A grand old hotel. ##### Marion Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Susan 6 Oct 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities The hotel was ok for a one night stay, and the staff were helpful. It is tired and needs some maintenance. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast was good, but for the price we paid it wasn't great value. ##### Susan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### paula 23 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing views Comfy beds decent staff reasonably priced defo will return ##### paula Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denise 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### great location Hotel old and tired but very clean and comfortable and in great location. will definately stay there again ##### Denise Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### MaryAnn 13 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is a 'Grand Dame' for sure but has seen better days but for the location and value it is a fantistic choice. Our stay included breakfast which was a plus but the coffee was terrible so go with the tea and juices. Car parking was at ≠£6 per day but space is limited, best is to request in advance of arrival. ##### MaryAnn Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Rachael 18 Sept 2025 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Location is fantastic!! The hotel is old, but needs much refurbishment. The lounge, entry area and all are pretty, but the bed in our room needs replacement. If I had it to do over I would have paid more to stay on the coast in a similar location. ![Great location ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/baee6640-5b9c-4a01-a96f-c00c029fa67f-1758218886737.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Bathroom circa 1940](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1b290249-5368-4539-943c-171d207b9c7a-1758218890317.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Lounge has a nice view ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3489ded1-d044-4dea-9887-4907b92a729f-1758218890218.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c8668821-d3a2-41a4-b655-859dc107e59a-1758218889995.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rachael Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeanne 21 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities This was a beautiful property with an incredible location overlooking the bay.
