Fab hotel had great stay

Stayed 25th November 2013

Having read some of the 'iffy'Trip Advisor reviews after making our booking for a 3 night stay we had some reservations about staying at the Cardrona. We could not have been more wrong. The standard of service we received from all staff was excellent. Reception had given us a room upgrade as it was my birthday whilst staying there so we had a room with a view overlooking the golf course and river Tweed (even number rooms). The food was lovely on the evening meals and hot breakfast choices were cooked to order. The wine was expensive at

not impressed with this hotel, not very homely, felt you were intruding there space, i generally like to sit in a lounge, enjoy the atmosphere and have a few drinks and relax, but none of the above were pleasant, sorry to say i would not recommend.

all staff very friendly just a small thing I think restaurant staff could do with extra training maybe some biscuits next to tea & coffee facilities in room very shocked to be told from bar staff on Monday evening they were closing the bar at 10:30 other than that beautiful hotel I would love to go back

Very enjoyable weekend. Lovely food and excellent entertainment from the resident band

Stayed 15th November 2013

We enjoyed our stay. We were upgraded to a dinner dance on Saturday night. It was good.

Stayed 15th November 2013

Lovely hotel, fantastic value thanks to an upgrade from Classic Britain and a further upgrade by hotel itself to their Saturday dinner dance. Staff were excellent, friendly and attentive, special mention of Michael who worked his socks off both Friday and Saturday. Food of excellent quality, Friday night portions a bit meagre but put right on Saturday at the dinner dance. Would definitely go back on a similar deal(we go away around this time every year)next year, although we did miss out on the promised chocolates in our room. Bar was very expensive, totally overpriced for wine and cocktails although beer was much more fairly priced. Weather and surroundings made it a great weekend.

Stayed 14th November 2013

We love this hotel & will definitely stay again. Maybe only downside was we found the bar prices very expensive.

Stayed 10th November 2013

E.verything about our one night stay was top class. Our room was very comfortable and the bed was massive. The evening meal was excellent and the staff were polite and attentive. Definitely intend to go back

Nothing is perfect but the Macdonald cardona comes close!

Stayed 8th November 2013

We had a wonderful night at Cardrona! We took our friends who had not stayed before and they were so impressed. Thanks to all the staff.

Stayed 8th November 2013

We are repeat visitors to this hotel and are already booked for February. However, the hotel had clearly stretched itself beyond its limit this weekend which detracted from the atmosphere somewhat. Bar area limited by set up of additional restaurant tables; pre dinner service somewhat chaotic and lacking our expected nibbles and menu order service with drinks; no warm bread pre starter and,I may be wrong, but the lack of white linen tablecloths at dinner made the meal seem a little down market. Quality of food still very high but these little extra make all the difference. We hope normal service will be resumed a few months from now when we return.a

Stayed 5th November 2013

Enjoyed our stay. The Cardrona is a beautiful hotel, the only criticism was when we arrived we were told our room wasn't ready and after 45 minutes wait we went back to reception and were told they forgot to tell us it was ready. The food was lovely but again the only criticism was it was the same menu each night..

Stayed 3rd November 2013

The service was prompt,polite and professional.The room was spotless as were the pool and leisure facilities.There were no chocolates in our room however when I asked at reception this was quickly remedied.The dinner and breakfast were well presented and good quality. Overall a relaxing stay on a sunny autumn day. I will definitely be back.

Stayed 1st November 2013

Unfortunately didn't get the room upgrade , but this didn't diminish our enjoyment. Great leisure facilities, but you need to book treatments well ahead to avoid disappointment . Wonderful location , great hotel, excellent value and we hope to return.

Stayed 1st November 2013

The hotel was lovely and staff all very friendly and helpful. Views from our bedroom were great.

Stayed 29th October 2013

There were no chocolates in room, i did mention at reception, but they still did not offer them.There is not enough lounge space for sitting having a drink, when the hotel is busy. ie.... before dinner & after dinner. we had to go back to our room after dinner.

Stayed 27th October 2013

On arrival our booking was incorrect, but was sorted out quickly and satisfactorily. Breakfast on our last morning was quite slow.

Stayed 27th October 2013

If we had been staying for more than 2 days i would not have eaten in hotel as menue was very limited for my taste. wine a bit over priced compaired to other hotels i have stayed in. Istill thought you hotel was very good and what a lovely place it is situated in thank you

Stayed 26th October 2013

Overall a very good hotel. Poor pillows in the bedroom is about the only critique I could give, everything else was very good. Would recommend to friends.
