Old fashion hotel with modern thinking, excellent location and would recommend sea view rooms. Parking can be a problem, loading bay in front of hotel good. Very good food with excellent service. All staff extremely helpful.

“One word brilliant !”

Reviewed 9 May 2013 via mobile

To be honest myself and my partner found this hotel by accident, we came to look at the motor show across the road from the hotel, and it was a excellent find. The Saturday was a dark and dismal day raining, so everybody had the same idea to take shelter in the Lansdowne. They was very busy but still showed... More

“Old-fashioned values - and decor!”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

This is a family-owned hotel – and it shows! The atmosphere is friendly, informal – even homely. We were there for the weekend (with a group of 30) and were given one of the best (sea-facing) rooms, which are really junior suites. They have a pleasant seating area by the bay window, and all the usual 3-star features, including tea/coffee-making... More

“Miss Marple would be happy here”

Reviewed 26 April 2013

The hotel looks and feels like it stepped out of the late 1960's. Everything is a bit dated but its clean, it's not shabby at all and the staff were really friendly. I had a single room at the back and the bed was comfy and the room was fresh. All in all, good value.

I am pleased that you found the hotel to be clean and comfortable, and considered it to be good value for money. Also that our staff were friendly With regard to the décor being a little dated, we do advertise ourselves as a traditional, Victorian hotel, owned by the same family for more than 100 years, and many of our...

This time we revisited for Sunday Lunch in the Devonshire Restaurant which remains a bastion of decorum and olde English manners.

“Bar Visit to the Landsdowne”

Reviewed 5 April 2013

We used to visit the Landsdowne Hotel for drinks every Sunday. The bar area is very pleasent and and quite modern. The Hotel is still going today, but some areas are in need of refurbishment such as the gents toilets on the ground floor. The staff are always very pleasent and the service is always good in the bar.

I was very surprised to read your comment about the gents toilets on the ground floor as both of them have been refurbished in recent years. However, I was pleased that you enjoy drinking in the Regency Bar, and would like to thank you for the kind comments you made concerning the staff and service provided. More

“Nothing but praise!”

It's sometimes interesting reading reviews on here and then experiencing the same thing first hand. Going by a good number of reviews we were expecting a somewhat dated, almost old fashioned hotel. It is by no means what you would call modern or boutique but the style fits perfectly with the design and period of the hotel and the general... More
