The Thistle is grim to look at from the outside, there is no doubt about it, but once inside the door it is a lovely hotel. Nice recption, helpful staff, nice rooms with large beds. Not sure about the 'energy efficient' LED lights in the rooms, especially the bathroom, makes it very difficult to get a true picture of your...

We stayed at this hotel one night on our tour of Scotland. The room was very comfortable, the service was excellent, and the hotel facilities were well-maintained and tidy.
At the Thistle Hotel Altens last weekend and had a very enjoyable break ,made especially enjoyable due to friendly and helpful staff . FAB breakfasts .Go and enjoy.
This hotel looks like a prison and is about as comfortable. the rooms are clean and the staff are friendly and obliging but that is where it ends. the double bed was the smallest size you can still call a double, the pillows are apparently filled with stones and we all (there were three of us attending a conference) woke...

The hotel has a big parking, that is good! The reception was friendly and efficient. We needed to to place a call to the Isle of Skye and the lady at the reception kindly called for us and made sure we had the proper information, that was very nice of her.
The hotel is sadly quite far from the city...

I stay in this hotel regularly with work and at one point for a month excluding weekends.
The ground floor rooms have been completely refurbished to an excellent standard, they are a mixture of doubles and double, doubles with robes, slippers and reclining chairs.I think they are sold as deluxe and are more expensive. The upper floors are less expensive,...

Cant complain about this hotel, not bad, clean rooms and nice enough, only gripe is the racket from the road nearby, not sure why people on Motorbikes need to try and set a new land speed record at 5am but they do !
Dear J4acko,
Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us, I was pleased to read it was nice enough!
We have a range of internal facing rooms away from the road, should you choose to stay with us again just request this at the time of booking and we can allocate you a room accordingly....

We booked a family room in this hotel - room 192. The interior of the hotel was spotless as was the pool. At £75 for the night bed and breakfast it was excellent value for money. Only negative was no milk jug with the tea/coffee served with breakfast but that's just nit picking on my part! We'll definitely be back!
Dear JaneyP22,

Rooms are large and clean, although menu never changes the resulting food does. Chunky chips are not always chunky, but more time than not over cooked. Pizza's change from being cooked well to sitting in a plate of fatty oil. Lucky thought, there is a BugerKing about 100m from the hotel. As I said, Ya gets what ya pays for!
