competitive price (£65 for double room). Our Early check out request (6am) was catered for with the offer of a packed breakfast.

Bar closure at 11.00 and firm refusal to serve residents even 1 minute after this time, this is not suitable for late working business guests (we arrived at 9pm) and also unusual for a hotel. Also there was a problem with tripped electrics and we had to call the offsite duty manager 3 times before the phone was answered. We ended up locating the fuse box and resetting it ourselves in the meantime.

Overall: Main road location is a little noisy for the rooms on that side of the hotel - but thats not the hotels fault.  (108376129)

Lovely setting, staff were nice and the public parts of the hotel were clean and cosy.

our room (number 8)was vile, we had paid for a superior room but should have got a defination of superior, I do understand in olde world character hotels the rooms will be smaller etc but our room was so so dirty, the carpet was filthy with stains all over it, certain parts of the room had obviously never been cleaned as they were covered in thick greasy dust (and yucky stuff) - Also feel that a full breakfast should have included in the price as we have stayed in much cleaner, better hotels which did provide this.

Overall: The Unicorn was a good base to discover the surrounding villages, but we were really disappointed with our room.  (108327211)

Wonderful location for visiting the Cotswolds. The hotel was quiet and we had 2 nights of uninterrupted sleep. Free parking.

Nice old building, well maintained, good facilities.

Hot water tank not big enough!

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.
