The G&A, as it is known locally, is the largest building in the centre of the picturesque town of Melrose, and is of a grand Victorian style although the original building is some 400 years old. The hotel has 29 guest bedrooms and also offers a public bar, Scott's Dining Room and three separate function and conference rooms.
All guest rooms are en suite, offering either a shower facility or bath and shower. The rooms are comfortably furnished and offer tea/coffee making facilities, a television with 12 digital channel selection, a direct dial telephone utilising digital lines which allow computer connectivity and also secure wireless internet access in most rooms. Please note that all rooms are only accessed from the main staircase as there is no lift in the building.
