About The Market Inn Hotel

Anyone touring Dumfries and Galloway who wants a straightforward, well-run base will find The Market Inn Hotel a sensible choice. Set on Queen Street in the middle of Castle Douglas, it works equally well for a night on the way to Threave Castle or Galloway Forest Park, a golfing trip, or a quiet weekend away from the crowds. With just nine rooms, it has the feel of a small local inn rather than a big hotel, and the free on-site parking makes it an easy stop for anyone travelling by car.

Rooms are en-suite and kept clean and comfortable, with family rooms available for those travelling with children, and pets are welcome too. Downstairs there's a restaurant and a cosy bar with a decent range of drinks, and breakfast comes well-reviewed for its choice and quality. The hotel also has a garden, meeting rooms, and a bridal suite, making it a practical option for small weddings or gatherings as well as overnight stays. Staff are consistently described as friendly and attentive, and prices are considered fair for what's on offer.

Castle Douglas itself has plenty within walking distance, from pubs and restaurants to spots for an evening out, and the surrounding area offers golf courses and walking routes for those wanting to explore further afield. It's a hotel built around comfort and convenience rather than extras, which suits guests looking for a relaxed, well-located stay.

My wife and I recently celebrated our 10 year anniversary at The Market Inn. Emma and Megan went out of their way to accommodate everything from the point of booking. All of the staff on the night were fantastic. Food was top notch and everything went better than planned. Absolutely brilliant night was had by all! Thank you!

Stayed for a night with a group of friends, room was excellent. Very comfortable and clean. Staff were brilliant, helpful, friendly and attentive; couldn't fault them. Food was very good, not the most exciting menu in the world but food was tasty, well cooked, good sized portions and well presented. Bar was well stocked. Prices were reasonable. Everyone had a great stay. Big thanks to all the staff for making us feel very welcome.

Stayed here for 2 nights bed and breakfast. Nice large room which was warm and clean. We were advised if room was not warm enough they could supply a further heater which we did not require. Ate both nights in the hotel and food was good and piping hot. Bar had a friendly atmosphere.Staff were all very nice. Breakfast good. Will certainly return.
