Exceptional
staff were friendly attentive and always prepared to help
rooms /bathrooms clean and well presented.
Food great
I would have preferred a separate area for kids in the dining areas as I didnt like to hear their electronic toys which parents gave them to keep them amused or kids running around

Poor
The location and proximity to the train were excellent!
The website talks about Sea View Rooms and River View rooms. We were given a room in the basement with the view of nothing in a room that reeked of chlorine. The one window that was below ground level looked out on concrete and fencing surrounding the parking lot of was dripping wet with condensation. The walls were paper thin and we could hear the person next door snoring and when he used the toilet - we could hear the entire thing as if we were in the same room. The room we were given was NOTHING like the beautiful rooms on the website.

The Hawes inn was a beautiful place to stay and full of character. Helpful friendly staff. We dined on our first night and the food was lovely. Our room was lovely and very spacious with views of the bridges.
Our only issue was bad nights sleep due to the uncomfortable hard bed and hollow pillows.

The location is great and the rooms are vey nice and warm. The breakfast is huge and good value
Some people may not like the rumble of the trains trundling over the Forth Bridge starting around 5.30. It doesn’t bother me they been there together for 150 years.

Queensferry is a lovely little town just outside Edinburgh, and we chose to stay here for our final night before flying home. One of the advantages of The Hawes Inn was the parking provided for guests, which was very convenient as we were travelling by rental car. We also took the train into Edinburgh for our last evening, and the journey only takes around 15 minutes.
The breakfast area had a pleasant atmosphere and offered lovely views of the three bridges. We would also like to give special mention to the older lady working at breakfast, who was exceptionally sweet, welcoming and friendly. Unfortunately, she was the only member of staff who made us feel genuinely welcome during our stay.
Unfortunately, our overall experience was a great disappointment. When we were shown to our room, which was located in a separate building that required us to leave the main hotel to access it, I genuinely wondered whether we had arrived at the right place. The room looked nothing like the photographs presented on Booking.com.
The room was extremely worn and tired, and the bathroom was particularly unpleasant. Almost every surface and detail was covered in heavy rust, the shower hose was leaking, and the overall impression was far from clean and well-maintained. The rooms were also very poorly soundproofed, meaning we could clearly hear other guests, traffic and people passing by.
Considering the condition of the room and the overall experience, the price was simply far too high for what we received. The hotel promises a lot through its photographs and presentation, but unfortunately, our experience fell well short of those expectations.
We would happily return to Queensferry, as we really enjoyed the town, but we would definitely choose different accommodation next time. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend The Hawes Inn based on our experience.

Pleasant
The sheets were fragrance free, which was really nice. The staff were super helpful and nice, and the pub was great. It’s an old historic inn with a lot of character, which was cool!
However regarding the actual room itself, for people without “must” allergies, this place would be fine. However, as someone with asthma, this place was not a good fit for me.

Location, food in bar was good.After service dealing with our concerns from the property was excellent including a generous discount .
Inaccessible from railway station without prior notice . A taxi is the only way if you come by train . A very steep staircase in the hill behind the hotel was the only way to the hotel on foot not suitable with a suitcase of any size . Nowhere to put suitcase had to leave it on the floor of the room Broken toilet seat.

Location and very dog friendly
Most of the staff were lovely but the exception was one of the staff at the counter on our arrival. Indifferent to us.
One man who checked us in stood drinking a glass of water while he tapped us in on the computer!
The lady who served breakfast was very friendly and welcoming. Very helpful
