Nice, spacious room with everything you could possibly need and more. Great breakfast with lots of nice choices. Conveniently close to the bus stop from Berwick-Upon-Tweed. The only slight downside was that the pub patrons were noisy outside on the Saturday night.

We made the mistake of staying on a Saturday night. It was quite noisy from the bar below and there was no space in the restaurant for us to have dinner.

An OK hotel
The hotel was adequate, Clean, friendly and reasonably comfortable. A rubber mat in the shower would have been good as I found it difficult not to slip. and the food was good but more attention to quality rather than quantity is needed.

Situated in the center of Kelso the Queens Head is in the perfect location for the area attractions. The staff were attentive, solicitous and helpful. The room was well appointed and very comfortable. The hotel was very clean. The breakfast was substantial and delicious. Dinner in the bar was very noisy but the staff obliged me moving to a quieter table.
