We found this hotel to be in need of a refurb and then some pictures on the walls of the very high ceilinged room. We booked a suite for a special occasion and were a bit dissapointed. The bathroom was the best bit, but you were forbidden from using the hand spray as a shower incase you got the floor... More

Stayed for a wedding in the town. Rooms small. TV didn't receive channels properly - new digital switch over to blame apparently, but they maybe could put an new aerial in? Friendly enough and rooms clean. More

My fiancé and I stayed here and we found it a very pleasant experience. Our room was very clean and nice looking and the bathroom is gorgeous. Breakfast was perfect and filled us up so much that we didn't get hungry until dinner which saved us a lot of money on lunch!! There is a sauna, gym and steam showers... More

Many thanks for your kind comments. Yes, we are replacing all mattresses which should all be done by the end of October. There is also a major investment planned over the winter months which I hope you will come and see next year. I don't know how the smiley face got there either, nor how to get rid of it... More

Unfortunately, it appears that this guest may be stretching the truth a bit. The building was built in 1895 and may slope a little. I have never noticed a slope in this room. If there is nobody in the bar at 11 pm we do close the bar. The lights to the bar and lounge are switched off. The outside... More

Good cleanliness and comfortable bed (big positives) but otherwise very average. Public areas are rather tired looking. One waitress at breakfast was professional and very courteous but the others were far from inspiring (although the breakfast itself was good). If this was an especially cheap hotel I would have given a higher rating - but its not. More

Many thanks for your review. I'm very pleased you found the hotel clean and comfortable; we try very hard to ensure it is. However, I'm very surprised that you found the public areas rather tired looking as it has been recently refurbished. Whilst it is minimalist, it is designed to be this way and I for one like it and... More

Many thanks for your review and we are pleased you found everything to your satisfaction except for the seagulls. We are in a seaside location and like most seaside towns we do have seagulls which are a protected species. Like you say, there is nothing we can do about it. Best regards Malcolm More
