Well it was a night; it was supposed to be two!
I didn't have high expectations from a Thistle but I happen to know that the restaurant at this hotel is very good so I had some hope that the rooms might equal this.
Sadly it wasn't the case.
The first room we went into was by the front door, ok I know someone needs to be there, and I was ok with this if that was all that was wrong. The hot water pipes that ran along one wall made the room so hot that it was impossible to sleep in - almost impossible to breathe in to be honest! This alongside the fact that the bed felt about as comfortable as an ironing board meant that I bit the bullet and asked to be moved - not something I would normally do but needs must.
The second room we were given was supposed to be a superior room - I think this meant we had a table and chairs as well as a desk. As much as this room was a decent temperature and the bed was a little better the room had a smell of rotton fish that made it impossible to stay in.
Thanks to a desperate need to sleep by this point we roughed it and vowed never to return again.
Perhaps I was just unlucky and I hope this is the case and to give the staff the due the deserve they were wonderfully helpful and apologetic and as I said I know that the restaurant is a great place for dinner.
If you're just looking for somewhere to stop off on a long journey you cant do much better than a hotel that sits at the conference of the M1 and the M25 but that's all it really is - a motorway hotel so don't have too high hopes!!

Sorry for the low rating, but I think that your Review needs a lot more information and detail to justify a higher rating. Hotel reviews need lots of detail on everything from the price to customer service, to the restaurant, to other facilities. You might find it helpful if you read and rate some other peoples’ reviews (especially those that have been rated VH or E). It might give you an idea of the sort of things you need to include. If I can be of any help or if you decide to amend your review feel free to put a note in my gb, I’ll be happy to re-read and re-rate. Rich
