I stayed one night. My room was awful.the carpet was completely worn, walls were stained and the wallpaper was falling off. The shower head in my shower fell off mid shower. The room was roasting as the heating wouldn't turn down and the window barely opened. Breakfast was a joke. No fruit at all!!! I don't eat cooked breakfast and... More

Got my room through Expedia for a song, which compensated for most of its shortcomings. While my single room was very comfortable (with huge double bed, TV, heating, tea supplies and kettle, and an opulent bathroom with tub), the hotel itself is rather dreary and charmless. Location is hardly worth a taxi from the station, but just a wee bit... More

We booked a double room for our overnight stay as part of our 2 day highland tour. The room was small and we couldn't find proper space to put our luggage and open it. We felt the bathroom did not have proper exhaust or ventilation. The room was very clean and the bed was comfy. But nothing great to say... More

Didn't stay but 5 of us had lunch. Two had toasted sandwiches made from very old/stale toast perhaps left from breakfast. The contents were not wholly as described either. Other dishes mor edible but all grissly overpriced. Won't be back.

I visited the hotel during a time I was taking part in a charity event called maggies monster - although I encourted difficulties with the hotel receptionist who was rather rude to my sibling on trying to check in. His attitude was appalling and haven't experienced anything of the type in any other hotel I have visited - as far... More

This hotel could seriously do with a revamp. The place is really starting to show its age. I agree with the negative comments on this particular hotel but its not a common theme to all thistle hotels I've stayed in. My stay was to say the least terrible. I've stayed here twice in recent years and at one point 10... More

I stayed here for two nights. The hotel is a little out of town but still within easy walking distance of the shopping area. There was ample parking. I was given a small room overlooking the railway line (I didn't hear any trains at night). The room had a comfortable double bed, dresser, TV, telephone, cupboard, safe, small ironing station...

We recently made the very wise decision to sign up for membership at the Thistle (Otium), having become very unhappy with a similar arrangement at the Kingsmills Hotel. The changing rooms here are spotless, with adequate space and lockers (padlocks needed or can be hired),bags provided for wet swimwear etc. The only drawback as far as I am concerned is... More

Stayed at the Thistle hotel last week for 2nights along with 3 other couples..Rooms clean and staff friendly.Breakfasts excellent,very fresh and well cooked.Hotel situated approx 1 mile from city centre ,we often walked there and back although taxis plentiful and reasonable.Would definately stay here again.Lovely pool area and spotless too.
