Location Breakfast Staff serving breakfast was super nice

Iryna

United Kingdom

The hotel is in a good location but right next to a busy road and nightlife which wasn't really blocked out by the thin windows that are on the property. We also had a room which faced the aforementioned road. The room was large which was good and clean but needed a bigger TV. The breakfast was very nice.

Kristian

United Kingdom

The breakfast was extremely good, the staff were excellent. Location was perfect for the international centre, and centre of town, beach etc.

Richard

United Kingdom

The staff were all friendly and helpful, with genuine care for their guests. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. The central location (just a couple of minutes walk from the pier) is excellent. The breakfast was superb and there was no 'wallpaper music' playing, just the sound of conversation and cutlery. The hotel is undergoing substantial renovation, but the staff and builders did their absolute best to minimise disruption to guests.

“Very convenient in location. Comfortable, friendly hotel serving great breakfasts.”

Rather unfortunate that the dining area is still under renovation. I am sure once this is finally finished my review would have been more favourable. As it was, there was no communal lounge area in which to sit and relax with friends (apart from BarSo which was not to our liking). Our rooms were booked almost a year in advance and renovations were supposed to have been finished by July, so disappointing. Hopefully there will be a lounge area once restaurant is up and running and more opulence in window drapes also would add to a cosier ambience as opposed to the present stark decor.
Room very clean with a comfortable bed. Breakfast was very good. All staff were friendly and professional and helpful.

It would have been nice to have been forewarned of the refurbishment being undertaken. Also found it difficult to sleep after 6 am due to constant noise from what seemed to be a unit switched on and off.
