3.9 / 5 3.9 / 5 Pamela [Beccles, GB] on 02/11/2009 (Mature couple)

Good position, close to City Centre and yet far enough from busy traffic

We were a bit disappointed with the TV channels, it would have been nice to be able to see some free view channels as well as the 5 main channels.

Overall: We were fairly happy with the service  (108411089)

Pretty location, with nice outside facilities

The food was quite poor, although the staff tried their hardest to make things as pleasant as possible

Very good service at Breakfast and pleasant efficient waiting staff. Staff were helpful whilst we were changing rooms. Room and hotel in general were clean.

Owing to my wife's disability could not use the first two rooms offered. The view to the rear of the Hotel was only slightly better than a viewing day at an Abattoir. Phoned prior to visit to book a meal and told no need. With a disabled wife and having not eaten could not get a meal the night we stayed as it was fully booked. Staff really don't understand what a nuisance bad advice causes. Room was very cramped compared to Abode room costing not much more money. Rather a lot of noise and smell from the kitchen ventilation system if you opened the window to avoid having aircon on continuosly.

Overall: A lot of travelling but not a very relaxing end to the day.  (107780034)

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.
