Overal ok.

Ultra clean. Big drawback is parking and the is info on hotels.com is at best ambiguous. Minor moan is that reception staff absent on arrival for about 15 minutes.

Great location but dated

Location is great but for the price it’s quite dated. The bed was very firm which isn’t my personal preference. The rooms could do with a bit of a revamp but the bathrooms are massive. If you are booking for a wedding don’t bother as there’s no plugs near mirrors or full length mirrors to get ready with. For a hotel called the view it does live up to that if you are at the front of the hotel, side rooms did have a sea view but was mostly looking over a burnt hotel next door.

We were disturbed by other guests very early in the morning which went on for over an hour having FaceTime calls, however Ben did try and ask them to be quiete. It wasn’t the hotels fault but the walls are very thin.

Great hotel overall

Clean and well kept room - friendly and helpful staff. Good location for the beach and also for the Eurotunnel. The only downside was how hot the room was - radiator was off and we had the windows open but it was still too hot to sleep comfortably!

Superb stay

Superb hotel. Room way described as small and cosy online but was surprisingly large with king size bed with a wonderful view. Breakfast was great as well as the on site restaurant and all hotel staff. Great location near seafront but an easy walk to town and beach and train station.
