Impressive 100 year old hotel sitting on top of the hill. Very good value, clean and great staff. However, walls were thin, my neighbour turned on their tv at 05:45am every morning and when they ran their bath it sounded like roadworks with the pipes vibrating. Great value though and Staff were pleasant and very helpful.

Lovely hotel BUT

The hotel and staff were excellent they did their very best. However it is GROSSLY understaffed. and it shows. I felt particularly the resteraunt service was very slow just because it was understaffed. They did there best but were stretched. Tea & coffee were served in identicle pots and the crosover flavours were obvious

Unfortunately we had no hot water in the shower. The TV was not working properly and the windows were jammed shut. A member of staff pleasantly tried to sort the hot water issue but we only achieved a warm temperature. Maybe we got off to a bad start seeing all the signs instructing us to pay for car parking on arrival. This is not welcoming.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff friendly and helpful tho woefully undermanned, every staff member seemed to have 2 or 3 jobs.they were excellent despite the pressure. Booked unto a"superior" double room ,it certainly was not. The room we were moved to was lovley a great improvement. One thing that stuck in my throat the new parking policy: to pay almost£150 a night and then to b charged to park at the hotel is quite frankly digusting, especially as it is subject to dynamic pricing. I would b reluctant to stay here again solely because of this issue

Seaside hotel

Lovely setting on the water. Must pay for parking; our room is basic and could use bedside electric outlets. The toilet seat is broken and slides around. The place could use a bit of updating.
