Didn't stay but always hear that side of the Hotel is second to none. Went in for a meal with family and was superb as usual. The young staff are incredibly attentive and professional for their age - Ben is great on the bar and Pete is always a checking in on you and making the experience 10/10. Food is always fantastic and great value for money. Also great food choices for coeliacs, veggies and vegans alike. Highly recommend.

Our room unfortunately, whilst absolutely spotless, was a bit tired looking,… furniture & woodwork noticeably chipped. However staff & kitchen facilities were excellent and we had a lovely overnight stay. The staff were all young but they could not have been anymore polite or accommodating. Have already recommended to our friends and family.

Great hotel for a short break in the heart of Peebles. Easy access to all the surrounding amenities without the need of a car. Hotel has car parking. Rooms are to a good standard. Restaurant food is good too. Would visit again.

Room was dated, cracks on walls, marks on wallpaper, stains on carpet, bathroom clean, bed clean and comfortable, felt £137 for 1 night for what we got was quite expensive.

Can't recommend this lovely hotel highly enough. Great location, well decorated, really cosy atmosphere and a fantastic breakfast. It's the staff that really make it a 5 star stay. Everyone we met was so kind and accommodating, even though the hotel was full. Huge thanks to all, and we'll be back!

It was for a branch not for a staying! Amazing historical hotel in the center of the town. We ended up there for brunch, but we were the only ones having brunch. In fact, the branch was not up to our expectations. It was not costly, and in general ok, but nothing that will make me go back. Service was not particularly good either ...

Since Mrs Shirley Wagner Fx started handling my trade, it has been smooth and no complain. But I still see people complaining of losing in one way or the other. I wonder why Investing in forex / Bitcoin trading has been so positively profitable for me. So I think I should introduce my broker Mrs. Shirley Wagner Fx to you if you're interested. She has being a honest manager all through. I invest $1000 she made me a profit of $9,400 within 2 weeks of trading with her, Investing with Mrs Shirley Wagner is profit guarantee, i promise you that.

We attended a wedding at Neidpith Castle and we chose The Tontine based on the close proximity to the venue.Well, what a fantastic decision that was. When we arrived after a 5 hour drive, the receptionist who checked us was superb. She noticed my mobility issues and immediately changed our room for one with suitable access.Our room was fantastic. Clean, well appointed, the bathroom was spotless, well equipped and spacious. We had drinks in the bar on the 1st night. The barman was superb with thr bar being well stocked.Breakfast is a storey all.og it's own. Superb is not even good enough. Everything on my plate was locally produced and superbly presented. Unlimited outs of tea/ Coffee and toast. A range of juices, fresh fruit salad, yogurts and cereals where also available.Would I stay here again?? You bet your bottom dollar I would.....and so should you!!!Also; Peebles is a beautiful town. The people were all so helpful and pleasant with a plentiful array of bars, eateries and independent traders.

Lovely location near Neidpath castle where we were going to for a wedding. Very comfortable room and facilities- breakfast and the bar have very nice decor and the food and drinks were excellent.Also a shoutout to the staff who were incredibly kind, understanding and helpful when they heard of our nightmare journey filled with train cancellations and stress.Parking is also very useful!Would absolutely love to go back and would highly recommend anyone to stays

Five stars. The Tontine Hotel and the town of Peebles together are WONDERFUL ❤. 5 stars for the Hotel. Peebles and the Tontine Hotel are an outstanding example of Scottish life and early architecture where things were made of stone and wood. The Tontine Hotel is the quintessential experience of Scots hospitality and the quaint colorful village is just a short drive from Edinburgh.
The Tontine Hotel is warm and cozy. The food is fabulouuus! my room had not only a towel warmer in the bath but also a trouser press in the corner of the room. Premium bath amenities. very thoughtful.
My room number was number 1 not 101. It's the real deal ...with history and soul you can feel when you walk in.. Vintage and Aged i wish I could retire there.

We only visited for a drink, so the rating only applies to the bar.The choice of beers was reasonable and there was comfortable seating. Service was a bit patchy, though to be fair it was mid-afternoon when we visited.

