The two restaurants (Broc Bar and Stables) were really lovely with great food - both the dinners and breakfasts we had were amazing and couldn’t be faulted. The outdoor courtyard area was also lovely to enjoy a cocktail in when the sun was shining. The decor inside the hotel was beautiful. Staff couldn’t have been more friendly and attentive - it really was excellent service and attention to detail throughout. Also loved the turn-down service and leaving bag of water/flapjacks.

A suitable location for exploring East Lothian, visiting Edinburgh and, to some extent, Berwickshire. Well suited as a base for cycling/walking or as a destination given there are decent food options e.g. cafe Lantern Rouge and the hotels.
Yester castle ruins which has the "Goblins Hall" is a short walk from the town.

A beautiful untouched Scottish village.
A beautiful untouched Scottish village. Surrounded by lovely woodland and rolling hills. Near historic Haddington. A few hundred feet from the hotel are the imposing and elegant gates to Yester House. There is a nice cafe round the corner and a village shop. The church has a 17th to 18th century interior. One of the ministers emigrated and became a signatory of the American Declaration of Independence. So free-thinking!

There were no downsides to Gifford in our opinion.
There were no downsides to Gifford in our opinion. A picturesque, historic village perfectly situated for country walks, access to plenty historic castles and stunning beaches (Dirleton, Gullane, North Berwick and more) whilst also offering easy access to Edinburgh city centre. We went there by car, but there are buses into Edinburgh and a short taxi drive away there is a train station. For those with a car and an interest in Scottish history the castles at Tantallon (sadly closed at the moment for safety reasons) where the medieval powerhouse of the Douglas family lived and Direlton and Fast are worth visits in addition to the more obvious Edinburgh castle. A quiet location but with lively bars in the evenings giving an opportunity to meet local people. I recommend the atmosphere, with log fires and comfy couches, and the food at the Goblin 'Ha hotel although we didn't go in the other bar/hotel so this is no reflection on its service.

Could not comment on the Wi-Fi as did not try it out.
Could not comment on the Wi-Fi as did not try it out. Had to be at work for 8am, so couldn't try the breakfast. Room clean and comfortable, Excellent Evening Meal. Overall pleased with hotel premises.
The location was good, the village small quiet and interesting. The outside of the Hotel was really nice, the bath towels were large and soft and our evening meal was good. The owner was friendly and showed us up to our room, explaining about meals etc, but was quite offhand when we advised him that 9:30 was too late for our breakfast. The young man who served our evening meal was also friendly and attentive.
Fabulous staff friendly and helpful.
Food was very delicious in the hotel restaurant. Very fast service and staff very nice.
Around 11pm i realised i never mentioned my allergy for feathers (duck feathers pillows)
Went downstairs to check if my pillow can be swapped not even 5 minutes later lovely girl bring pillows for me😊 really nice hotel.
Lovely picturesque village with a lot of greenery, playing field, park and off licence. It felt very safe and we’d happily return for another stay during the summer. Also the beds were comfortable and the bedding was hotel standard. My wife loved the sofa and the open plan living space is perfect for families.
It was a last minute booking, I had stayed there only 10 days before.
The hotel is a traditional old hotel with very pleasant rooms.
Spotlessly clean, comfortable bed and good shower.
Dinner and breakfast excellent.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
lovely traditional hotel in a beautiful village. staff were friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. we ate there a few times and food was good. pizza night on Friday was great idea too. Nice lounge and beer garden meant plenty of places to sit.
The location was very good for exploring the surrounding areas.The rooms were very clean and the hotel was very comfortable and welcoming, staff helpful and friendly. We will definitely be returning.
Friendly staff and locals.Lovely old school hotel my beloved late partner would have liked it here.We were 4 lads on a golfing trip.Breakfast was outstanding.Room was more than decent.
Traditional Old style Hotel centrally located in the town with free parking. exceptionally clean throughout. great food, polite helpful staff and great value for money.
Lovely village. Waitress in the outdoor area was incredible! Chips were lovely! Bed was comfy, charming wee hotel and they were very accommodating for our dogs.
Gifford is a lovely Scottish village although there are limitations with any kind of activities and without a car i would probably never have stayed there
