We got a taxi from the train station to the hotel and were informed that the hotel was famous for being in a scene from Coronation Street way back! (Those of you who are as old as us might remember Alan Bradley being killed by a tram outside The Strand). There's a very small reception area and the staff member... More

I stayed for 2 nights for a stag weekend and wanted to stay in a better hotel than the usual B&B. It was nicer but still has the B&B feel to it, rather than a hotel. There is a small bar and restaurant. Rooms were fine but nothing special. It is on the north part of the town but not... More

I stayed for 2 nights whilst down on business. My husband has stayed in the past whilst on a lad's weekend and thought it was great. Unfortunately, he must have had his blinkers on, the room left a lot to be desired. The bed was clean, but the rest of the room was dirty and badly needed decorated. The carpet... More

I totally agree with you all rooms should be clean for all guests at all times. Our rooms are clean and I have personally checked the room you stayed in this weekend I admit the carpet is lightly stained in places (being a family room this tends to get stained more often) but the room is spotlessly clean. We are... More

I am sorry to hear that you found your stay with us unsatisfactory. Our staff are usually praised for their efficiency and friendliness and it is unusual for them not to smile. I have had a word with the team working on Sunday morning regarding your complaint to bring this to their attention. One member of staff is upset by... More

An excellent hotel, the staff were brilliant in helping to organise a very special surprise birthday party. They were happy to help me decorate and blow up balloons. The food that was served was brilliant, there was certainly plenty of it. All the staff were very courteous towards the guests and always willing to help wherever possible. The owner of... More

Stayed at the strand on grand national day. From the moment we arrived we had a good feeling about the hotel. All the staff were brilliant and more than happy to help. Amazing seafront location especially when we were sat on the front in the glorious sunshine. Entertainment on a night time was funny and had a great atmosphere. Breakfast... More
