Location to eurotunnel In the past probably a very grand hotel but standards appear to have plummeted! Our room was dirty, the carpet was full of hair, the television was ancient and had very poor reception. The `bed head` was akin to the Turin Shroud, except these marks clearly indicated where many greasy heads had been.There was inventive plumbing, the overflow from the toilet cistern runing into the shower tray.In places the curtains were falling off the rails and most of the lamp shades were dirty and stained, the only positive suggestion I could make for this place is to demolish and start again, now that I have stopped itching.

Lovely Reception friendly, I came a day late after informing the agency....The Hotel rang me on the new arrival day to see if I was still comming ...[ Hotel not informed ] ....On arrival my card was reimburst for the missed day. The Hotel was once a grand place but has fallen below its grandure.The room was tidy but worn, the bathroom sliding door was only hanging by the top but safe. The bar has no ice but the drinks are a comendable price,Having said that Breakfast was above average and the staff were in good humer.We felt comfortable straight away....If you are looking for a budget week end its very good value

Nothing. This is a dirty, dated hotel kept to a lower standard than most youth hostels This hotel is dirty, shabby and uncomfortable. Showers are very difficult to use safely and breakfast is small and basic. No shampoo etc in bathroom - just a block of pink soap!!! Toilet was leaking so had to change room. The waiter/barman (thin white guy with black hair) needs some manners and a few lessons in customer service. He approaches tables and says "full breakfast" without any greeting or introduction whatsoever. The mature female waitress is equally hopeless. They should take some lessons from the black guy who does have courtesy and good manners. If this hotel has any quality accreditation, I saw no sign of it, whih tells me it does not. This hotel needs to be losed down and refurbished. Cheap coach holiday hotel for pensioners.

It was nice and quiet. It is near sea/beach views. The room was neat and tidy. Breakfast was certainly "full English" and enjoyable. The channel-change button on the room tv didn't work. I did mention this but wasn't bothered because I'm not a tv fan!

The room I stayed in was basic but clean and large. Very good value for the money I paid and the staff all seemed very helpful and friendly. Somewhere good to stay if you're on a budget.

This hotel is very convenient as a stop off on the way to the Channel Tunnel which is about 20 minutes away by car. The staff were good and the ladies at breakfast were very hard working. The barman was friendly, informative and helpful. The location on top of the cliff is enviable. The Full English Breakfast was quickly served and was well cooked and not greasy, although not a large portion. Overall, a good stay. The hotel is a lovely building but it is very run down and somewhat shabby - just painting it the same colour throughout and putting down the same carpet throughout would make a huge difference to its appearance and therefore people's perceptions, but I realise this would be a big expensive job. The smell of artifical air fresheners did nothing to improve it. But, we knew we would arrive late late and leave early, and just wanted a cheap place to sleep, Considering we only paid £39.50, our expectations were not high and I think we got value for money.

Great value for money, excellent and helpful service. The wine in the bar is not very nice. That's all that is fair to complain about for this great value hotel.

Hotel appearance a little shabby and dated but room clean, bed comfortable, staff friendly and nice full English breakfast. So what more could you ask for if you just want somewhere to lay your head? We used the Salisbury as attending a wedding at a nearby hotel where one of the guests had paid nearly double that we did for a single room (no breakfast) which she got a refund on as room was so small with polyfiller in the bath!

It was a great stopover on the way to the Channel ferry. The price was good and the room comfortable although furnishings/shower a little 'tired'. For example, the curtain was hanging off its hooks. We thought the breakfast was excellent.
