"Overall a great stay but evening meal menus were misleading, as set menu was not as priced..."

"Parking was free and very accessible for the hotel reception. We arrived a little early and decided to have a light lunch in the bar where we Adam the bar manager who was most welcoming and we enjoyed a local brew over lunch. Our room was very comfortable with lovely views over the river. We dined at the hotel and received excellent service from Eilidh and her team. The fish and shellfish on the menu was beautifully prepared and presented by the chef although the supporting wine list was somewhat limited and unspectacular Breakfast service was adequate with a rather plain buffet choice, but the cooked breakfast was again well cooked and presented, a credit to the chef. The hotel is set in a world heritage site and run by a charitable trust, so we were pleased to support a local business which clearly employs a cheerful and well trained staff."

"Great hotel. Very popular with families. Bed was comfortable enough. House keeping of room was thorough. Breakfast was well run. Easy stroll into the heart of Peebles town. Amazing views across the hills. Very kind staff."

"Great location with plenty of free parking. The room was quite small but we were only there for one night and had very little luggage. Good restaurant. Service was excellent. Staff were particularly friendly and helpful."

"Lovely hotel. Beautiful dining room. Plenty parking. Staff very helpful."

"From the minute we arrived the staff were so welcoming and helpful. Our room was comfortable and on the ground floor which we had requested . It was very quiet and peaceful. We booked for three nights and had dinner on the first and third night. The meals were excellent and a good choice of menu."

"The Staff is very helpful. The food is awesome, great breakfast and dinner menu. Will be back to stay when I'm in Scotland. My first time to Scotland but not my last. Thanks to all the Staff at the Old School Hotel. Kastro"

"Stayed at this hotel about six times before - first time I have been charged for the car park."

"The bathrooms are extremely grubby, shower cubicles filled with grime, we were booked in for 4 nights, the 1st night we didn't pay much attention to the place (we were knackered), the next morning we couldn't believe just how filthy the place was ! Spoke to management about getting a refund on the 1st night and we'd consider moving rooms, upon looking at other rooms they weren't much better. The management weren't able to make any decisions so had to call the owner (Carlton i believe he was called), who refused any offer we came up with. From chatting to staff they've spoken about the rooms needing refurbished but the owner has always refused. In summary...great staff,absolutely stinking rooms."
