“Business With a lot of Pleasure”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

This about the 5th time I have stayed at the Somerton House on Business. I have clients in and around the Dumfries and Lockerbie area and I always stay at this Hotel. I found it because on one of my visits years ago my usual hotel was full. I have never gone back to that hotel mainly because I always receive a warm welcome from the staff which has never changed in all the time I have stayed here.

I usually arrive early evening on the first night and always have the bar menu which is quite extensive. I can thoroughly recommend the Chicken Stanley washed down with a pint or two of Belhaven beer .

I have stayed in most of the bedrooms and all are comfortable and I have a good night's sleep. Breakfast is very good and and sets one up for a days business.

I recommend the Somerton House along with the staff this is great place to base yourself for a few days business in the borders of Scotland.

“Awesome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012

Fantastic hotel. Staff were great and really friendly and welcoming. Room was lovely, clean, warm and a very inviting. Evening meal in the conservatory was lovely. Breakfast was tasty. Would stay here again without hesitation as nothing was too much trouble and was really good value for money.

“Christmas”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

Living locally to the Somerton Hotel, I have never had need to stay at the hotel overnight, but having used their restaurant regularly, I would recommend them as good value, excellent cuisine and exceptionally friendly staff. They have always been attentive towards the needs of my elderly mother which is appreciated. My family and I have just enjoyed an excellent and memorable Christmas Day, compliments of the Somerton Hotel.

“Very likely to stay again”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Somerton House Hotel by chance. The RAC ensured we had hotel accomodation when our car broke down on the motorway near Lockerbie. We had no idea that we would be in such an amazing place. The bedroom was palatial with a four poster bed, 40 inch TV and ensuite bathroom with a jacuzzi bath. We enjoyed a first class meal of superbly cooked steak from the owners own beef herd in beautifully decorated surroundings. The owner and staff made us very welcome until our replacement car arrived the following day. We will very likely stay again.

Room Tip: Room 6 was fantastic
