3.1 / 5 3.1 / 5 Anonymous on 16/08/2009 (Mature couple)

Good atmosphere, large room, quiet place.

Expensive, specially since we arrived late evening and even there where empty rooms no discount was proposed.

Overall: ok  (107893677)

4.9 / 5 4.9 / 5 Pamela [Littleton, US] on 11/06/2009 (Group of adult friends)

The staff was very helpful with the city and details on how and where to go. Always very cheerful in the morning at breakfast.

Overall: We enjoyed our stay at Alexander very much and would stay there again.  (107674425)

4.0 / 5 4.0 / 5 Colin [luton, GB] on 02/06/2009 (Solo leisure traveller)

accomodating nature of staff cleanliness and order facility availability local knowledge provided by landlady

Credit card machine was tempremental. Difficult to find (advised to get directions before you leave for edinburgh.)

Overall: A very good (if lucky) find in walking distance form edinburgh's town centre. Ideal for the marathon and once found proved to be very welcome.  (107715252)

Overall: I was very disappointed at the very 'tired' & old fashioned decor. The review on the website does not reflect the reality.  (107880576)

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.
