Staff tried to help their level best with in their constraints to acccomodate. Excellent breakfast and very hospitable people servers.

Rooms come with no telephone and no air conditioning. Need to be careful about what you pay for. Room rents starts at 25, while I ended up paying three times more than that.

Overall: Good hotel for a very budget oriented stay if you are able to get all your dots in order  (108535911)

3.4 / 5 3.4 / 5 Anonymous on 30/07/2009 (Solo business traveller)

Friendly, convenient, acceptably clean

Broken shower, breakfast not really up to standard, seating accommodation squashed & uncomfortable, poor understanding of the meaning of 'full English'.

Overall: For the money, adequate but not as good as it might have been given a bit more thought & maintenance.  (107946606)

2.7 / 5 2.7 / 5 Tony [Skipton, GB] on 21/05/2009 (Mature couple)

Value for money. Interesting Breakfast. Quickly upgraded to a better room.

First room was very poor.

Overall: You get what you pay for.  (107388744)

4.4 / 5 4.4 / 5 David [Swindon, GB] on 07/05/2009 (Mature couple)

Very friendly staff, nothing to much trouble, more than adequate breakfast although a bit confusing.

Breakfast advertised as "Full English" although was a mix of English and Continental, but more than enough for most people to eat. More choice of rooms if you ring for info instead of WEB. We stayed in a twin room although there were double rooms available, although not on WEB.

Overall: Pleasantly surprised at Value for money in such a location. You get what you pay for and in this instance was very good.  (107554113)

The staff was extremely nice and helpfull. everything nice and clean. excelent choice of breakfast (quality and diversity)

Overall: everything went fine. I recommend this hotel to those who wish a few nights in London for a fair price (in spite of the small room - but who goes to London to stay in a room?)  (107654302)

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
