Pros:

I’m a business traveler. Rooms were ok for the price, we ate in the bar, rather than the restaurant. We had to order at the bar, collect drinks at the bar, the waiter service mostly hadn’t got a clue what table they were delivering too and often they were offering main courses to tables who already had main courses already being eaten?
The big issue for us, was that they put a service charge of 10% on the bill. If you have to go to the bar, to order? And they have no idea where they are taking the food to? What exactly is the service?
McDonald’s don’t have service charge? To be perfectly honest the food isn’t much better and I prefer to avoid those as well

Pros:

We used the Peebles Hydro as a base to visit the Borders area so we didn't use the Spa or Leisure facilities. The hotel is lovely and the staff helpful, friendly and efficient.

Wonderful in every way
Pros:

The Peebles Hydro Hotel was amazing and such an awesome place to stay! We spent a couple nights here to celebrate my birthday and everything was perfect! The Swimming Pool and Hot Tub were so nice and the spa area was spectacular as well!

Pros:

Was a great stay. But pool and sauna etc were really tired and not nice enough. Staff were fabulous. Breakfast was great. Grounds lovely. But a couple of things in the bathroom -chips n nicks - could have been easily sorted. Pool was a big disappointment

Excellent Break – Just a Couple of Suggestions
Pros:

We had an excellent two-day stay at Peebles Hydro. Everything from the staff to the setting was first-class, and a lovely touch from the manager to give me a birthday card and chocolates – much appreciated.

Only two small suggestions: it would be handy to have a bar on the ground floor, and as we’re getting older, a handrail in the shower would make things easier. Other than that, a wonderful visit and we’ll happily return.
