ought to be available at a minimum. After repeated unanswered texts, I had also asked if there was a shower in a different unit that we could use, and never received a response to that text. The lack of response to a serious problem was very disappointing and it ruined the end of our trip. On the positive side, the location of these apartments is great...very close to many attractions. The apartment is also spacious, which is helpful for a longer stay. We watched a couple World Cup games in the evenings, and the living area with the large-screen TV was perfect for that.

Really great hotel and fantastic stay, beds were slightly firm but mostly comfortable. The walls are very thin especially if you’re next door to a hen party, but breakfast is included and the hotel is in an amazing location close to all the attractions for a reasonable price. The shower was also one of the best showers myself and my partner have ever encountered in a hotel. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for having us!
