Despite being very busy there was very little or no wait to be served. The outside of the building could do with a few repairs and freshening up but this did not have any impact on our stay.

I was Very disappointed. We went with friends that had been there several years ago. They couldn't praise it enough. They were disappointed too, and kept apologising for the let down. Most of the staff was not customer orientated. The reception staff were great. Although the rooms were clean we had to ask for coffee and tea at reception as it wasn't topped up, and the main areas didn't feel clean. It was fairly busy and the staff could hardly keep up. We enjoyed the stay as the surrounding area. And town was Great. This was a special occasion and the hotel let it down. We expected a bit of luxury but didn't get it.

The staff really make this property, nothing was too much trouble for them. Our room was very comfortable. The food was great. The swimming pool was generally quiet and the steam room was a wonderful temperature. We had a fabulous couple of nights here but it was so relaxing it felt like longer. Don’t forget to check out the Gin School too. The town of Peebles is within easy walking distance and there are lots of interesting places to visit in the surrounding area if you have a car

Nice hotel but a bit dated

What you see is what you get. It’s an old building and is a bit dated even despite recent refurbishment. They have plenty of activities and we used the Pure Spa which was lovely. Overall, the hotel was pretty expensive for what we got, though will probably go again in future as I love Peebles.

Wish we could have stayed longer. Great for families. Had large room for 5. Our view was amazing. Bagpipes and drums in the evening was a bonus! Kids had plenty to do in and around the hotel. Pool area was clean. Check in staff was excellent and helpful. The gentlemen seemingly in charge of dining was on top of everything and lovely. It was great seeing younger folk learning for the summer. Gin was great. Would recommend for a mini getaway. Scotland is amazing.

A once grand hotel in desperate need of investment and renovation. Staff have not been trained to what most people would deem acceptable standards but a) this is not their fault b) they were so pleasant, polite and charming that you just had to let things slide. Lift was broken but again, staff were more than happy to help with bags and the luggage lift. Abysmal value for money considering what you could get in same area for less but “ok” stay.
