4.4 / 5 4.4 / 5 Anonymous on 03/11/2009 (Mature couple)

Although we were booked into the Gainsborough, they said this was full and so they transferred us to their sister hotel opposite called the Gallery which we found out to be better.

The only point was that we had a separate air conditioining unit in the room which was really too large for the room and it was right next to the bed by the window. A smaller unit would be more suitable for that room.

Overall: The hotels are centrally situated for Royal Albert Hall, museums, restaurants and shops etc.  (108981414)

Quiet location. Small personal hotel.

Bedroom was classed as "deluxe" twin. Can't see how a room could be more basic! Very small - only room for one bedside cabinet. Wardrobe was a little corridor off room. Cracked window,stained wallpaper. Took 45 minutes to get 2 icecreams from room service. " Well stocked bar" highly inadequate and was often locked and bar man had to come from Galleries across road.

Overall: Good location for our stay - to visit natural history museum.Had a peaceful atmosphere but felt the price highly inflated for quality of room  (108714220)

Convenient for Royal Albert Hall and museums and for eating out.

Could do with some secondary double glazing as noisy at night with traffic and nearby nightclub.

Overall: Good and convenient for local attractions.  (107910669)

Nice location, quiet community but close access to the tube, shopping and tourist attractions. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Exellent value for the price.

Overall: Very very pleasant.  (107557952)

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.
