Great overall

Stayed recently and overall had a really good experience. The hotel and room were exactly as expected clean, tidy, well presented and very comfortable. Staff were genuinely pleasant and helpful throughout the stay, which made a difference. The location is excellent, with some lovely outdoor seating areas, and parking was straightforward with a car park just underneath the building. However, breakfast let things down a bit. There were quite a few issues with availability. Basic items like sausages and bacon weren’t great quality, and trays weren’t topped up, so most of the continental options were gone early. Pancake machine was out of action and oddly, there weren’t any mugs available at any of the coffee stations. On the bright side, the pastries were fresh and the toast toppings were well stocked. Dinner at the hotel restaurant the night before was excellent though, which made the breakfast situation even more surprising. All in all, a solid stay and I’d return, but I’d skip the breakfast next time unless things improve.

Excellent rooms, great location, friendly staff. Downsides are the parking (hotel should publish that there is public car park nearby with directions to save customers driving around endlessly looking for parking in the restricted hotel parking facilities) and the restaurant on Sunday night was understaffed totally full and chaotic

The Hotel was Ok but, Queue'd for 15 minutes to check in to be told room not ready, come back about 4 (for another 15 minutes of queueing). Breakfast Saturday, 09:30 no clean tables, very little food ready kept being told it will be 5 minutes for fresh, took an age. Not enought staff to cope with the number of guests. despite having been out all day housekeeping arrived when we were back in the hotel after 17:00. Might be worth adding the £15 per night parking fee, that plus breakfast x 2 when it arrived bumped ther original attractive price by £40 per night

Inadequate number of staff and some in training phase. Meal quality was average with some basics missing such as mustard and other sauces. Wine selection poor and expensive. Breakfast choice and quality inadequate for 4 star hotel. Hotel clean but room cleaning was late in the day after follow up.

Fairly new hotel & clean. Bed comfortable. Room serviced daily. Shower =rain shower & a body spray. Breakfast disapointing. Scrambled eggs made with powdered egg. You could order other eggs & hash browns e.g poached/fried etc but this is not advertised & is very slow to arrive Yoghurt but no fruit to accompany it apart from sliced melon & prunes??

Pleasant stay

Booked 3 nights B&B in a premium seaview room, decent size room in good decorative order and vry clean with a nice large bed. Also had a coffee machine and fridge. Breakfast was a little chaotic, its a very busy hotel and there were a decent amount of staff but it just seemed like they were running around achieving little with food items constantly running out. The continental selection wasnt great and could have done with more variety on cereals and fresh fruit. It also seems strnge that fried eggs and hash browns had to be ordered separately. The bar area has a very nice outside area with some impressive planting. Overall it was great value for money and we enjoyed our stay.

A lovely hotel right on the sea front with excellent views across the bay. The hotel is conveniently situated for rail and bus links. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent breakfast. Very friendly staff, nothing is too much trouble for them. Recommend the superior privilege rooms at the front with sea view. There is parking at the hotel.This is our 4th stay at this hotel.
