what needs improvement
well i got moved around my room to a smaller bed then the previously 1, and there was this 1 staff member that always attented me even tho i wanted someone else, and always gave me a hard time but every other staff were polite
what needs improvement
The hotel is old and far from the city centre, the staff is courteous but inefficient. We left our valuables in the hotel safe because the room safe was broken. When we had to collect them, they gave us another person's valuables !!We never had enough towels for both of us. The TV did not work well. The room was tiny as well as the bathroom.
small and loud
Terrible food rooms and not worth the price a youth hostel will be better
Stay here only if you need a short stay (1 day) to wait for your next flight. Otherwise the hotel looks old and tired. Rooms are small. There are very long corridors to get to your room. No elevators but they can help with baggage. Hotel Hoppa Bus costs only 4 Pounds(one way) to get to/from airport. But be aware that you may wait the bus H4 more then 30 minutes (instead of advertised 12-15 minutes). If you are party of 2 or more people - take a taxi (8-10 pounds).
The hotel no longers offers free shuttle service to/from the airport (which seems true of all airport hotels). Instead, you must either take a taxi (app. 30) or the Hotel Hoppa bus (8 each way). The bus does not go to Terminal 4 (British Airways). Total travel time from Thistle to Terminal 4: 1 hour. This pretty much eliminates the value of paying a premium price for proximity to the airport.
the halls and rooms are small and halls are winding. The room was difficult to find -- very loud in halls and airport traffic
