Just back from a lovely few nights away at the hetland hall hotel , beautiful place , room was spacious and perfect , food was spot on , breakfast was help yourself continental and hot food was cooked to order , evening meal was a two course set menu which had a lovely varied choice or you could choose something from the a la carte menu. All the girls in the restaurant were lovely , polite and friendly and always making sure everything was right with your meals. Over all a gem of a place and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place as a base in the Gretna/Dumfries arra

Lovely hotel and lovely big comfy room - no lift though so lots of stairs to 2nd floor. Drinks were very reasonable and food was good. 9 miles outside of Dumfries.

No booking was received by Hetland Hall so we turned up at the Hotel to no room booked. Receptionist did not apologise, just said it wasn't the hotels fault as the booking was made through a 3rd party company. Found staff on the whole quite unhelpful with the exception of some. We ended up having to almost argue with the receptionist to get the deal we had originally booked which I feel was totally unacceptable. No apology or any sort of helpful approach was received. It was a sort of take it or leave it approach. Breakfast staff were talking about 'miserable mags' which I presume was the chef, again very unprofessional in front of customers. Breakfast on both mornings was completely different, first morning a very small portion. 2nd morning an average breakfast however I feel they should be uniformed and the same no matter what chef is on shift. Room very clean, bathroom window was drafty and was actually closed although so drafty the beads on the window blew all night. Room card stopped working after the 1st night, when went back down to reception again the receptionist was very blunt about it, almost like it happens all the time. In summery I think the staff are more like 2* and the hotel should be a 3* at the most.

Super hotel and staff, will certainly visit again but get a ground floor room as the stairs were difficult for myself. Would have liked to have been offered an option of the a la carte menu and paid any extra.

Sadly disappointed by room allocated to us on arrival , were not told the lift was only available to first floor & in our mid-seventies should not be expected to lug our luggage up flights of stairs let alone have to constantly walk up them each time we went out & returned . Upon finally finding the room on the second floor we were totally shocked to find it was basically an attic room , tiny with only one chair , no room to move , no window ( only a semi skylight which was impossible to see out of as in the roof ) & oppressive due to coombed ceiling . My husband went down to reception & had the room changed to one a floor down but still a very disappointing outlook , one small window overlooking a huge red rubbish skip & car park at rear from bathroom & from the actual room even poorer as we overlooked a flat roof & extension . We have had several breaks at lesser hotels through your company & enjoyed far better accommodation & would question if we were discriminated against because we were booked through you ? Other than receptionist , have only praise for the excellent staff , housekeeping & restaurant , always pleasant & welcoming , nothing too much trouble despite being so busy & food excellent at night , cooked breakfast came with several items burned to a crisp so not greatly edible & why were some diners asked if they wanted extra bacon whereas we were not , I only had three items so feel once again a bias against those of us on a deal . Would we return ? Has to be no , may be lovely to look at from the exterior but completely wasted by inferior rooms & outlook .

Spent 2 very enjoyable nights at this hotel. Room was large and decorated to a very high standard. Food and service was very good and if we return to this area in the future we would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time we have stayed at Hetland Hall. The standard of the room this time was every bit as good as the last time all be it was a smaller room.I think I will pay extra for a bigger room next time. The service by all the friendly staff is superb.We had dinner on the first night from a fixed choice menu which was fine for us. The food as before was superb.Breakfast excellent. We will be back as soon as we can for another break at Hetland Hall.

Hotel is Stunning with lovely grounds. We stayed in room 105 and it was amazing if I was being picky it would be that there was no water or dressing gowns in room but apart from that it was a fantastic stay

Very nice and clean room, modern and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Perhaps the breakfast could be warmer and the bartender could have assisted the waitresses in the dining room, particularly as they seemed to be under pressure and the bemed quiet. We hope to revisit soon, thank you.

Gorgeous 4 star hotel. Only a couple of issues. In the bar my G&T was handed to me in a half pint glass!!!! When I asked for a gin glass I was told "they are all being used". The bar was not that busy so I can't understand why a 4 star hotel can run out of gin glasses? I also had to ASK for a slice of lemon with my gin...to be told they didn't have any??? Not great service for a 4 star hotel! The bedroom was absolutely stunning and the only issues I found were, plastic spoons with the complimentary coffee and no "grab" rail to assist getting in and out if the rather deep bath.

We had a lovely overnight stay at a very reasonable price. Hotel beautiful and room very nice. Spotlessly clean. Food was simple but delicious. Only thing missing was possibly a wee bit of entertainment after dinner. Would definitely go back.

stayed overnight whilst travelling to Lake district, stayed here twice before, it is now in new ownership and has been given a much needed revamp, friendly staff ,rooms much improved . Couple of points however, there is a lift but its at other end of hotel -a long walk for people with mobility issues then had to walk back the length of hotel to get to room. waited over 20 minutes after being seated for dinner till meal order taken. lastly when i went to check out next morning I was presented with a bill for 2 coffees charged to my room account at 4pm the previous day -a purchase not made by me and whilst it was resolved quickly it left me rather annoyed (enough to write about it here) jusch you bill at check out.
