We booked this hotel as a last mimute thing for a surprise weekend away for a burthday.The hotel was spotless. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel had some amazing views and lovely gardens. We didn't get to use the spa as only there from a Saturday to Monday so can't comment on that, both the restaurant and galaxy lounge were lovely. Good food. Overall a really lovely hotel and we will definitely be returning.

Good for Room 181. Very BAD for Room 147. Overall the Hotel is not bad. Located in a convenient location, walking distance to high-street. Hot spa for only £10 per person. I've booked 2 rooms. One is clean and tidy, the other is noisy and dirty. The room seems on top of the kitchen with hot air coming up. The staff rejected my request for changing room. She said that the hotel was fulled. At the end, she only provided a fan on request.

Room for improvement

Good location. My welcome was on the brusque side of efficient, my room small but adequate, but as seems usual with single rooms, was out back overlooking the bins. With a bit of cosmetic updating this place could be a real gem and I would stay again. The listing states ‘pool’, but when I asked about this at the hotel I was told it wasn’t a swimming pool but a plunge pool in the spa (for which you have to pay extra). So slightly misleading in my opinion.

Nicely located large old Victorian hotel

A lovely hotel in walking distance of amenities( or be it up a hill). The hotel room was a bit dated the room we had was above a kitchen. The smell of kitchen fat was alittle unpleasant. The spa area was quite good and clean. The hotel guest’s in general are lovely quiet older people, however you do get few tattooed boozers!!! Who at night seem to get a little noisy when people are trying to sleep!

The food was outstanding. We are in the bar area and the staff were amazing. Breakfast was delicious and a lot of choice. The evening entertainment was brilliant. The shower was terrible. We only stayed one night as we were attending a funeral so only used it once and we were in a hurry. At checkout, I mentioned that the shower needed attention as the water was barely flowing and that it was either scalding hot or ice cold. My cousin had ended up washing her hair in the sink. The receptionist was not really interested and said we should have called down and they would have sent someone up.

Large building hidden atop of hill at the end of a cul den sac with fantastic views looking at onto the ocean as you walk out of the reception. A quick walk up the steps outside the front of the hotel and you can see for miles out on the sea front. Hotel itself well looked not a 4 or 5 star but good if your on a budget the rooms are basic but clean. The bar restaurant area is probably the best most up-to-date modern part of the hotel. Well stocked bar and I didn't eat any of the set menu but had a drink in the bar which was fine and I did notice some entertainment going on as I went out in the evening. Good views at the front not so much around the rest of the hotel and I only had the most basic single room. Hotel is 5-10 minute walk down to the shops and bars depending on how fast you can walk and a small marina area where boats are moored. I visited in the winter still plenty going on but not many tourists about in January.

Overall okay

First appearance, the hotel looked okay but also needed some TLC inside and outside. The bedroom although looked clean, overall in places especially in the bathroom could do with a deep clean. The soap dispenser was not working and the TV remote definitely needed cleaning. The room was very warm and the thermostat on the radiator was not working, therefore we could not adjust the heating and the windows would only open slightly, which was deliberately set up that way. The bed was very soft and spongy definitely needed a new mattress. The spa area is definitely overpriced not worth the £10 charge. Whilst we were here the steam room and sauna was only lukewarm our bedroom was hotter. In the morning the breakfast was very good, good selection of items, very attentive service and a very pleasant view. Overall, not a bad hotel, but not great either.
