What guests think
The Folly Hotel delivers a no-frills, mostly self-check-in stay in a prime North Berwick location by the beach and golf course, with many guests praising clean, cozy rooms and handy in-room snacks while others report limited amenities and upkeep concerns.
Service feedback is mixed: self check-in works for many, but several struggled to contact staff or get help promptly, though others found the team friendly and accommodating when reached. Breakfast is not cooked; instead, continental items and snacks are placed in rooms, which some enjoy while others find basic or inconsistently replenished, and the bar/lounge is often closed. Expect stairs and no on-site parking, occasional noise and small rooms, but an excellent base if location matters more than full-service amenities.