Great friendly staff, excellent food and nice comfortable rooms in a beautiful historic building with the high street out front, and the river at the back, what more could you want?!

A little disappointed with the service. Very long wait before we got our meal & coffee at the end. The food was good but not outstanding. However I'm sure it's a lovely place to actually stay. Beautiful inside the hotel which must date back to either late 18th century or early 19th.

All of the hotel staff that we met were very friendly and efficient - a real credit to the hotel. The meal that we had in the Bistro was excellent and breakfast was good too. Our group had 2 rooms. One had been refurbished with a very nice new bathroom. The other room had not yet been refurbished and was a bit jaded.

A very short break to recharge from a period of providing care for elderly parents. I have often stayed at the Tontine therefore it was my first choice to return there. I found the price rather expensive - I do understand the post pandemic challenges however as a regular visitor there were no offers or enticements for me to stay loyal to the hotel.

This hotel is great. Food is good cleanliness is exceptional staff are very helpful and polite. I would have given it 5 stars if accessibility to the rooms was easier, saw too many older guests struggling with cases etc trying to either climb stairs or brave the hill adjacent to hotel. But would go back.

We didn't stay, just had a meal in the restaurant. As others have said, the place needs upgrading - it was like going back in time, both in terms of decor and menu. We both had the beef roast, which was uninspiring and parts of the meat needed a steak knife; inedible. The staff however were cheerful and helpful.

The Tontine Hotel is one of the loveliest accommodations we have stayed at. We have had the privilege to stay here twice with the Tontine team and would do so again and again when visiting Peebles. We booked rooms for roughly 10 other people for a wedding anniversary party on our second visit. The impeccable customer service spoiled us at the Tontine and the staff started to feel like part of the family. The breakfast, coffee and dinner were delicious and the location of the hotel right on the high street was excellent. All of our guests slept comfortably and enjoyed relaxing and dining in the hotel. The check out was seamless and the staff understood our needs sometimes before we did. The amenities were great and the shower was spacious and updated. The beds were large and clean and the sheets were of high quality. I have and will continue to recommend the Tontine to friends and family and we very much look forward to seeing Kate and the rest of the team sometime soon. Thank you again to the Tontine!

Up in Peebles to visit family and they booked us into the bistro for lunch. I can honestly say that it was a most pleasurable experience. To have a decent menu in covid times was nice. Coupled with very attentive old school waiting on service ( thanks Callum ) was brilliant. I'm working class but i get fed up with sloppy table service . All of our party had different meals and enjoyed them , and the way the dishes were presented. The ice cream I had for desert was superb,and local. Top marks for helping us to enjoy a special day. Sea bass excellent. Lovely old days feel wandering around Peebles. Plus sun . Champion !

I stayed at the Tontine recently for a wedding. I was travelling alone with my 3 year old child. The hotel could not have done more for us and to make sure we both enjoyed our stay.
From making sure I had a drink in my hand when I couldn’t get to the bar, to offering to get us food from the buffet, someone was always making sure we were considered. Their flexibility and thoughtfulness really meant a lot to me. I’d definitely stay here again.

The tontine offers you wonderful hospitality as soon as you walk through the door! You will be met with a warm welcome and a genuine smile!
Seasonal cocktails are a win and their range of wines and whisky are just fantastic! If your the nominated driver you have a good choice of non alcoholic beers and mocktials.
I’ve ate here a couple of times and the menu is fabulous, no matter what time of the day. Food is freshly prepared and produce is locally sourced. I like the slight quirkiness of the menu and you can tell the chef puts pride into how your food is presented.
The rooms are just beautiful and the Tontine is a beautiful place to stay on the heart of Peebles x

Enjoyed our first dinner out since Lockdown tonight. They were certainly conforming to current requirements with hand sanitiser, spacing tables out, customers wearing masks when moving about, staff wearing masks, regular cleaning and contact details taken.
Service and food were excellent. Certainly good value for money under the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme. Would definitely recommend.

