Excellent place to stay.
The room was well appointed, the only downfall was the lack of a comfortable chair in the room. Staff were excellent and very helpful and polite.

You need to stay here!
I'd booked the wrong date by mistake, on arrival i realised and the woman on reception made a few calls, i then amended my booking to the correct date and luckily they had 1 room left! The staff went above and beyong with everything, service was fantastic, food was amazing, breakfast was amazing! The room was super clean and just what i needed after a 4 hour drive up from the midlands.

Comfortable stay near Edinburgh
The Craigie had the best breakfast of anywhere we stayed during our trip to Great Britain. The room was plenty big for our family and had modern amenities. It was convenient for daily excursions to Edinburgh. It was also nice to have a big car park since we had rented a car for our trip. We would stay here again!

The Craigie is excellent hotel with lovely rooms. Our dinner there was excellent. Our breakfast was also very good. The staff were helpful & friendly. My only negative comment is that the carpet in the dining area & on the stairs needs replacing; it is worn & stained.

This property is gorgeous, and the staff, including the owner, are wonderful. The room was spacious and very clean. We were there during a bit of a heat wave and the hotel provided a fan. Complimentary breakfast is off of the regular menu, and since the food is phenomenal, it really adds to the value of this incredible hotel. Deserves 10 stars!!
