Best Hotels near Lockerbie, Lockerbie

Fantastic venue for family gathering in this iconic historical place. The wedding suite was amazing .All the family rooms were brilliant. We were looked after by Margaret who was totally amazing. Margaret was like an additional family member brilliant sense of humour and so helpful ( can’t wait to see you again next year) Unless you bought your camper van. Another mention to Paul who looked after our reception and was helpful in making our day special. All the staff were friendly and attentive during our stay. I would definitely say to anyone thinking of using this venue “Book it now” .Wedding photos were exceptional piper Craig was amazing and church was brilliant small but intimate . Thanks to Sandy for a beautiful service.

Yes the hotel looks dated and the area is down by the River but the welcome is genuine and the owner and staff are very attentive. The breakfast as others have noted is very very good indeed. The Inn is old and the rooms reflect this but it was warm clean and the bed was super with lovely pillows and a vicious shower!! I slept so well and was not disturbed by the musician but heard the seagulls. The pub stays open late but thats fine as it appears quite usual in Dumfries and perhaps Scotland in general. A lovely stay and one i hope to repeat very soon. Thank you to the owner for her welcome.

Driving from Edinburgh to Liverpool, choose the escape town to take a break. The overall hotel style is Motel, the price is relatively high. Good breakfast! Parking is free

A midway stop off on journey from Uig on the Isle of Skye to Somerset. The room was a decent size and very clean and comfortable. Had a really nice meal in the bar, and breakfast the following morning was good. I have eaten here many times in the past, and the standard is always high, but this was the first time I have actually stayed at the Famous Star.

Ten years ago, we stayed at the Glenlossie and it was one of the best B&Bs we've ever experienced in Scotland. I gave it top marks on Trip Advisor and that's a rarity! The owners were friendly, the breakfast was superb and the place had a professional and business-like air about it. So, thinking we'd head to D&G for a few days recently we thought to book again. In the interim the place has been taken over by the larger Caledonian Hotel next door and is now effectively an annexe. It goes without saying that the former ambience of the establishment is dead and gone. There was litter in the car park and old chairs and junk in the passage outside our ground floor bedroom window which we couldn't open for long because of the cigarette smoke emanating from who knows who although the constant coughing through the thin wall would suggest our neighbour was the culprit. The bathroom ceiling was peeling, probably due to the lack of an extractor and the sink lacked a plug. We bought one in a shop. To be fair, the room was attended to every day and coffee/tea/soap etc replenished (not the plug). You get the feeling no one is around to ”manage” the place. The front door is always on the snib. Mail lay about the porch uncollected. Breakfasts are now served at the big house and that's it. The buffet is average and the porridge wouldn't win an Oscar nomination any longer. It's a shame as the young East European lassies in charge are doing their best. I know covid has hit the hotel trade hard. Staff shortages are a common feature now and it's a wonder that places like this can stay open at all. in the Caledonian's case the funeral trade keeps them going, I gather. Good luck to them. But I think the use of the name Glenlossie for the ghostly building next door is a bit of a nonsense and quite sad in the circumstances.
