"Delicious breakfast and evening meal. The meal was reasonably priced. Couldn't turn off the aircon in our accessible room. It had a connecting door which was not soundproofed. The changing room for the swimming pool smelt and the floor was dirty. Staff were very kind and helpful and overall cleanliness was good. It was an easy walk to Tesco for last minute shopping."

Cavendish Hotel

Cavendish Hotel

8/10 Good
"We arrived earlier and were helpfully directed by a receptionist (Ozgen) about the location of their on-site car park (available on a first-come, first-served basis); the rate information on a 24-hour basis (£8 instead of £10); and how to log in car's registration number once it's been parked. We were unable to check in early, but left our suitcase securely in Ozgen's hands until we came back. Whilst waiting, we enjoyed basking in the beauty of the sea and the sun (as well as the shingle). We were also witnessed the Airbourne shows with the rest of the beach goers. Our double room was spacious with an entryway, my requested electric fan, and an ensuite bathroom. The main room had hinged picture windows, a mini fridge (cool enough for preservation level), or similar to what their advertised double room images. However, the mirrors' placements are different with no luggage rack, but a luggage cabinet. The actual ensuite bathroom with shower/bathtub combination. In my opinion, it was better because of the inset basin, which provided ample space for toiletries and other bathroom essentials. The entryway had a wardrobe cabinet with the safe and the iron/ironing board. Wish the carpet were thoroughly clean; another set of pillows was provided; and the windows' openings are in different directions to provide more privacy. There was a drinking water dispenser at the reception; and a bar balcony for relaxing nights whilst listening to live background music."

"Our room and bathroom was clean and comfortable. Only had a 1 night stay, tv, tea and coffee making facility in room, lots of storage space. Breakfast self service buffet was good, plenty to choose from. Good place for plane spotting, but our room was back of hotel so the plane noise wasn't a problem, maybe as the planes were coming into Gatwick and not taking off in our direction. All on all, happy with stay. Checking in was quick and easy. Staff all pleasant."
