A traditional if little old fashioned hotel. However rooms were clean & tidy, mine had plenty of space. Basic TV & some digital channels. Good heating for cold autumn days. Bathroom clean & tidy if slightly in need of some doing up. What it 'lacked' in modernity was more than made up by solid customer service. I was part of... More

Spent three nights with a birdwatching group in this very comfortable hotel. Even though it was a group booking with our own menu the management seated us in a large alcove in the dining room which made it like party time.

The room was clean but stiflingly hot - we assume due to poor insulation in a modern extension - and no way of creating a through-draft on opening the windows. And the mattresses on the beds were old and uncomfortable. More

Having visited Castle Douglas in the past, I was looking forward to a 2 night stay, and booked the best room available at The Doulgas Arms. Unfortunately, cleanliness and maintenance do not seem to be a priority at this hotel. The bathroom sink was leaking underneath, 7 lightbulbs needed replacing, and we found the jacuzzi a bit disgusting after we... More

Being nearly lunchtime we went in after walking into an empty bar with no staff we were seated in the dining room after being unsure of where we should go and looked forward to a nice bar snack. We have a six year... More

I was advised by a friend to check out the Douglas Arms Hotel if i ever got the chance. We had a trip to the area in May and i decided to do just that. What a lovely time we had. The staff were attentive and courteous and i got the feeling that nothing would have been too much trouble.... More
