Clean, organised. Good facilities. Large room, fairly quiet.

Hotel needs a bit of decorating, looking worn in places. Extractor fan not working in bathroom, consequently mold was building up on walls. Wardrobe door had come off its runner.

Overall: Good.  (108940785)

Location. Car park. Low weekend price.

No lift. Needed updating. Staff lacklustre.

When I informed reception that I was unable to get a Wi-Fi connection from my room, I was immediately upgraded to a splendid double room in the main building -- where the Wi-Fi worked perfectly! Th room service meals were very good. The hotel is extremely convenient for the University and the town centre.

The Wi-Fi connection in the annexe seems to be unreliable, and was not working when I tried to use it from my original room.

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.
