Nice location, perfect as a base from which to explore the east coast. Room was very nice, tastefully curated, impeccably clean with a very comfortable King bed where we had expected a double. Food while limited in choice was superbly cooked and presented.

No privare parking and street parking was difficult at times. Stair access to rooms was a tad steep for us elderly types, but we managed with care. The bathroom was very spacious and thoughtfully designed. Unfortunately on the morning of our departure, the hot water was reduced in flow and was at best, luke warm. The shower was damaged with a broken valve lever which had clearly been repaired before although operable.

We have stayed here quite a few times now, and the staff, food, rooms and food are all excellent. The hotel really is the heart of the village, and whether staying for just one night or a few, everyone is very friendly, helpful, and the place is just a joy to be at!!

The only thing I could suggest, would be maybe serving breakfast a little earlier, say starting from 07.30, instead of 08.00, but this is only from the point of view that we were working, if the stay was for leisure, then this wouldn't be needed

Upon arrival, we got a warm welcome from the staff, and check-in was quick and easy. The room was spotlessly clean, spacious and comfortable, and the food served in the pub, including breakfast, is excellent quality and good value. While the pub is clearly popular with local residents, we heard no extra noise when in our room. There is a train station a few minutes away on foot, and it is served by trains which go directly to and from Edinburgh. East Linton itself is a quiet, charming village, 10-15 minutes away from Dunbar and North Berwick which have beaches and other attractions.

The nearby church bell is loud, but it does not ring during the night. The shower's water temperature was a little inconsistent. If your room is on the second floor, there are some low ceilings, even for shorter people like myself.

Great location for visiting relatives. Fantastic staff. Clean comfortable room. Spacious bathroom.

Limited evening menu. Breakfast service was slow. People want breakfast & be ready to go in the morning. Visitors were having to leave without breakfast as it was taking too long to take orders & serve.Coffee machine not working at breakfast one morning. Feel room rate was a bit expensive. Plumbing was noisy at night. I appreciate it is an old building with character.

The room we stayed in was lovely, nicely appointed with a superb bathroom. There was a great Breakfast Menu. The fresh berries and granola were delicious. We also ate dinner at the Crown on two nights. The menu is varied with a choice of pub favourites (including fish and chips, burger, etc) and some more healthy options (e.g., pan fried salmon). The beef roast on Sunday was delicious and for those with a sweet tooth, there is a good choice of desserts. There is a reasonable choice of wines and all are available by the glass. The staff too were very good, attentive, helpful and friendly. Overall, highly recommended.

Very friendly staff, Room (Town Square) was excellent and as per photographs, nice touches of coffee pods as well as usual Nescafe. Comfy bed with plenty of bedding and the room was spotless The bathroom was spacious with a bath and separate shower. Breakfast was plentiful and well cooked to order. We had a meal one evening and it was top quality, slightly limited menu but cooked to order and plentiful

A very small niggle but the room was slightly cool when we came back after being out all day. The radiators were only luke warm.

Lovely place - the staff were so friendly. We ate in the restaurant before we went to a wedding and then again in the morning. Delicious food and efficient, happy staff. Comfy beds and lovely shower.

The room was a tad hot and we couldnt work out how to open the window. Also, not very suited for tall people (hubby is tall at 6ft 4 which I know is bigger than most) but going up and down the stairs and trying to avoid the emergency light was difficult. Could have done with a mirror type dressing table with a seat to do my makeup / hair.

East Linton is a beautiful little village not far from North Berwick - would definitely go back. Had dinner and Breakfast - both excellent.

Nothing to do with the hotel but the street was closed off due to roadworks which made it difficult to fine. Also lots of stairs with no elevator which made no difference to us and probably most people but just to be aware if someone has difficulty walking.

Breakfast was excellent, really enjoyed the haggis and black pudding. Sausage was fine, but maybe that’s because the other things stole the show. I really liked the mushrooms as well. Room was very clean and well-maintained. Bed was comfy. Bathroom was really nicely done.

Nothing I didn’t like. My wife has got coeliac disease and the breakfast options were maybe slightly more limited than usual.

The breakfast on the first morning was excellent, there were staffing problems on the second morning which the girl on duty dealt with as diplomatically as possible ie offered coffee toast etc while we were waiting.

The breakfast on the second morning could have been better but as I stated previously there were staffing issues on that morning.
