Although our room was quite small it was well equipped, cosy and quiet. The hotel itself is situated high up overlooking the water and at a perfect distance from the noise and the bustle of the town which is, quite frankly, awful! However, if you stay on the front and enjoy all that is good about the British seaside you... More

This hotel needs TLC, it has recently changed hands and is now used mainly for contractors, the standard has dropped, bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were thin. But the one redeeming factor is the lady who cooks the breakfast, she is a gem and cooks a mean brekky.

The hotel has got plenty of nice features which set it apart from your standard seaside town hotel. The shower in the room was lovely and had only recently been installed. The rest of the features in the room were nice and clean, if simple. Rooms with sea views are recommended as it is a beautiful sight to wake up... More

Booked here because we was going to a show at the cliffs pavilion and left it too late to go to the travelodge which meant that this hotel was cheaper! Wasn't looking forward after some reviews. But I emailed them asking if they can provide us with a bath and not a shower as I hate showers in hotels and... More

Stayed for the week, room was perfect - obviously a lot of refurbishment has taken place and it was very nicely decorated. Clean throughout and all staff were very friendly. breakfast was excellent and a great choice from full English through to cereals and toast a good choice too. Highly recommend

We booked a room for us and our teenage son over the easter weekend. We are happy to camp but when we book a hotel we expect a certain degree of comfort and service. There's quaint and shabby chic and then there's this hotel which was just plain shabby. Our room was tatty and smelly, with yellowed, chipped woodwork, no... More
