Amazing Stay

The hotel is undergoing building work, but that didn't effect our stay. We were checked in to a room near reception, which was lovely - well decorated, cosy and spacious. They used all the space wisely to design the room and give a decent size ensuite bathroom with a huge walk in shower. Was really impressed. It was a home from home for the weekend while we worked in the area. It wasn't as noisy as we expected outside overnight, despite being near a bar, so was pleasantly surprised. We did have inconsiderate guests making noise after 10pm on the final night, chatting loudly and letting their dogs bark, but that's not the fault of the hotel. If you are staying on the ground floor, you probably will hear people chatting from 8am onwards with people checking out or going to breakfast. It was a minimal inconvenience really. The area around the hotel is great and it's not too far a walk to the seafront, so is a great alternative to super expensive alternatives down near the beach. Staff here were friendly and accommodating during our stay, plus, the breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice. Some minor niggles: the WiFi dropped in and out constantly and needs fixing. And on the morning of check out, the cleaner didn't knock and just unlocked our door to come in without checking we'd left - they did apologise, though would definitely recommend a quick knock to avoid that happening. Even so, we really liked the hotel and think once the building work is done, it will be a gem.

As expected

Stayed for the purpose of a motor scooter rally. Food was good and staff were friendly. Some improvements were being carried out but we remained unaffected. Room was more than adequate for it's purpose. Not a particularly expensive stay and you get what you pay for.

The shower door track had a filthy corner on the bottom track which can only be seen from inside the shower. Also the light did not work and no extractor operation was evident.

Don't pass this by

Typical seaside old style hotel, don't let first impressions put you off. Really nice and friendly receptionist, hotel bar/restaurant areat and a quiet room absolutely lovely. The rooms are cosy, if you are looking for big rooms, look somewhere else. Bed was comfortable, room was clean and tidy.

Enjoyed our stay, pet friendly in most rooms which was a bonus for us because our dog travelled with us. Staff pleasant and friendly. Unsure about the food because didnt eat at the hotel, had a drink in the bar which was pleasant. They are doing work to the hotel so scaffolding to front of building. Net curtains required to the windows at front because no privacy due to the flats across the road and can see into your room. Fish and chips from the life boat fish shop was amazing. We managed to park outside front of hotel and bought a permit for£2.50 from hotel which was good value and lasted 2 days. A little noise from pub across road on the saturday night but didnt put us off. We will visit the hotel again and was a reasonable price.

Ideal location for spa and friendly staff

The hotel was going through some restoration… the reception did apoloyfod the scaffolding all the way around as it was part requirement to have new windows…. it didn’t really bother us…. it was good that they had just done all the painting in the rooms many other visitors said they were glad to see it but they had left a lot of the old fixtures & fittings the shower curtain & bathroom flooring was very stained if you renovate you should follow it through with new accessories??
