Breakfast was top notch, well cooked, well presented and plentiful. Could not fault it. The room (7) was well presented, clean, tidy and comfortable. On the down side it was extremely hot and a blocked overflow drain kept us awake most of our first night. However, there was no issues and once we had pointed out that the overflow was a problem we were promptly oved to another room. The heating in the initial room was stifling but it should be noted that we visited in January and the outside temps were sitting around 0 degrees C what was too hot for us may well have been perfect for others. Staff were exceptional and we made friends with the owners wee dog. All in all Balcary is a great place to stay and I would very much recommend it.

We arrived very late in the evening about 9:30pm and the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming or more helpful. They recommended a local takeaway that delivered and allowed us to eat our food in the bar and have a drink. Our room was huge and very comfortable. We’ll definitely be back.

House and location are excellent. The property has been thoughtfully restored and the decor matches its fine Victorian grandeur perfectly. Catering is limited and of poor quality. Fixtures and fittings are low grade and poorly maintained. It is inexpensive.

We stayed here the night before I had a race, the staff were so friendly and accommodating. We arrived later due to traffic and a road closure, so missed ordering food, however we were recommended some restaurants that were dog friendly and local takeaways that we order to the room. We had one of our dogs staying with us, we were advised there was a little paddock at the front of the gardens that's was secure for him to play in. My partner returned to the hotel after dropping me in the morning and had a lovely breakfast with our dog. The room was immaculate and smelled amazing, however they cleaned it was the best smelling room Ive staying in. As for the reviews saying "the place smelled of dog" absolutel nonsense. I've stayed in non pet friendly hotels which were no where near as lovely and fresh as this one. Only negative is I wished we'd stayed longer and will definitely be back.

On arrival at hotel we were greeted with “name!” No hello , welcome. The man was not made for customer service. Told our room number but not how to get to it. Whole hotel smelled of dog. We have stayed in hotels before that are dog friendly but never had that overwhelming smell. Room was ok. Nothing soecial.

Great welcome from lovely staff... beautiful building, only criticism was the bathroom. It was large and spotlessly clean but it had a handbasin the size of a pudding bowl? and the shower was rubbish. It was a challenge to use, and the pressure was extremely poor.

The Manager & staff, went above & beyond, ensuring we had a pleasant stay. Excellent customer service, we would definitely stay here again.

Thanks to Sure & Dave for being wonderful hosts. We enjoyed as a family and will definitely be coming back soon. We enjoyed the lovely walk, great hot breakfast (Thanks to the chef) with excellent coffee too. My boys loved their stay at Hawick :) Special mention about Hospitality staff named ‘Fern’ for her lovely service. Many thanks again. Keep up the good work team xx

As there was a wedding taking place we couldn’t have a bar meal. Not really an issue as we had a very nice Italian dinner at a restaurant on Hawick

Room excellent but room 2 saw next door and their bathroom was across the corridor entrance to our room so we could hear their door being opened during the night. Disturbing!

6.0 / 10.0

Had a lovely big Lodge, but there wasn’t a mirror in the bedroom only a small handheld makeup mirror in bathroom and a mirror over the bathroom sink, no where to dry hair or straighten hair. Lodge was a great size but lacked finishing touches, a chair would have been nice to sit on and a dressing table. Long driveway was pitch black no lights at all to help you find your way to the hotel in the evenings we had to find our way by torch app on phone. Not safe. The young ladies waiting on in breakfast room were very pleasant and friendly.

We stay one night. The house is located in a quiet place just a short distance from down town. Bedroom and bath clean and comfortable. Breakfast okay. Good place to stay

4.0 / 10.0

A well-restored historical small hotel.. Rooms tastefully decorated, however there are a few small issues that could be improved to make a more comfortable stay to elevate the experience. Room needed better situated electrical sockets anywhere near mirror for hairdryer use. Bath towels were too small. Bedside lamp shades not attached to base and fell off. A rather luke-warm welcome on arrival was disappointing.

My partner and I loved our stay here. Everyone was friendly and generous, the room was lovely, the grounds were beautiful, and everything felt so Scottish.

When we arrived at the Hotel, the half dozen or so parking places were used, so we had to park around the back of the hotel. I went in to pay and l was met by a brisk "Can l help you?" The middle aged Gent dealt with my paperwork, whilst l went out to get my hand bag. I went back in to pay and asked if we could book dinner at the Restaurant, (which was mentioned in the Hotels.com blurb) which was replied to with a disappointing reply that we couldn't book dinner as it wasn't available and that we should head on into the town centre to find food. I was a bit annoyed at this, as we had paid the price for this Hotel, believing, that we should have been able to relax and have dinner at a Hotel of this calibre, especially when the Restaurant was listed in the Hotel's amenities. Our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The en-suite bathroom was adequate, although l was unable to use the shower as it involved climbing into the bath first! The breakfast the following day, had several choices available with the usual jars of jam, honey, marmalade etc. and a selection of cooked items from a menu. Toast, tea/coffee were also served to the table.

4.0 / 10.0

Comfortable room, clean bathroom, nice breakfast. Easy to get into Hawick. Minor downside was difficulty finding anyone to check in or out, neighbourhood dogs barking until 11pm, and other guests large dog being allowed in the upstairs room and landing so we discovered it right outside our room door when we opened it. Would probably stay again but the dog situation is a bit off putting- question of hygiene in bedrooms if they are allowed there

Loved the cleanliness, the quiet location and ambience.

A lovely small and personal hotel with large and spacious room/ensuite. Breakfast was disappointing - a churlish waitress, a potato scone but no square sausage (a cooked breakfast in Scotland but not a Scottish cooked breakfast) - better cutlery and crockery would have been more fitting for Balcary House Hotel than the "Diner" style in use.I would stop here again.
