"Arrived in the heat wave Saturday 23rd May.
View from the room No43 was directly out across the bay, 2 floors down from reception level, the lift was slow and small.
The fan provided was broken and after asking twice we bought our own. The hotel did say they had none left to other customers who then left. At this time of year the seagulls were very vocal and building nests on any flat ledge. This also prevented us from having the windows open.
The style and location of the hotel is its attraction. The staff in the dinning room work hard and the breakfast food is always topped up. Again the view is wonderful and it is one floor down from reception using the same lift but not too many stairs.
Parking is a problem, you need to be patient or use a local multi-storey 5 minutes walk away. You are high up from the bay but each end of the hotel has a funicular railway.
It is a budget hotel but we would be happy to stay with Britannia again."
