Review 3：Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was lovely. Building very old but very tastefully decorated to enhance original features and was nice nd warm hroughout
Review 4：windows a bit draughty and room felt a bit cold once the radiators cooled down but this is because it is an old grade 2 building abd they have been renovating this year plus they have to get planning permission to do any work so no fault of their own This is my only fault . i would definately stay there again superb.
Review 5：Lovely charming old building staff all friendly and helpful Food was great
Review 6：Excellent, friendly staff at both check in, and at meal times. Moffat is a lovely town in a beautiful part of Scotland and the Buccleuch Arms is in a perfect location. Great food, service and ambience. We would certainly stay here again.

Review 9：Hotel is a little dated but the owners are working hard to grow and improve the business
Review 10：We received the most generous and genuine of welcomes. It was like being welcomed into a friends home. I've worked in the hotel industry for over 25 years now and never received a better check-in experience!. Better even than many's a 5 star hotels around the world..I'll be bringing the lessons learned back to work with me!
Review 11：Idont think there was anything not to like
Review 12：We enjoyed the easy access to shops The hotel was very clean All the staff we met were friendly and helpfulI
Review 13：Disco until 1:00 a:m right under our room which we weren't pre-warned about until we had checked in. Small discount offered when we checked out, which was appreciated, but would have preferred a good night's sleep to a bit off the bill.
Review 14：Our room was very tired with the heated towel rail in the ensuite hanging off the wall and wooden surfaces - window and door frames badly in need of painting
Review 15：This is a brilliant hotel. Perfect for motorcyclists. They have garages for parking bikes, bike cleaning facilities & will organize rides around the superb surrounding roads. We stayed for two nights before continuing on a tour to the north of Scotland. Next time we will stay longer! I cannot recommend it enough.
Review 16：Having to go home after just 1 night
Review 17：Fantastic. This hotel is well known as a destination for motorcyclists but you don't need to be a biker to appreciate the warmth and friendliness of the welcome and the quality of the food.
Review 18：A warm, friendly welcome.The food was delicious and the service was excellent.The rooms were clean and comfortable. The public rooms celebrated the traditional features of the building with a log fire and with pictures of the old town of Moffat.
Review 19：Noticed on arrival how stressed one member of staff was. Took 24 hours to locate a hairdryer by which time we were leaving. The hairdryer in our room was broke.
Review 20：It is central in Moffat so ideal for New Year. The room and bathroom was clean.The bed was comfortable but I would have preferred more conventional headboards on the beds. The staff were quite nice but seemed under pressure most of the time that we were there.
Review 21：Nothing comes to mind.
Review 22：Friendly welcome. Key for main door if needed to come in late. Clean room, plenty of towels,good powerful shower, well heated room, (had to turn radiator off), comfortable bed. Didn't use Wi-Fi so can't comment on that. Excellent breakfast, cheerful local staff. No hidden extras.
Review 23：Being woken at 6.30am with a noisy delivery truck right outside the window.
Review 24：Welcoming staff, dog-friendly, clean and comfortable with a great breakfast.
Review 25：I have seen Moffat on the signposts for 50 years and this is the first time We've stayed overnight there. It is definitely worth a longer stay. The hotel was comfortable , a little tired and definitely faded but the staff looked after us really well and were very responsive to any queries we had. The food was very good. Altogether a very enjoyable "stop-off" We shall come again
