Enjoyed stay. We would liked to have been in a bigger, if possible. room. We stayed for 9 days. Not enough storage. No storage in night tables and had to ask for 10 hangers. Maybe some hooks on walls.

Nice hotel and location. Room AC could be better

We've stayed at the Thistle a few times before and we like it's convenience and general comfort. Would have rated it higher but the air conditioning was not really that cool and we slept on top of our duvets.