A fabulous takeaway dinner from our much-loved Tontine tonight, greeted warmly as always even though no Beltane Saturday! I’d only just arrived to collect our food & had to go pick up my hubby who’d had a puncture at Stobo (exemplary timing as always😄) and the guys insisted on re-doing our meals when I got back. Delicious food as always, thanks all❤️🤍❤️

Fabulous hotel! I just got back from a 2 day break with my wife, daughter, our in laws and our dog. We all had a great time. Perfect location, lovely rooms, very attentive staff, excellent food and drinks. The Hotel has a real welcoming, family feel to it, while still feeling classy and upmarket. Can’t recommend it highly enough! We will definitely be back!

We spent a wonderful few days at the Tontine Hotel Peebles. Thoroughly recommend this hotel. Breakfasts & meals were excellent. Rooms were very comfortable & well equipped. Staff were very helpful & friendly. It is a pet friendly hotel too, which was great for our spaniel. Hope to return soon.

What a great place to stay right in the middle of Peebles. We had room 17, it may be a trek to get there 😁😁 but well worth it. The staff cannot do enough for you and are ALL very friendly and helpful.

While we were up in Scotland. Barbara and I stayed at the Tontine hotel in Peebles. To put it plainly the hotel was excellent. The rooms were very comfortable, with very good bathrooms and more than adequate showers. The staff virtually fell over themselves to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Very friendly and helpful to the extreme. Breakfast was included and not this coffee and dried up pastries that some places provide. Here it’s a full breakfast, sat in a dining room and, cooked to order. Located about 30 miles south from Edinburgh. It is ideally located within easy reach of the city. I would recommend the Tontine to anyone who plans a visit to Scotland.

We had a lovely lunch with you today.

our soup and sandwiches were absolutely delicious.

The girl that served us was so polite, friendly and attentive. One of the best waitresses I have ever been served by anywhere . Unfortunately I didn't get her name but I hope you pass on our thanks. (long dark hair, foreign accent. we were in at 12pm).

Stayed at the Tontine hotel last night - loved our stay - we were in room 8 - it was so cosy and beautifully decorated - the view from the window was amazing!! Had dinner in bistro where the staff were very friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend this hotel. Peebles is also a lovely place to wander round and explore ❤️🍷🥂🍸

We are so disappointed we didn’t book here , instead we booked another hotel near by which was not to our standard .
The owners daughter greeted us however here and offered a drink and was kind enough to show me about the most amazing dining room ever seen . Hands on this lass Is and the manager was amazing , again proud of an amazing product . Highly recommend. Only realised later friends of mine stayed here recently from Essex on a golf tournament. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Stayed here for our 1st anniversary and had a wonderful time. Every member of staff is helpful & friendly. We found an anniversary card on our table at dinner, and then offered a drink on the house to celebrate. I’m a vegetarian and don’t always want something fancy to eat, I asked to have the Sunday roast without the beef and stuffed mushrooms in its place. My request was met with no problem & I thoroughly enjoyed it. However then I saw the vegetarian paella which looked amazing … I’ll be having that next time!! Breakfast was lovely too. The room was clean & cozy with a gorgeous view of the river. We will definitely return to the Tontine to stay, and also pop in anytime we might be passing to enjoy the relaxing atmosphere. Thank you for your kindness Team Tontine, it was much appreciated.

Spotless, cosy room, friendly staff, excellent food, felt very at home in Tontine Hotel. Downside was the noise all night with traffic, strange noises like a generator, banging and tappings . Thought my room was haunted! It looked on to the High Street, hopefully rooms at the back would be quieter.

The staff made our 2 nights really special. They couldn’t do enough for us and our dog. We all had a lovely meal for my wife’s birthday and I don’t think we have laughed as much for ages and all the staff and other customers joined in to make it a special evening. Fantastic stay and will be back.

The food was excellent and the staff were, in the main, really polite and attentive. One waiter was brusque and mixed up an order, which seemed to be our fault. He kept telling us he couldn’t hear - it was all a bit Manuel from Fawlty Towers, without the humour though. It was all a bit It’s so disappointing when things like this happen. It was a birthday lunch for my mum and the first time we had had my dad, who isn’t well, out for a while. Shame because everything else was really good.
