Quirky room shape
Public area (sitting room) rather unwelcoming atmosphere.
Overall: Great location. Hotel already looking a little tired and weatherbeaten (broken tiles in lift, chipped paint in rooms).While the building itself still oozes charm and atmosphere of a victorian era, the brasserie and public areas seem less than warmly welcoming. If the rest of the Publisher suites have as little hanging/ storage space as ours had, bring hand luggage only. (2968088)

The size, decor, appointments and layout of the room was better than excellent.
Few non-fee TV channels and the CD player would not play US CDs.
Overall: We were getting married in Edinburgh so there several special requests - and the staff couldn't have been more accomodating. The Brasserie restaurant staff were equally good and the food excellent. This hotel has truely world-class concierge team. (2054021)

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.
