We stayed at this hotel for one night booked the day before, £59 with Breakfast, and thought it was excellent value. Yes the hotel does look dated, I don't think the bedrooms have changed since I stayed there 20 years ago, but the price reflects this. The bar area has been modernised and is comfortable. We used the snooker room,... More

I have stayed at the Wessex several times dating back to 1983 when my parents brought me here on holiday.

However, the hotel is immaculate. Room was very big and had everything we needed and the breakfast had everything you could want. We... More

we stayed at this hotel for a company Christmas party. the room was a little tired but plenty of space which would have ben good for a longer stay.
