A very tired hotel

The staff here are great. But the hotel has seen better days, much better days. The windows just didn't seal so we had a gale blowing in all night, VERY tired decor and threadbare carpets, very noisy fan in the bathroom. The shower wasn;t a mixer, you just had to try and balance the hot and cold. Breakfast was expensive at £14 and not very good. Hours were 8 to 10, we went down at 9 (so not late) and the food was stone cold. The coffee, although marked as filter or instant, was all instant. Very basic choice of non cooked. For the money I expected alot more. Give it a miss and go in to town. Parking is a nightmare. I drove around for about 20 minutes looking for a spot. I did find somewhere but it was a bit dodgy with the double yellows.

Amazing history

This hotel has an amazing history and needs to be supported so it can be preserved. Our room was a really good size (triple) and had a separate dressing area. The breakfast was excellent value. The bathroom is due a revamp but was still serviceable. Make sure you check out the piano bar and main stairwells.

We had a very comfortable mini-break, looking for a seaside hotel with a bit of character, rather than anything bland and corporate. This fitted the bill very well. The rooms are large and understandably a little challenging to heat, but the staff managed well and we had a pleasant and very well-done evening meal on one of the nights.

The staff are pleasant and the public areas are ok but my bedroom was the most depressing hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. Outdated decor, a weirdly low bed with a mattress like a marshmallow, and a shabby bathroom where I couldn’t face using the bath or shower. The 1970s want their hotel back.

good pick near Hastings

Great stay as we traveled the south coast of England. Wonderfully walkable waterfront with a lot of restaurants just steps away. Very nice and helpful service at the front desk, and parking was super easy.

The hotel could do with a good cleaning. The bed is the worst I have slept on and I have used budget hotels. Requested an Iron it took an hour for one to be provided after several calls to the receptionist.

It was an incredible building and my room had a spiral staircase in it! Very old fashioned and a marvel to see. It’s quite outdated though, my cold tap didn’t work and the plughole was quite full with hair so the water didn’t drain… but that was part of the charm of it in a way. If you k own what to expect, it’s great - location, value and view!
