- Nick (8/5): A very comfortable and enjoyable stay. - Nice hotel, perfect location. Comfortable and cosy room. Friendly staff and good food. Nothing to complain about
- William (9/5): - The location was perfect for exploring the local town. I didn't find any faults.
- Christine (8/5): - Clean facilities and friendly staff.
- Dave (8/5): Friendly staff, comfy bed and great breakfast. - Breakfast was great - tasty and plentiful, and with GOOD COFFEE - sadly rare at many hotels. Handy location and their evening meal menu looks great. I checked in at approx 19.15, and came down hoping for dinner at 19.45, but was told that service had finished. Would have been useful to have been told that at check-in. Never mind - will know for next time.
- Gert-Jan (9/5): Perfect break - Most friendly people, great food All good , small suggestion for new bed matras 😇
- Andrew (9/5): Very recommendable - I enjoyed our stay very much and appreciated the kind staff allowing us to check in when we arrived early. Parking is only on the street.

Dennis and Hazel Fant Having to book a table for our evening meals.
- Kris (8/5): Comfy stay with polite staff - Breakfast was nice and came in a suitable amount of time.
Staff kept the place clean and all were very friendly.
The hotel is also close to the centre so a little walk and you’re right next to the restaurantss etc. The shower pressure wasn’t that good so pretty hard to get showered appropriately.
Bacon was a bit cooked through which made it tough in the morning but i’m picking.

- Stuart (9/5): Great stay and will be back - Great breakfast, superb choice and plenty of decent options. Early start and everything was ready
Room was comfy and warm. Quiet through the night.
Superb restaurant for the evening meal - great choice and quality food Wee bittie stronger pressure in the shower
- Keava (10/5): - Such a lovely place and the staff were so nice - thank you for a great stay!
- Liz (3/5): Not impressed and certainly won’t return. Overall feeling was that it was understaffed and struggling to manage. - Location was handy for town centre. Staff friendly. Room was ok but bit shabby in areas. Toilet was poor. Window in bathroom was green with algae, toilet bowl was very unstable, flush was poor and high step into toilet was very tricky. Food in hotel was pub food but on the whole reasonable but on our 4th night a notice was posted on front door saying that no food would be available that evening due to having no chef. This was evident as food on last 2 mornings was not great. Some ingredients of breakfast missing but could have been sourced easily by staff.
- Nigel Gatherer (10/5): I would definitely stay at the Garret again. - Room was spacious and comfy. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was just what we wanted. I can't think of anything.
- Margaret (9/5): A pleasure - I found this a really relaxing place to stay, in a good location to give a feel of this special town. The room was very comforatble, a lot of thought had gone into choosing the decor and furnishings, well-chosen period pieces of furniture, in a style that was comfortable but not over-fussy. The bed was very comfortable with good quality linen. Good breakfast choices and tasty evening meals.
- mary (6/5): -
- Georgie (8/5): Would highly recommend - Excellent central location with very friendly staff, delicious bar supper and superb breakfast.

- Gillian (8/5): - Excellent breakfast
- Richard (8/5): - Our second stay at the Garret, great central location in town and for exploring the wider area. Friendly helpful staff, A lovely King room at a good price, with lots of natural light from big windows ( with shutters) and large bathroom . Handy to have the bar downstairs, and breakfast was 5 star with plenty of choice !
- David (7/5): - Close to the centre Shower cubicle is tiny and water pressure terrible.
- Martin (8/5): -
- John (9/5): Very enjoyable stay. - Delicious.

- Sara (8/5): - Dinner was nice. Great beer garden out back. Reception seemed a little bit tired when we got there. Walking around town, people were friendly.
- Beverley (8/5): -
- Richard (9/5): We enjoyed our stay and will return - Location, bar and bar staff Bathroom in room three was very small , Breakfast took quite a while to have the order taken from when we entered the breakfast room
- Marion (8/5): Ideal location, lovely staff and perfect breakfast in the Artists' Town - Perfect location to explore Kirkcudbright harbour and surrounding coastal paths. I brought my bike so this was an ideal starting point to discover the town and the local walks, and beaches. Had a most wonderful breakfast which kept me full for the whole day! Haggis was involved and it was delicious. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. I would return just for the breakfast ! Not much to report, I stayed one night at the top of the hotel - lovely single room, just perfect. My only tiny problem was that the en-suite air vent appears to be on all the time, but I brought my ear plugs so no big deal.

Frühstück mit extra Wünschen wurde frisch zubereitet und ließ keine Wünsche offen ..
Der Pub im Haus hatte einen sehr schönen Aussenbereich / Biergarten ... sehr gesellig Kein Parkplatz für die Motorräder ... standen vor dem Hotel .... kleine Nebenstraße

Our room was spacious and comfortable
Dinners were good. Breakfast could have been better. There were quite limited continental options available.
- Karen (7/5): Good location & clean room - Friendly staff, clean room but some what dated. Large breakfast, nothing special but more than adequate. Lumpy bed with a winter duvet on it when it's summer time, so far too hot to sleep under.
- catherine (8/5): -
- May Shiu (10/5): -
- paul (10/5): - Excellent location
- Lorraine (8/5): - Central to everything. Room was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately we missed breakfast on the last morning. There was no welcome pack in our room and we had to ask for WiFi password. One of the staff then advised that bfast was served later on a Sunday morning at 9.00am instead of 8 but this was wrong information as bfast is served at 8 am every morning.
- Stuart (6/5): - Not having any towels
- Clifford (8/5): - Good atmosphere
Comfortable nothing
- Mavis (8/5): One night stay - A very pleasant stay. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. Only negative was shower performance was poor. We found the duvet a bit heavy for summer but that's our personal preference. Evening meal was very nice and reasonably priced.
