We loved the Nithsdale Hotel and Sanquhar! I was fortunate to attend an Art Residency week held at the Nithsdale. We were not sure what to expect from a very small town in Southwest Scotland. …

Spent a great week as part of an artist residency program. The hotel is located in the center of town just a short walk from the train station. The rooms were nice, comfortable, and well maintained and the shower had great water pressure. The staff was amazing! Warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and would gladly stay there again. They make you feel immediately at home.

Would love to give a glowing review. But regrettably as they haven't replied to my Email and telephone message left. In regards to booking a room. This poor service doesn't give a lot off confidence in there professional standards and business plan.

The Nithsdale Hotel is a charming family run hotel located in the heart of Sanquhar. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the service is excellent, and the food in the restaurant and pub is delicious. The staff could not be more gracious or welcoming. They take pride in the hotel and as a result offer a welcoming, friendly and comfortable place to stay and enjoy.

The Nithsdale Hotel is situated in the centre of Sanqhuar, there is a little car park immediately opposite. We stopped here for lunch on our way to Dumfries. The locals were very friendly, as was the lady behind the bar. …
