The walk along the waterfront is elegant and safe, even at night. The staff are wonderful and if you like good, old-fashioned service and a traditional English breakfast, you will love it. The pool, bar and lounges are spacious and comfortable and the rooms are clean. ![One has arrived.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/daf746b9-94b3-42ee-b3d2-35110785c3a5-1758384104916.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Agatha Christie honeymooned here.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/137f0935-bcca-4744-9a25-1c6d37d7a85d-1758384144161.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Full !

Hotel bar is gorgeous but swimming pool area needs some attention and more loungers. Rooms at the top of the hotel are incredibly hot but a fan is provided (we only found that the next morning!). Staff are super friendly and helpful. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kristen B. 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hotel is close to train station and staff are nice.
