Parking on site. Very helpful reception staff on check in. We’re very late and their restaurant was closed. Gave suggestions on where to go. Recommendations were spot on. Comfortable bed. Great breakfast and good sized restaurant. Customer service was excellent.

H&S Gone Mad

Over zealous health & safety on food allergy made for a frustrating stay. Sadly this prevented this hotel from being the perfect hotel in a perfect location. Staff were friendly and welcoming and the hotel manager did his best to accommodate within the H&S policy.

Room was small and extremely hot with no AC and No fridge. The double bed was small and felt lopsided. The floorboards were creaking and bending and felt like your foot may break the boards under the carpet. The shower curtain didn't close properly. Room was desperately in need of refurbishment. But the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. Location and parking were excellent, but unfortunately the room was not worth the money.

Really welcoming staff at check in and at the pub in the evening. Room was simple but clean and bathroom was large. The fans provided for the hot days were very welcome! Best part of this hotel is how close it is to the seafront.

Lovely room, spacious, well equipped, sea view. Excellent choice for breakfast- service great and cooked breakfast was delicious. We had a couple of small issues - the seagulls on the roof were extremely loud, resulting in us getting very little sleep. Kitchen extrator fan was facing our balcony resulting in noise and cooking fat smell being directed towards us which was unpleasant

Our family of 2 adults and 2 teens stayed in the family room overlooking the street. The kids loved the 2 bunk beds in the smaller room and the main room was very comfortable. The hotel has a old- world feel that really made it feel unique (to us Americans at least) and seemed so perfectly appropriate in this classic costal town. The included breakfast was absolutely fantastic in terms of the service, variety, and quality. Proximity to the local sights was unbeatable and the parking lot in the rear was extremely welcome since we drove in. Cannot recommend this hotel enough!!!
