Wonderful two-night stay

Two-night stay in April, Peebles is a small town and the Tontine is centrally located with ~10 parking spaces behind it. The staff was very friendly and helpful with restaurant recommendations and assistance with have some laundry done overnight. The included breakfast was excellent and filling. Would stay there again.

Disliked: Amenities
My husband requested an accessible room due to having COPD. The room allocated was the ONLY room used for dogs, although the hotel was practically empty. Result my husband couldn’t sleep and was up both nights with palpitations and severe breathing problems. It was only on leaving I asked if this was a room used for pets and was shocked by the manager’s response. Unbelievable. Spoiled our holiday and won’t be back. Poor management.

The one word for this hotel is “impeccable “. The facilities are great and the food is excellent. None of the usual tepid buffet here! Everything is freshly cooked. Ten out of ten for everything. This is the first time I have ever given such a good review, and they deserve it.
