We enjoyed our stay there. The room was interesting. The food and drinks were excellent. Hot water that didn't take forever to get there. The grounds were very well kept. The on-site falconry lesson were very awesome too.

The Melville is a delightful property! Rooms are impeccably clean and comfortable. The restaurant is hands down the best thing about the hotel - absolutely fantastic staff and wonderful selection of meals. The decor is cozy and appropriately Scottish with ceiling beams and a fireplace. I will definitely stay here again when I travel for work. Priced very reasonably. This hotel delivers excellence.

The property is a world away but close to town. From the second you arrive to the moment you leave, the staff is attentive and informative, and they go out of their way to anticipate your needs. The grounds are nice, including a resident peacock and cow, with fox friends playing in the field. The decor is truly spectacular, with layer upon layer of antiques, interesting pieces and detail. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable with still and sparkling water, cookies and chocolates, as well as an available mini bar. Rhubarb, the restaurant, serves beautiful food - breakfast was absolutely delicious with many options to choose from. During the evenings we sat in different rooms enjoying the decor, fireplaces and a wee dram to top off the day.

Good quiet location but not much in Bonnyrigg or the surrounding towns. Handy for Edinburgh and Lothian coastal resorts. For us must see was nearby Roslin Chapel. Only nuisance was traffic on bypass at the nearest junctions.
We booked for 1 night at the Castle and we were really looking forward to it, only to find out that the restaurant at the hotel was 'fully booked'. They said the orangery was not in function at evening and the dungeon was too small to feed everyone at the hotel!! Disgrace, if you cannot accommodate dinner for all guest you should not offer any hotel rooms. This place is middle of nowhere and you shouldn't have to book in advance to eat at the hotel restaurant. Spa dated dated and not very hot water in pool or sauna.
Good suite, comfortable room. Atmospheric historic building with creaky stairs and rambling corridors, old-style furnishings. High quality dining experience in a unique dungeon setting. Good range of breakfast choices in the light Orangerie with views across the pasture and woods. Very polite and helpful staff. Lovely location with long woodland walks. Easy to get to Edinburgh by park and ride or train.
The castle was beautiful, location near Edinburgh perfect for our car trip around Scotland. We had a beautiful, large bedroom in the tower which was beyond expectations! We had our dinner in the dungeon, a wonderful experience, the food was 5 star as was the service. Breakfast in the Orangerie topped off an absolutely perfect stay!
The grounds and the hotel itself are beautiful. The entire outside is picturesque. The staff was helpful. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The rooms in the castle are beautiful, the dungeon restaurant is super cool and the food overall was very good. The free spa is nice, but can get crowded. Close enough to city center.
Hotel staff were friendly and helpful, room service was great, efficient and well priced, accommodation was clean and facilities were great.
SPA facilities were good, well run and staff very well organised.
