Philipburn Hotel, BW Signature Collection

Located on the outskirts of Selkirk in wooded land, this Best Western Hotel was just right for a quiet rest. At the rear of the Hotel, there is a lawn and garden borders, which is very pleasant to sit out. The Room we had was a very good size as was the comfortable bed. The accommodation was clean and tidy. It was a little walk away from the hotel as this room was a garden room located to the rear. The food was very good as were the drinks. A return visit is very likely. less

My wife and I spent 2 nights at this venue over the May Day bank holiday period. The purpose of the visit was our friends wedding being held there. We booked a garden room which was very spacious and had lovely patio doors opening out into the gardens. The room was very clean and the double king size bed was excellent. My only complaint was no fridge in the room! The breakfast was very good and cooked on order. Everyone in the wedding party thought the special discount price of £160 pounds wasn’t really a special discounted price. I think a fair price when compare to others around the country would be no more than £100 per night. Overall a present stay, good breakfast and comfortable room only let down by no fridge in the room. less

Hotel located on the edge of Selkirk with a 20 minute slightly uphill walk back into town. Warm welcome and a large split level bedroom which was very clean with an updated bathroom, slightly dated decor, and a very comfortable bed. Check-in welcome was warm. Service from our waitress lacked warmth. Small bar and restaurant area and a small comfortable and quiet lounge next to reception. Food was tasty and there was plenty of it. Plenty of free parking and WiFi worked well. Would stay again if back in the area though not drawn back to the town itself. less

We booked a garden room which is in a modern extension. The advantage is that it's very peaceful with no one walking above you and you have your own little (semi)private patio. The wifi is fast too. You have to walk outside to get to the main hotel for breakfast but that's no great hardship. Breakfast was fine with a good selection on the cold platter. We ate in the restaurant one night and whilst it won't win any awards, we left happily replete. The waitress also suggested we take coffee in the lounge which was a nice touch. less

The room was really pleasant. It was spacious and airy and had access to a small outside area. It was difficult to judge the staff as they appeared to be totally harassed and always rushing. It is almost as though the place is being run on a shoe string with a minimum of staff. The card holding our key cards had obviously used before and had paper stuck over previous instructions. The fresh fruit at breakfast was minimal and to hear a guest whose wedding we has attended the previous evening thus having spent several hundred pounds, being asked to pay extra for a latte instead of a normal coffee made me realise that this is a small minded hotel that hasn't made the jump to the quality of service of its competitors. less
