4.0 / 5 4.0 / 5 Teresa [Chichester, GB] on 18/09/2009 (Group of adult friends)

Speed with which staff sorted the power problem

Power had blown so returned late at night unable to see

Overall: Good  (108895252)

4.6 / 5 4.6 / 5 Dominique [Milford, US] on 09/09/2009 (Same sex couple)

Very nice hotel, quiet, great location, big bathroom, comfortable beds, clean.

two out of three staff members we spoke to were constantly on the phone talking to friends and not always willing to help.

Overall: In general, very nice hotel, totally acceptable: clean, comfortable.  (107988098)

4.9 / 5 4.9 / 5 Helen [Kendal, GB] on 31/08/2009 (Mature couple)

Fabulous location, great spot for the Royal Albert Hall and Kensington Gardens. Well mannered and helpful staff. Room clean, comfortable and pleasant.

Probably due for a refit, but everything in order and very clean nevertheless.

Overall: Exceeded my expectations. London is not cheap, this was good value.  (107571759)

4.0 / 5 4.0 / 5 Anonymous on 01/06/2009 (Mature couple)

Excellent location very spacious rooms

As with a lot of Hotels the shower could be better, we went to the Albert Hall for a concert and on our return, 10:40, the bar was closed somebody served us a drink after going to reception but it was all veru unwelcoming.

Overall: good value for money.  (107395404)

4.6 / 5 4.6 / 5 Anonymous on 30/05/2009 (Young couple)

excellent room facilities (upgraded to 1 bedroom suite), spacious, clean, very comfortable bed

room was too warm, even with a window open. Radiator was set to high, despite temps outside of 23 degrees C.

Overall: great!  (107312507)

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.
