We had an on suite overlooking the sea & pier. It was beautiful weather and we watched the little train going up & down the pier! We would have liked to go on it but time was tight. we had the windows wide open and the road was very quiet.

Location The room was very dirty, and there were bugs in my bed. The same was said for my colleagues who also stayed at the same time. In fact one of them left and slept in his car. Wouldnt stay there again!

Clean, quiet and good value. Would be happy to stay there again. My visit was in November when it was quiet outside. That said, I think it is at the quieter end of the town which is why I picked it. Difficult to use the ensuite washbasin because of cabinet overhanging it. A minor issue compared to all the good points. Won't put me off returning.

This hotel was a charming hotel in a great location. It offers great value for the rate charged and a marvelous hostess. Really cute place within walking distance of good food and amusements. If you like a small hotel feel this is the place to stay. Since I was there on a slow night I was upgraded to a larger room at no cost, which is a nice touch. The breakfast was wonderful as well.

My boyfriend and I have travelled extensively and had a wide range of experiences in a range of 0* to 5* accommodation. Often we will stay in local places to get a more personal service and a flavour of local life rather than the more bland, generic hotel experience. We certainly were not disappointed at the Gleneagles. We found all the staff to be really welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The room was spotless, the breakfast was hearty and the view from our room was amazing. If you want a typically British seaside break this place will tick your boxes.

Staff and owners of the hotel were very friendly and welcoming, great location too only a two minute walk to the shopping centre and bars etc. Yet the noise wouldn't disturb you. Overall I would recommend to a friend and if in the area would stay again.

Everything. Of all of the 4 star accomadation I have stopped at this is by far the best. I was personally greeted and shown to my roomrather than just told. Bedroom was spacious, very clean and the view was very nice. Bathroom was very clean Not so much a complaint more of an observation, the WiFi signal was very low causing me to drop out from time to time

Close to the beach and great location for where we wanted to be Our friends were not booked into the hotel on arrival despite making the booking with the owners wife over the telephone. Owner was not particularly apologetic or helpful about no room availability or trying to find another room locally. We understand that mistakes happen but it would have been nice to have some help

I found Deborah to be extremely helpful and friendly, especially as we did not know the area at all. Our room was supurb and the breakfast excellent. They run a very nice property and as I travel a lot in my business, see all sorts. I will definately return next time in Southend! L. McNeny I wish the parking was more spacious but then that is a problem with most any property in that area, not just theirs.

The accommodation was excellent. Breakfast was good. Staff were pleasant Bit disappointed they didn't offer evening meal. As a woman travelling on my own I kind of rely on getting something to eat in house.

“The friendliness and helpfullness of the staff was excellent. Knowing I was travelling solo, they made my stay as relaxing as possible; even choosing a table in the restaurant where I would feel comfortable on my own. The staff were very attentive. The view from the restaurant was lovely, even on the cold, windy, rainy day that I was there.” Julie, Redlynch, Wiltshire |
