Overall Ratings & Reviews Peebles Hydro Hotel

Very pleasant old style large hotel. Needs some updating, but room still comfortable enough though bath took a long time to fill. Good breakfast selection, no queues during week but on Saturday very busy - a popular wedding venue which also filled up the car parking. Lovely grounds with various activities for families and children, nice pool and leisure facilities. Dinner one evening was good but restaurant a bit bright and lacking ambience. Bar area with log fire lovely though music is not in line with the average clientele and put some people off. Some old classic piano bar stuff would be better. Great location for walking into the town and lovely walks along the Tweed and trips to other towns. We stayed 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time.

Lovely hotel great location breakfast was excellent choices i would have preferred if there was water fountains available throughout this hotel like other hotels which would be handy !

We had a really nice family stay. Relaxing hotel with plenty to do and only a short walk in to Peebles.

good solid hotel

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 really enjoyed Peebles Hydro .The place is so peaceful. The staff are very professional and friendly.

Welcoming. Staff are wonderful,good superb. A choice of places to eat ,done either smart or casual. Relaxing atmosphere.

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.

Meal service in the bar area needs to be better not on a small table.

Enjoyable stay.

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

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.

Had a fantastic time from check in till leaving. Pool was great for a daily swim. Lovely breakfast and had a great evening meal too. Staff were so friendly and very attentive. Parking no problem. Can’t wait to come back - very reasonably priced too.

Good size room with amazing views. Staff were excellent everyone very friendly and helpful. Hotel cleanliness excellent. Swimming pool could be warmer and windows in our bathroom don't open but apart from that, excellent stay.

Poor, very poor

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.

The hotel was very nice, nice modern room which seemed to have been fairly recently refurbished. The outside of the building could do with repainting however it is such a big place i suspect its an ongoing thing. We had dinner and breakfast both of which were very good There ate a good range of activities on offer although we didnt get time to.use any of them. Peebles is also a nice town for a wander around.

All round great place to stay

Excellent hotel and in a great location. It's a little dated but it is an old hotel.
