Initial impression was of a Tired Hotel that lacks identity … great shame ias it has a fantastic location … our room had a great sea view balcony but with a children’s playground directly below ! The room was clean but had a dated feel. The restaurant had great views but the food was basic . My partner and I went for a marvellous swim in the morning across golden sand and we ate a good buffet breakfast with a fabulous sea view although obscured by a big wooden shed ! So potentially 5star amenities but delivered (apart from the beach ) a very 3 star experience !!! Would I go again ? ….

This hotel is in a fantastic location, we had a lovely room with a huge balcony overlooking the beach. Unfortunately it’s a bit tired. Furnishings are past their best and water pressure in the bathroom is terrible. Staff were all friendly and helpful. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nigel 13 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Relaxing Hotel Lovely hotel very relaxed and close to restaurants etc ##### Nigel Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sarah 28 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service We go every year and this year the service was poor as the bars closed when there was people wanting drinks on the terrace you get served pints in plastic glasses and more expensive than up the road in steins ! Breakfast finished at 9.45 and heat lamps turned off and then I usually take a coffee out on terrace after breakfast in a takeaway cup and was told manageress had told them to remove the take out cups … 2nd coffee machine out of order and that was out of order last year ! Disappointing overall ##### Sarah Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel and Spa Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-And-Spa-Chester.h527788.Hotel-Information) > > [The Park Royal Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warrington-Hotels-The-Park-Royal.h24462.Hotel-Information) > > [The Canford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-The-Canford.h14821585.Hotel-Information) > > [The Windermere Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-The-Windermere-Hotel.h13431161.Hotel-Information) > > [Lytchett Bay View Holiday home](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-Lytchett-Bay-View-Holiday-Home.h57678134.Hotel-Information) > > [Accessible Holiday Let In Secluded Location](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-Accessible-Holiday-Let-In-Secluded-Location.h33592554.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Cotswold Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-De-Vere-Cotswold-Water-Park.h1770053.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Oulton Hall Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-Oulton-Hall-Hotel.h15948.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [The Anchorage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-Loch-Fyne-Restaurant-And-Hotel-Poole.h10628285.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham-Cotswolds](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Cheltenham.h65899.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Christchurch-Harbour-Hotel-And-Spa.h18097.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Manchester-Airport.h75715089.Hotel-Information) > > [Ufford Park Woodbridge Hotel, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodbridge-Hotels-Ufford-Park-Woodbridge-Hotel.h12685.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-Dunston-Hall.h519081.Hotel-Information) > > [Redworth Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newton-Aycliffe-Hotels-Redworth-Hall-Hotel.h517266.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bolton-Hotels-Last-Drop-Village-Hotel-And-Spa.h9341.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday home with Panoramic Sea Views](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-Rockley-Park-Family-Caravan-With-Panoramic-Sea-Views.h48877235.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Grosvenor-Pulford-Hotel-Spa.h790572.Hotel-Information) > > [Salterns Harbourside Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-Salterns-Harbourside-Hotel.h3024.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Towcester-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Silverstone.h48251404.Hotel-Information) > > [Rose and Crown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poole-Hotels-Rose-And-Crown.h38980391.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Bristol Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Bristol-Airport.h16543862.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Wokefield Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-De-Vere-Wokefield-Estate.h1044123.Hotel-Information)
