I liked it but was prepared by reading reviews saying it was not a Hotel in the normal understanding of one. Managers helpful and pleasant by way of changing some of the food for breakfast and snacks left in my room. Also I couldn’t open velox window so twice they came up to assist. No parking onsite was no problem but could be in high season.

Stayed 4 nights

Certainly the two beds were extremely comfortable, but we were not impressed when, for example, the bathroom door was too ill-fitting to even close, less still lock! One of the sash windows would not stay up, and we were left sleeping in an extremely hot bedroom. The fact that there is no 'proper' breakfast (other than a tray in the room with e.g. a couple of exceedingly cheap cardboard pots of porridge to be mixed with boiling water, and unappetising, cheapest 'croissants' etc) made us feel that the £660 we were paying for just four nights was ridiculously over-priced, especially when there is no private parking for hotel guests. North Berwick itself was as beautiful as ever, so it's high time that the owners of The Folly Hotel put some money and effort into restoring this building (which, we have since been told, was once public toilets!!!!). Only then might staying there be an attractive experience........
