food excellent, staff excellent, location excellent, reception, bar and restaurant and seating areas excellent.

Cheryl United Kingdom

There was a slight problem with one of the rooms on arrival which was quickly amended and another good room offered. The man on reception was very attentive and couldn't have been more helpful. We had a large comfortable room over looking the sea. The bed was enormous and very comfortable. The bar and breakfasts were reasonable and had everything we wanted. We didn't have an evening meal at the hotel but the menu looked good. We parked easily in the hotel car park as it was November. The hotel is in a good location, 15-20 minute walk both ways to pubs and restaurants. There is a bus stop directly outside the hotel although we didn't use the buses.

Linda United Kingdom

Room was clean and bed comfy. A little tired tho in decoration. Sea Veiw was lovely from the room. Food in restaurant was very nice and terrace balcony at the front was a lovely place to sit with a drink.

Mandy United Kingdom

Sea View Twin room with 2 king size beds. Very good facilities. Comfortable beds. Double glazing worked well. The staff were very helpful some of the best we have experienced.

Dave United Kingdom

It was a great meeting place for my family to enjoy lunch and snacks in the sunshine. There outdoor area is always popular and busy. It was easy to walk the seafront from this hotel for myself to that of my family's. They had come down for a fiftieth birthday.

Gary United Kingdom

We booked the Premier king sized room because it had sea views and was good access from car park at rear of hotel and had a great walk in shower . The room looked refurbished and was very clean and had French window open to the front but could be noisy from traffic sometimes
