The Oak Hotel  

clean, friendly and good quality

no onsite parking

Situated near marina/port/beach and at the same time in the midst of goings on in the town.

The room had the only window turned towards backyard, and the smoke and smells from adjoining restaurant were filling the room. There were no other venting means, so we had to bear with the smells. Sea-view rooms presumably don't have this flaw, and there comfort and value for money are good.

Some of the reception staff were very helpful. The beds were comfortable the showers were good, nice TV(flat screen) the hotel is fully non smoking and for an old hotel(building) it was refreshingly free of the smell of smoke.

The fact that there was no elevator. This made it exceedingly difficult to manage a two year old child as well as a baby in a pram. There was no parking lot and since we arrived at 02:30 we were not aware of the parking regulations and received a ticket the following morning. There is however an arrangement with the long term parking garage close by and it would have been good to have been informed of this before we booked the hotel. The sea view was fine but noisy. When we booked two rooms we assumed they would be on the same floor and preferably close to one another. We were allocated rooms on different floors, so make sure you ask for adjoining or rooms together when booking. The food wasn't great.

The Location of the hotel was excellent as was the friendly attentive professionalism of the Staff. Great Reasturant

None from Us a lot was said about local noise from other reviews but having had a Sea View room we found it no more intrusive than the road noise at home in London

The location of the hotel is very good, right on the harbour near the town bars and restaurants

There are no lifts in the hotel so walking up endless stairs with a case is a nightmare as it's like a rabbit warren. I stayed right at the very top of the hotel so it was very disappointing that the noise of the bars were so loud plus you could quite clearly hear peoples conversations even with the windows locked. The bars dont close until 3am not good if you're trying to sleep. There is no parking at the hotel so you can buy a voucher for the multi story car park which is over a 5 mins walk away. There is no place to stop outside the hotel to drop off bags or pick people up.

Close to beach; harbour and boating pool a ten minute walk away. Clean and staff friendly and helpful.

No parking facilities but you could buy a 24 hour parking ticket for the multi storey car park from the hotel reception. However, this was told to me after I had just fed the parking meter with a lot of money. Room only had view to three other walls and huge pipes with noisey air vents/conditioner /extractor. Was hoping for a harbour view. Room was very hot even with the window open, with the air extractor outside.

Friendly staff . The manager was very welcomeing and took time out to say goodbye on our departure which was a lovely gesture.

helpfulness and friendliness of all the staff - nothing was too much trouble - would go back

I was only booked in for 1 night ,insted of 3, so had to move hotels for 3rd,night.other than this my stay at this hotel was fine.

Went to the open golf, location great, staff good & friendly, The hotel is more like a pub, coffee shop, resturant with rooms but it works well, The bar food was exellent the rooms tidy. The hotel is on the very lively harbour side with plenty to do.

The area is very lively hence the noise at night till late, so put the tv on timer and drop off, Price a little high but it was the open golf weekend.

Very clean staff friendly good choice of breakfast good bar food reception staff helpful and friendly

Room201 that was allocated to myself and mrs harvey very small view looked out on to a brick wall should have asked for room change as I booked for the weekend my other work friends got room 308 much nicer and bigger room shann davis

The staff were very helpful when we asked to change room as it was tiny and looked onto a brick wall 2 foot away !. Had to pay extra for a superior room which was nice. Staff were very friendly and resolved problems quickly.

Standard rooms are very small, the rooms with sea views are very noisey as there are bars below. Many of the rooms without views look onto a brick wall of the next building. Its a long walk up to the 4th floor !.

had excellent weather for the time of the year. room had a very good view of the harbour and was very comfortable

excessive noise from the bars outside the hotel until the early hours during our saturday night stay. otherwise no other problems
