Horrible soulless, don’t waste your money here

Annoying scam type “hotel”. No reception or any humans at all. Cold uncomfortable decor, some kind of prison style bs shower where you have to hold down a button to make it work, annoying to get into and basically a sh**ty room with no facilities. So f***ing expensive. Total waste of time, wish we stayed at a local family run bnb. You just know the money from this place is being siphoned off to some real estate mogul sitting in a high rise in Dubai. Totally rubbish do not waste your money here.

Doesn’t matter what room or option you take, the place is dated and there is no sense of luxury. Booked a suite, but honestly, not worth it. Just avoid this hotel if you are looking for anything other than a roof over your head. They don’t service the rooms during your stay anymore either due to ‘policy update’… which policy is that? The don’t spend money on guests policy?

Poor and not at all what was expected.

The hotel itself like the common areas, reception, garden and bar were lovely and really well looked after. Modern and luxurious and very clean. Unfortunately the room was a different story. We booked a small double room and when we checked in we were told that we had booked a room without a window but because they had one with a window they would give us that. I did not book a room without a window as I saw this as an option but was not willing to be without a window. When we got upstairs to the west wing the whole feel of the hotel changed, it felt dated and dirty and it smelt. Upon entering our room we almost walked straight into the wardrobe as it was right in front of the door. I know that we had booked a small double room but it was absolutely tiny, it barely felt big enough for one person let alone two. The windows barely opened because there was a roof the other side, rubbish was lodged out the windows and the room is general was grubby and in need for decoration and a deep clean. There was a hole in the sheets and the sugar pot was dirty along with the bathroom floor. It wasn’t even a full size bath and the soap dispenser was broken. I know that we had booked a smaller cheaper room but I feel pictures online and the hotel itself were misleading of the room. We had a horrible sleep due to a small hard bed and slamming of doors at all hours. Unless you are booking a suite then I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

A very charming property, keeping an old Victorian style traditional feel. The bedroom was beautiful with a lovely feel. The spa facilities are good, just a shame they don’t offer treatments etc. The food is good, basic traditional British food, buffet style. The only 2 things on the downside were the very creaky flooring throughout the property- I imagine it would cost an enormous amount to renovate due to the age of the building. Also, being so close to the beach, parking is at a premium- and very expensive! The staff advised us on some alternatives i.e cheaper public parking locally, which did work albeit a bit inconvenient. With a little upgrading here and there, this hotel will continue to deliver lovely holidays to local and foreign tourists alike. The staff were very nice, helpful and accommodating. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel, for anyone looking for traditional and relaxing British beach holiday experiences i.e in-house entertainment, close to beach and pier amusements, plus a some more culturally diverse culinary and entertainment choices in the surrounding streets and the town centre.
