The stay was just for overnight on way to Edinburgh. The hotel itself ok but the town was cute walkable and right on the North Sea. Found a great pub and then a restaurant for an amazing dinner. The hotel did live up to the haunted tales as we did experience something paranormal but not scary.

Hotel was clean, spacious and quiet. In need of decoration. Owners say they have taken over hotel and are in process of redecoration. Was quiet and peaceful.

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff. Good food. Clearly there are some issues regarding the management if the hotel as the decor was tired, some things like the bathroom extraction did not work and it was evident that underneath the beds had not been cleaned in a long time. But overall the stay was pleasant. Overpriced for what you get.

2/10 Poor

Please do not stay here Pros: central location in Alnmouth, with good pubs nearby. Staff were friendly (albeit not helpful) Cons: The pictures on the listing are not what the hotel currently looks like, it has been (badly) refurbished. The hotel does not have the free parking as advertised, the parking is on a busy street and is only valid for 2 hours at a time. Staff are impossible to find, it seems a one-man band in the kitchen, bar and front of house. We were shown 3 separate rooms, all of which were unclean; with black hair on the surfaces and carpets hair, paint stains on carpets, dust, blood in the sink, dirty cups, water damage from the ceiling, spider webs, and general damage to fixtures. The electrics around the hotel are generally unsafe, with flickering lights, corroded sockets, fire break glass points hanging from wires from the ceiling, and cables badly repaired with electrical tape. There was initially no toilet paper in the room, and we were then delivered 2 half-used rolls. There was no hot water in one room, and the other having hot water coming out in explosive bursts from the sink. The bed was hard, lumpy, and covered in black hair (but did not have bed bugs, I checked). The heating in the hotel is not adequate; you cannot control the radiators and there is no heating in the hallways or bar area.
Dirty floors with silicone
Silicone and hair all over bathroom floor
stains (blood?) and hair in sink. Sink also explosively and intermittently spat hot water

Plain but comfortable room. Bar and restaurant areas exceptoinally and clean and well organised and a credit to the staff; who were welcoming, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile. Food was beyond expectation; this is great place to eat; and takeaways seem to be very popular.

Value for money ! Ok the hotel shows its age in places, but our room was very clean, the bathroom had recently been refitted and was excellent The manager "Sam" could not of been more helpful and friendly Highly recommend the Indian restaurant, which is partnof the hotel, probably the best curry I've every had !

I don't understand why the previous reviews were so negative. I've stayed in various hotels all over the world and this one was perfectly fine. Room was clean, bed comfy, bathroom clean and power shower worked great. Manager didn't speak great English, but once we got chatting, he turned out to be a really nice guy.

2/10 Poor

Very poor and not as advertised

Both hotel and room was not as advertised on website except for beer garden. Staff not friendly. Room was down a number of corridors and doors all of which were in poor repair. Room was not of a good standard and felt more like a hostel. I did not stay and booked alternative accommodation in the village as apart from the standard of whole hotel being poor, i did not feel safe as a female on my own

Not good

Understanding the hotel is in a 400 year old building and not wanting to sound like an entitled American. The hot water didn’t work none not a drop, that being said the beds sucked felt like I was on a box spring. Now that said the staff was grate and the food was good the location is amazing. We did however have a grate view of the roof top with old broken ironing boards and an old painting that was crumbling in the rain. The place has issues and not at all worth the price we paid

8/10 Very good

adequate

the hotel needs updating, the rooms were ok but require a little bit of tidying up, paint finger prints on inside bathroom door, cracked tile in bathroom, paint and finishing on walls needs addressing. indian meal amazing, breakfast ok. there needs to be someone in the check in area / bar at all times, i think it loses a lot of trade with there being no one there to greet public. all in all i would give hotel 5/10 indian meal 10/10 kev Lake Leicester

4/10 Fair

The service was poor with the hotel needing more staff. The breakfast was amateurish and the cooked bit was luke warm. The towels were still damp. This is the first hotel which I have had to remember to lock the room door. The room itself was a contrast - the bathroom was excellent but the room itself was dowdy. The corridor to the room was dirty and scruffy. The evening meal was fine.
