Booked when the room was heavily discounted which made staying here very attractive. Location very near Terminal 5. Perfect for our early morning flight the next day. Try NOT TAKE a taxi from the airport to the hotel which cost £20 for the 10 min journey. Take the Airport Shuttle (£4.50) or you could work if you dare. Be aware that the airport shuttle bus driver may not carry change! Room was fine, on the ground floor but it's only a 2 level hotel.

easy, fast, efficient carpets stale, internal sound insulation poor (noisy corridors) which is a considerable shortcoming for a hotel that operates 24/7

Its convenience, cleanliness and comfort. I will complain here ... why make it so easy to affirm and more difficult to register complaints. My daughter actually stayed at the hotel and though she double checked the night before, being told that the restaurant would be open for breakfast until the advertized time, she came down for breakfast to be told it was too late ... and after much insistence that either she be given the pre-paid breakfast (c£15) or be refunded, a tired, cold and inferior tray was produced. She will certainly avoid Thistle unless absolutely essential. And of course, this colours my response.

The location is very close to T5. Staff is really friendly. Check took me just 3-4 min. The rooms are old, but clean. I will give 3 not more than 3.5 star When I was booking, it saying 4 star. I dont think so. I will stay here again only if It will be not more than 50 pounds per room

Very close to Heathrow airport. The bar staff argued (shouting at each other) for the duration of our time in the bar. The Stella from the tap was flat but they didn't care when we pointed it out to them.

I booked this hotel so that I could leave my car at the hotel while I went abroad. Very close to heathrow, had shuttle buses to the terminals. Easy to find off the m25 The room service fee was far too high at £5 and the fish and chips were overpriced at £15 although they were fresh and well cooked. There was no information in the room as to what food was available in the restaurants with any menus except the room service one. Only one of the reception staff was English - the other staff were not native English speakers and were not clear with their speech. Surely this should be a consideration for employment?

The staff were absolutely fantastic on arrival and on departure. Extremely helpful on reception a credit to the hotel. The extremely, extremely thin walls, you could here everything next door! It was not mentioned anywhere about the £4.50 charge for the Hopper Bus and the fact there is a free public transport bus no 423 from terminal 5.

We required an overnight stay at Heathrow to enable us to catch an early morning flight. The hotel was well situated for Terminal 5 and good value for money and suprisingly quiet as it is near an airport

I chose the Thistle because it offered a competitive rate for a hotel close to Heathrow. The bed linens were clean and the bed was reasonably comfortable. The staff were polite and helpful. The room turned out to be a long hike from the check-in, however, and was in an older part of the hotel that badly needs refurbishing. Bedroom and bathroom were clean but looked faded and 20-years behind the times. I was surprised by the room's dated appearance because the website gives the impression that the entire hotel is modern and up-to-date. Presumably, the newer part of the hotel commands a higher price than I paid. I probably wouldn't recommend the Thistle to my friends.

Internet was not working - this was one of the reasons that I selected the hotel: close to airport for business trip following day, and intetnet connectivity for preparation. They advised that it would be working in 1 - 2 hours, but it clearly (with hindsight) was not going to be fixed that evening. They then said I could buy a voucher and try to connect, but if it didn't work the voucher was non-refundable - unacceptable

Dirty black stains on carpet. Noisy squeeky floor right outside my room that kept me awake whenever someone walked along the corridor. Hot airless room with air con that wasn't working that couldnt be fixed according to staff. And when I politely complained to the front desk on check-out about the squeeky floor in the corridor, he shrugged his shoulders and had the cheek so tell me "that was the room you booked".. I work at the airport and if I don't get a response I will be telling as many people as possible about my experience.

The convenience of being close to Heathrow Airport. Very sound proof windows - couldn't hear the aeroplanes at all even though I could see them landing from my window. Mattress very hard, pillows too spongy, heavy duvets - not comfortable at all. We requested 2 small cushions to use instead, which were kindly given for us to use instead. Had a few spiders (3 in total) crawling on the sheets, so maybe needs some fumigating. Toilets too close to wall making it very uncomfortable to sit normally - had to almost sit "side-saddle" when using loo.

It was very convenient for Heathrow. The Hoppo bus stops right outside. The room was small but clean and the staff were very helpful. Great value for money. No - if I want to be pedantic I'd say it was a long walk to my room but then I could have asked for assistance!

The location was great, easy to get on and off the m25. The cost was excellent and no hassle parking. Great view of the airport from the bar. Not an inspiring building.

My husband was to arrive on the 17 jan but did not make it due to flight problems and we were there for less than 10 hours but no one could understand and just charge us for the one day we tried to talk to the staff there but they were so rude and did not want to listen to our stroy we are very upset with the whole issue we were hoping to make another booking for 2/29/12 as we will be in transit again but we dont know how it could be worked out as we paid for the one night that we did not use the hotel room thanks Just the location because it is close to the airport
