“Beautiful Hotel, Amazing Service”
We recently stayed at this lovely hotel and honestly had such a great experience from start to finish. The building itself is stunning, full of character and history. What stood out most though was the staff. Everyone we encountered was welcoming, friendly and helpful, especially Patrick on recept… more

“Stunning historic hotel”
It was our first experience of staying at The Kimpton and it didn't disappoint. The historic Refuge assurance building has been sympathetically converted into a luxury hotel. It has retained its original architectural features but has all the contemporary facilities you would expect from a high end… more

“A Good Experience is Guaranteed Here.”
A very smart hotel in the centre of the city. Ideal if you are on a sightseeing vacation. A beautiful atrium welcomes you, with helpful and professional staff on reception. Our room was very clean and nicely decorated, and an en suite with a shower that actually works properly.(always a good point)… more

“Nice building, quite average in other ways.”
The location was ideal for our stay in the city. Cannot fault the quality of service and the building itself is a stunning piece of 18th/19th century architecture, albeit covered in scaffolding when we went. Certainly an experience with a certain atmosphere. Our room was typical of an older hotel … more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
