We enjoyed a nights stay after a busy day at the highland show, the pool, sauna and hot tub were an excellent way to relax after a busy day. An excellent well run hotel with attentive and helpful staff, breakfast was a well stocked and tasty buffet. Room was comfortable and tidy, perfect for a family stay. Would highly recommend the Peebles Hydro to anyone.

The only thing about the room was there was a lot of dog hairs in our family room, which induced my daughters allergies and also No Hooks for coats dressing gowns or towels in the bedroom or bathroom. Lots to do for familys and would totally recommend a stay with children. The staff were very attentive and helpfull and all in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed the hotel social areas and the dog friendly atmosphere. We liked the pool but it is small for the size of hotel. Our room was fine but it was disappointing to have a large stain on the carpet, a huge chip on the sink and badly damaged bath end panel. Breakfast was great! I would bring grandchildren here though as it would be good for them + dogs.

Very nice 1 night getaway. Nice large room with pleasant decor. Met family members for a really good and imo a very reasonably priced lunch. My wife and me stayed over and ate in the restaurant in the evening. Staff were excellent and attentive with an excellent meal served very quickly. Already looking forward to planing a return visit

2 night stay with other adult family members. The hotel staff (at all levels) were lovely and worthy of mention from contact with them pre stay and during. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel itself is dated in parts but it is a big old building that will no doubt take a lot to maintain.

Property was a bit tired. Interconnected family room was good but no tv for kids. Breakfast was good but dinner in the grill was underwhelming. Overall stay was ok.

This 20s rebuild of a Victorian hydro therapy hotel has truly stunning views. All rooms seemed ‘front’ facing to capitalise on those views. Honestly wonderful. Our room was bright, painted a fresh and modern sage green and, once again, with glorious views. Bed was on the stiffer side which is my preference for comfort and shower and bath warm and strong. Pretty standard for these older hotels as part of a smaller chain. Gym was very quiet on a Saturday evening but with plenty there and truly astonishing aircon for a hotel gym! Accessed through the pool so it was trainers off to get there. Pool seemed very kid friendly and a good size. Definitely an ‘end of maintenance/decoration’ cycle feel to much of the hotel (especially some damp peeling ceilings) but the social areas are charming enough and the main dining room was a lovely space clearly kept fresh for weddings. Hotel was spotlessly clean with great staff - and plenty of them! Post Brexit many hotels seemed to be suffering staff crises, not here. LOTS to do in the nearby area, even if it’s just coffee or cake in Peebles itself. The cocktails were (ahem) made with gusto and plenty of booze, though definitely not to traditional recipes! The ‘cocktail bar’ was more of a feel of a pub snug than a ‘modern’ cocktail bar (if that’s what you are expecting) but it’s welcoming with an open fire. Lovely hotel but with a slightly dated feel that may take the shine off if you’re expecting ‘luxury’

One night stay. Enjoyed pool and spa facilities. Pleasant food and atmosphere in the bar. Very disappointing breakfast - cold meat and cheese buffet consisted of salami and vacuum packed red leicester cheese, basic supermarket sliced bread and no option of freshly prepared hot food. Don't understand why shower/bath gel is not provided. Comfortable seating in the conservatory would be welcome. I would like to see a return to more formal dining in the restaurant. I understand you are now catering for a different audience (families) however I do think you could have achieved this without sacrificing the atmosphere of the dining experience. Average value for money.
