Ermmmm...

There were no staff during check-in hours and I had to wait for a while until someone showed up. The door of the room was easily jammed. I was once stuck in the bathroom and had to ask my friend to push the door from the other side to rescue me. The sink was clogged too.

It is an old hotel currently under refurbishment. Friendly staff are doing what they can to be helpful in a run down hotel. I would only revisit when it has been fully refurbished, which will take a while. The new owner was welcoming and enthusiastic about the job ahead of him. Very run down but beds clean and tea in the room. You get what you pay for, and it was very cheap. I wouldn't recommend the hotel unless you are watching your pennies. Good luck to the refurbishment.

Worst hotel ever

This is the worst place I’ve ever stayed in! The pictures on the website are nothing like what we experienced. It did not even feel safe to leave our belongings in the room when we went out or overnight. Please do not advertise this hotel on hotel.com it’s horrendous

The staff is good. But the room faced the rubbish and dirty roofs (not at all like pictures) smoked under the windows, which is not at all acceptable to stay there with the children

We were told on arrival there were problems with our room but the hotel was full. No hot water. Room very hot with radiator on? Window would not open so no ventilation. There was a fan but it just circulated the hot air. No plugs in sink or bath. No TV been removed. Asked for glasses which staff got for us. Asked for an extra pillow twice never arrived. The receptionist offered to move us on our second day but we decided not to move. Great location but tired and dated. Staff pleasant and tried to help.

This hotel is in an excellent location, 4-5 minutes from the beach and was the best priced hotel for a family on a very tight budget. The hotel has parking and there was plenty of space making arrival a stress free experience and it was even better to find out from the friendly reception staff, that if we were to pay for the parking using the code inside the hotel then the parking would be even cheaper than we thought. The hotel was definitely in need of renovation and a deep clean of the shared areas and hallways but this was made very clear in emails prior to our stay and we were happy with taking that as a small con against all the pros. Our room itself was lovely and clean and they provided everything we needed. We were delighted to see they had provided two fans for our quite hot third floor room as I've previously had an experience with a hotel very close by that was higher star and did not even provide that. There is a pool table free of charge near reception that the children enjoyed whilst waited for clouds to disappear and the staff were happy to provide as many tea, coffee and milks as we needed and we're big tea drinkers! Over all Russel Courts was a lovely hotel and for those who are on a tight budget and would love to give their children a seaside experience during the very experience school holidays, this is a great hotel. We would definitely visit again.
