Breakfast Breakfast was good well cooked
Room - Family room with sea view was large light and airy with 2 beds and good sea view
Location was close to amenities beach town and local theatre
Dinner - Reasonable choice, well cooked,
- Meals Breakfast - There were no Mushrooms available at one breakfast.
Dinner I ordered a starter of Pattie with toast. No toast appeared and complaint produced a hot bread roll
My wife ordered a sweet of Eaton Mess which, of course, should have included Meringue as advertised. It did not,
a complaint to the waiter resulted in no explanation.
My wife uses a wheelchair. There is no ramp and everyone must climb 4 steps to get into hotel. Is this legal?
Room - The hotel receives 3 to 4 coachloads of guests a day and they like entertainment at night between 8.30 to 10.45
every night. If you want to go to bed early DO NOT BOOK ROOM 108 or others on first floor at front of hotel as volume of amps is high and made settee vibrate. I would be surprised if paid staff could legally enter these bedrooms without hearing protection under HSE rules during the entertainment especially on Sunday night.

This is clearly a hotel designed to cater for coach parties, but it does so very well! The location is excellent - right by the beach, and close to harbour and shops. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My room was spacious and comfortable. There was even good entertainment laid on in the evening. Consequently, I loved my stay!
Wifi was good in the communal areas, but was not working in my 4th floor room.

We love it here! The location is fab. Parking just across the road near the theatre. It’s friendly and no frills. You cannot get a better spot close to the centre.

Breakfast was really good
Only saw the entertainment on Thursday night singer was very good enjoyed it
View from our bedroom wasn’t very good as the house/hotel opposite was horrendous and loads of rubbish in the garden but that wasn’t hotels fault.

a nice break in a granney hotel it was fun even the enteranment was good
the bed could have been bigger and it needs a shower not just over the bath
6.0 / 10.0
Friendly staff and a clean hotel. Comfortable bed and decent water pressure in the shower. Good location and easy access to a very reasonably priced public outdoor car park. Breakfast was good quality for the price paid.
Room size was slightly smaller than I'm used to but it is an older traditional seaside town hotel. We were on the top floor and for a summery day in a room with no Aircon meant the room was stuffy. Due to the room being so warm we needed to sleep with the windows open which for a seaside hotel with nearby nesting seagulls we were woken early from around 0630. Finally the room partition wall and a few squeaky floor boards meant surrounding rooms were very audible.
The price we paid was about right (if a little on the pricey side) when factoring in these issues. A good option for many though as long as you are prepared on these points.

Breakfast was good, service excellent, location was fantastic, bedroom need updating, a lick of paint can do wonders.
Creaky floor, uneven.

Fairly large size room. Sea view. Parking available on site (limited).
It is not a standard type of hotel, but a “coach hotel”. Receiving elderly citizens. Not ideally suitable for families with children, or couples traveling around the UK.

Reception staff were pleasant, and the hotel is in a fantastic location and the room was a good size.
Cleanliness, huge cobweb hanging from the ceiling which obviously had just appeared overnight.
Breakfast was a terrible set up... wait to be seated and no one came, 3 members of staff running around with no plan on who and how they were serving people. Had to ask for glasses for juice - young lad very helpful. Had to ask for coffee, had it almost thrown at us by the older gentleman who then was very rude when we asked how to order breakfast, eventually got given the most overcooked food I've seen.
Sat and watched lots of others who arrived after us get served and witnessed 2 others complan. DIDN'T BOTHER TO EVEN HAVE BREAKFAST THE 2ND MORNING!

lovely old building (once owned by my grandparents). has seen better days but obvious they’re trying their best to maintain it and it’s perfectly acceptable for such an old hotel
just tiny details of aging

The room was a good size & had a good outlook. The breakfast was very good. The location was ideal for the theatre.
The check in time was 4pm, wished it could have been earlier. The car park only had enough space for 6 cars which was far too small for the number of guests.
