Rosemary Group of friends alnwick, United Kingdom August 15, 2012	Helpful and welcoming front desk staff, clean room with pleasant view, attractive conservatory dining-room The chef the night we had dinner. The very small lamb shank was served with a great globule of stringy fat (about half the size of the meat), and an extra decorative piece of just pure bone. The sea bass was smothered with a bland and apparently unseasoned sauce. As for the sauce served with the ice cream, this appeared to be nothing more than a spoonful of instant coffee dissolved in hot water. The vegetables tasted as if they had sat in warm water for some considerable time. A pleasant hotel badly let down by a chef apparently totally uninterested in food. Two lights in room ceiling were not working. The tap was hard to turn off. Did you find this review helpful?	7.5
David Mature couple Irvine, United Kingdom July 25, 2012	Friendly staff, dated decor, not really value for money Did you find this review helpful?	6.3
Sonia Mature couple goring on thames, United Kingdom July 11, 2012	its location to the wedding venue up the road. Bed was good No TV (Andy Murray was playing so didnt see start!) as remote missing - no offer to replace.. also the whole place is in dire need of a re-fit, bathroom old and tired with moldy grout (no excuse for this) carpets in main building old and the front and facade of building is awful.

Elsie Mature couple ALBANY, Australia July 9, 2012	Had to run gauntlet of the cigarette smoking at hotel entrance -certainly not a great advert for guests staying. Also a wedding being held meant that guests staying overnight were tramping corridors until 4.30am plus a dog barked periodically. Wouldn't recommend hotel until these problems were dealt with.

John Mature couple Hamilton, United Kingdom June 19, 2012	Very friendly and efficient staff. Very well maintained and very clean. Also very comfortable. Excellent food. Not cheap, but is value for money. Would definitely stay at the hotel again. The location, the decor and the all round atmosphere. Did you find this review helpful?	9.2

Graham Mature couple Edinburgh, United Kingdom May 22, 2012	I have stayed at the Tinto several times - love the location and friendliness of staff. Such a relaxing hotel.Receptionist and girls waitressing in morning were really good. This stay there were a couple of times I couldnt find a member of staff to order afternoon coffees or evening meal. Shower in bathroom could do to be upgraded. Did you find this review helpful?	7.5
Marielle Solo traveler Elst, Netherlands May 27, 2012	Ontzettend vriendelijk en gastvrije ontvangst. Redelijk ruime kamer en schoon. Goede bedden voor de prijs-kwaliteit verhouding. De badkamers zijn gedateerd qua stijl, maar ook qua gebruikscomfort. Met geen mogelijkheid was de douche op een acceptabele temperatuur te krijgen met het handmatig afstellen van de warme en koude kraan. Ofwel te heet om onder te kunnen staan, of echt te koud. Een extreme wisseldouche dus, maar je zou dus in bad kunnen gaan... 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?	6.7
Anonymous Solo traveler United Kingdom April 20, 2012	Excellent service, friendly staff, clean - no hassel / stress free stay Did you find this review helpful?	7.5
Anonymous Young couple United Kingdom September 18, 2012	Beautiful location, close to where we were visiting friends. The hotel room was clean but very old fashioned. As we had an early departure before breakfast was served in the dining room, we asked for continental breakfast. The staff said this was not a problem and were happy to oblige. ONly problem... they forgot to do it. We had to go to reception to chase it and ended up being late leaving for the airport. They did apologise but still disappointing. Did you find this review helpful?	5.8
Anonymous Solo traveler United Kingdom September 24, 2012	Close proximity to friend. The price £89 for a single person, in a dated room from the land that time forgot! Faded, jaded kick back from the 70s. £1.45 for a small bottle of water too, adding insult to injury. Use as last resort. Did you find this review helpful?	4.2
Anonymous Young couple United Kingdom September 3, 2012	Nice rural location, only 5mins from Biggar. Good breakfast, very attentive and friendly staff. Slightly outdated bathroom decor / facilities, compared with say a travelodge or similar. Mould on tiled wall next to shower! Did you find this review helpful?	7.5
