We visited Sanquhar for a short break and chose to stay at the Nithsdale Hotel for two nights, having previously stopped in for a meal. Our stay fully lived up to expectations. The staff were exceptionally friendly, and we were impressed by the restaurant. We also felt very welcomed at the bar, which even has its own separate pool table—a nice touch. Our ground-floor room was comfortable and well-appointed, with a cozy bed and en-suite facilities that made our stay even more enjoyable.

Everything was quite nice in the room, clean, comfy bed and pillows. Our only complaint was how you had to enter the hotel from the parking lot .. carrying your luggage through front entrance, through the resturant and through 4 doors, up the narrow stairs was a bit inconvenient for 2 seniors. The resturant dinner was very tasty by on the skimpish side.

Convenient for Dumfries House

Hotel was very clean and tidy throughout, staff were exceptionally helpful and the food was good. Outdoor area at rear was 'functional' but not appealing and the car park could do with a lot of attention.
