Great Western Hotel

Great Western Hotel

8/10 Good
"I liked this hotel, and it is in a great location. We had 2 rooms with sea views, and that was great. The breakfast was tasty and plentiful and the staff were generally fantastic. I had a bit of an issue the first night with our room and wind whistling through a window, but I was moved with no qualms to a much bigger room that was much better. I believe this was a family room. The hotel is a bit of a warren to navigate as it is quite sprawling, but this is a minor thing in my eyes. I would go back"
