High Street, Peebles town centre · Hotel

A 36-room hotel on Peebles High Street dating to 1808, with river views to the rear and a restaurant serving locally sourced Scottish menus.

About The Tontine Hotel

The Tontine has stood on Peebles High Street since 1808, its 36 ensuite rooms fitted out with Hypnos beds, flat-screen TVs and free WiFi behind a facade that still reads as a Georgian coaching inn. Rooms at the rear look out over the River Tweed, while those facing the street put guests right above the town's shops and cafes.

The hotel's restaurant, bar and bistro work with local suppliers to build seasonal Scottish menus, and the Tontine also handles weddings and events for up to 80 guests, along with a loyalty scheme offering credit against food and drink. Golf, fishing and mountain biking can all be arranged through the hotel for guests wanting to build activities into their stay.

Its High Street position makes it one of the most walkable bases in Peebles, with Edinburgh around 21 miles away for day trips, and it suits visitors who want straightforward, well-located rooms without the extras of a spa hotel.
