Lovely hotel with lovely staff, all clean and bed was really comfortable and let down was the pillows I didn’t find them very comfy but that’s just my opinion
The Malmaison is a good hotel with good, quality rooms. The front desk staff are friendly and helpful. However, the service in the restaurant and bar area is terrible. At breakfast, I was greeted and sat at a table but then ignored. This happened on every day of my stay and it wasn’t as though it was busy. In the evening the restaurant also had the same issues. As a business traveller this is not helpful as time is an issue. I would not stay here again just on this basis. A great place to stay but not for breakfast or dinner!

It felt a bit depressing, especially after the walk from the rather neglected car park
This is a really great hotel and excellent value too. My room had a balcony overlooking the marina and the staff were all very welcoming and highly professional. I particularly like the decor in this place - even the corridors are cool. I've stayed in a few Malmaison places and they always give each location a particular character making each one a memorable experience.
I checked in quite late and only just made last orders in the restaurant (by a few minutes) but no one tried to hurry me up and they gave me plenty of time to peruse the menu and place my order (Thanks Alfie :-) ). Normally I don't tend to eat in hotel restaurants as they can often be rather uninspiring (captive audience), but the food here is absolutely superb! My rare fillet steak was cooked to perfection and really delicious. The portobello mushrooms were juicy and full of flavour and the truffle parmesan fries were really outstanding. Absolutely full marks to the chefs. This was one of the best dinners I've had in a long time.
Wholeheartedly recommend this hotel and you absolutely have to eat in the restaurant. Just Magnificent. Well done everyone!
We had a lovely stay, starting with a warm welcome from the young lady at the desk. We decided to get sandwiches from the bar menu for a late lunch which were really tasty, reasonably priced and of generous size. We had a large, comfortable, quiet room, which meant we slept really well. Overall, another perfect stay. Thank you Malmaison.
We arrived and were able to check in early. Our double room was compact but, clean and all we needed for the night.
Complimentary water would have been nice.
Staff were polite and friendly. We know and like the area for a change from staying on the main seafront in town.
Easy access to buses and taxis.
Lovely comfortable bed and shower.
