The staff as ever were superb the property is catering for one offs nobody actually staying there for 10 days run down not busy food so so and heat Jesus the bedroom was like an oven .not to mention the bed the springs were fighting to get out. I actually thought stopping it might have changed but sadly not it's on par with the South cliff sorry but we probably won't be back for £1000 it was a waste of money. I hope it is addressed as you have some amazing staff from dining bar and front desk.pleasr make it better or you'll end up with no foot fall at all.
This was our second visit within a week. Reception staff were very cheerful and helpful. Our room (231) was much better this time, very spacious and clean.
Great location right on the doorstep on the channel. Staff really friendly, romms clean and well kept. The bar was nice and decent variety of drinks. We didn't eat as i was visiting a friend do went out but will definitely consider using again wjen I'm back down.
Very friendly staff even checking later.
We could still have dinner in bar with dog at last moment.
Room great, very well updated and clean. Bathroom lovely. Apart that the water in shower only trickled. No nice full stream
I would like to highly recommend the rooms, and I found the fan in the room to be a wonderful addition. The room was clean, spacious, and featured a comfortable bed and sofa, along with a large television. It provided everything necessary for a truly pleasant stay. Thank you very much.

Liked: Cleanliness
The cleanliness wasn't to a high standard and the building was tired and the repairs or replacement sections (new and old) didnt mix.
The bar areas were modern, clean and friendly staff although there appeared to be young inexperienced staff in the restaurant that needed a shake up.
We felt our beds could have been cleaner and questionable whether the bed linen had been changed.
Okay for a one night stay.
Bathroom had a mouldy smell
Staff was not unpleasant not pleasant neither
Room was ok
The cream in the bathroom was off.
They have a very small park which is always full as they don’t check who parks there.
Apparently I booked a small double room. Last time we stayed here (two years ago) we had a very large double room and that was what we were expecting this time Imagine our surprise in finding a room not much larger than a broom cupboard. So if you are booking a room here make sure you are booking a large room if you want a double.
The hotel was full but there seemed to be few people about. It was very quiet when we returned from a function at about 21.30
There is limiting parking provided by the hotel. Parking on the road outside (Earl's Avenue) needs a £7.00 a day permit from the hotel. There is free parking on the Leas - turn right immediately after the hotel.
Breakfast was OK. Nothing really to excite those who love breakfasts. Staff all very friendly and helpful.
Warm efficient welcome at reception, lovely bedroom and bathroom, excellent restaurant and bar.
Close to large grassy area overlooking sea, great for dog walk
