Had a lovely week away, hotel was a bit dated but that’s what you get in a period property. Our room was very spacious with a great sea view. Breakfast was really good with a lot of choice.

The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. Our room was clean although quite basic. Breakfast was really good with a big choice available. We had a very enjoyable stay and the only reason I marked it down was due to the hotel looking tired in different areas and could do with a refresh.

We have stopped here many times and it remains excellent value for money. Sure, its an old hotel, that gives charactervand charm, the staff are really good, friendly snd hrlpful. The rooms are clean, presentable and good value. The breakfast has everything you could possibly want. Location is excellent, on the sea front, central and has its own parking, charged atba very reasonable rate. Highly recommended, value for money hotel. If you want a mid range accommodation, its ideal

Very nice breakfast. Excellent staff. Super location opposite beach. Furniture rather too big for the room, making it awkward to get around, and TV at an angle that gave my neck a crick, but these were minor inconveniences, as everything else was excellent.

You can see how wonderful this old building would have been in the day. It has a kind of charm but feels like it could literally crumble at any moment it's clean and the staff are lovely. It's cheap and with a little bit of nostalgia a lovely stay great view perfect location and I would absolutely stay again.
