3.7 / 5 3.7 / 5 Anonymous on 20/09/2009 (Mature couple)

The owners were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellant.The beds were very comfortable.the shower was fabulous The hotel has recently been redecorated and was very pleasant

on top floor, I had booked an executive double and got a double bed where there was no room to get in and out of bed on either side, it also had a single bed in the room. This did not match my expectation of an executive room

Overall: ok. The weather was very good and the hotel is a short walk from the town and harbour. Plenty of eating places and easy access to other resorts.My partner was ill during the stay and the owners couldnt have been more helpful and caring  (108956677)

The four poster bed and the interior design. the staff were also very friendly.

the bathroom door didnt close properly.

Overall: Our stay at the palms hotle was lovely- the staff were friendly and helpful- they even parked my car for me as i was having trouble parking. that is the only thing i would like to have known before booking the hotel- that the parking was a bit difficult. the room was clean and tidy, there were tea and coffee making facilities. the hotel was really close to the town centre which was helpful and we had a key to the hotel door so we could come and go as we pleased. our overall stay was lovely and i would definatly recommend this hotel to other people and recommend this website aswell.  (3304588279)

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.
