Great price and room for the weekend. Only 3 dedicated parking spaces out front and if they're taken you have to move your vehicle every 2 hours around the square because of parking restrictions. Stairs and passages are tidy but could do with an update. Overall happy with the establishment.

Great breakfast and bar menu. Good cleanliness, bit dated kettle needed replacing, fixed room blind myself. Great value and no complaints. Nice village in the borders, near Edinburgh.

Great stay at The White Swan

We had a great stay at The White Swan. The staff were so helpful and pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble. Centrally located in the area made lots of local places, attractions and events available to us as well as all the things in Duns itself. The White Swan was built mid 1700s, with all the quirkiness of such an old building, so be prepared for some oddities such as the undulating floor near the window and en suite in the room we had. Loved our stay there.

Dated property with basic facilities

On arrival we were quickly greeted and shown to our room. First impression was that the stair carpet was old and dirty looking. The room was small but adequate, however the en-suite bathroom had a broken toilet seat and the door could not be closed. Dinner choices were limited. We chose lasagne but had to return one as it contained clingfilm. It was replaced and the friendly, helpful staff were apologetic, however the meal was of a poor standard and not very tasty. Breakfast was good value though.

6/10 Good

We stayed at the White Swan for a private party. The staff were very friendly and pleasant. Can't fault them. The breakfast was lovely. Our room gave us a laugh though. We stayed in the Family room on 2 levels. The floors were tilted in all directions so made the furniture lean in all directions and the drawers opened when you walked passed them. The beds was clean and comfortable but there was water left in the kettle and the spoons were dirty so I'm assuming they hadn't been checked from the last occupants. The lights didn’t work above both the sinks. But the shower and bath were clean and the water pressure was excellent when using the shower. Several of my family members were met with unfriendly banter from the locals who were in the bar watching the Rugby. I can only assume its because Scotland lost but it was a little uncomfortable.

2/10 Poor

The room we had was number 8 which was over the bar. We could not get to sleep because of the loud music playing

2/10 Poor

The music was very loud downstairs and we had an early start in the morning. We had no prior warning about the noise and it was too late to book somewhere else. The water flow to the shower was non existant.
