The breakfast was excellent - nice rashers and sausages. It was being renovated so there was hoarding around the outside, but that did not bother me. Rooms being renovated with sea view looked as if they will be really nice. Room 13 was spacious with a nice clean bathroom. Would stay here again. ##### Peter Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jane 12 Sept 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel is a 200 year old building and it really felt like it needed painting everywhere. We stayed in a superior twin room, the beds were not comfortable and the bathroom did not feel clean. Saying this all the staff were amazing and could not do enough for you. My mum needed extra blankets on the first night and they were brought to us straight away. The continental breakfast was really good as was the food in the restaurant. ##### Jane Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jim 24 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities At the moment there are scaffold on the outside, it didn't affect my stay.

Fantastic location on the beach front. All of the staff were friendly, the room was a decent size and very clean. Bathroom was also a good size with a powerful shower and extremely clean. It's a touch on the old side and is currently being renovated but honestly for the price it exceeded all expectations. The breakfast is genuinely superb as a particular highlight. ##### Paul Robert Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerry 18 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Clean and comfortable ##### Kerry Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Yvonne 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service The location of the hotel us perfect for The Spanish City and the beach. The hotel is under renovation and it looks closed. Reception is old and outdated. The staff are nice and helpful. Rooms are ok, bedding was clean and the sea view was great. Breakfast was standard buffet. The breakfast staff are very nice. If they are also renovating the rooms, this will be a fab place. But, at the moment, its ok. Parking is approx 8 or 9 spaces at he front on a first come first served basis. We were lucky to grab a space. ##### Yvonne Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Tyler 15 Jun 2025 Liked: Amenities Excellent staff and service throughout, property feels a bit run down though.
