Nice hotel and perfect for our 2-night stay
Pros:

Nice room
Good breakfast
Enjoyed a late nightcap in their very small bar with some fellow guests

Cons:

Our room was on a down stair level and had some difficulty getting our cases up and down the stairs (the fact that we were visiting from Australia and had luggage for our 4-week trip probably made this more of a challenge than it would be for other guests)

Netter Aufenthalt in Dunbar!
Pros:

Großes sauberes Zimmer, freundliches Personal, nette kleine Bar. Im Sinne der Nachhaltigkeit muss man vorher angeben, was man sich zum Frühstück wünscht. Hafen und Strand fussläufig erreichbar. Im Hafen gibt es einen Imbissstand. Die angebotene Seafood sollte man sich nicht entgehen lassen. Am Ort befindet sich auch die älteste aktive Brauerei Schottlands.

Cons:

Das Zimmer lag zu einer mäßig befahrenen Straße hin. Dem Hotel zugute halten muss man allerdings, dass dies in der Beschreibung erwähnt wurde.

Great hotel
Pros:

Lovely hotel just a few minutes off the A1 Easy to find and plenty of parking
Quick and easy check in then shown to our room (3) which was beautiful and looked newly renovated We had a room to the rear but that suited us as it was very quiet Lovely heavy curtains kept out the light Bed and pillows are the best we’ve ever slept in - so comfortable and plump
Shower room was also newly refurbished to a high standard Shower power wasn’t the best but we did appreciate that it’s an old building and we are led to believe that the owners are looking into this small issue
a pre ordered breakfast next day was delicious and freshly cooked
Breakfast cereals , yoghurts , juices were also available
Dunbar itself is a lovely town with a working harbour which we enjoyed watching with a coffee
We will most certainly be back and will stay at Dunmuir hotel without a doubt
