Another lovely stay at this beautiful hotel. We had room 210, a twin room with magnificent views. We ate in the terrace bar and the food was delicious, the staff really friendly and attentive. The barman even did card tricks with us. Overall 10/10. This is my third visit and one of many more to come.

Stayed at this hotel for three nights and my room wasn't cleaned once. Visited the restaurant for a meal and it took hour and hour for a two course meal to be served,which a very long time to wait. The food was good,but service was not acceptable. The best part of my stay was the fantastic beach , which is assessable direct from the bar. It's a great beach,with a flat promenade to walk along.

I believe our reception manager has reached out to you personally to discuss your stay in more detail.

OK I'll be honest, when I pulled up my heart sank. It's got the old Pontins camp over the road so it looks a bit unwelcoming, but it's one of the best hotels I've stayed at. The receptionist was brilliant, and my enormous room was very clean, warm and comfortable. My bacon sandwich in the morning was delicious, with several slices of proper cooked bacon in decent bread, not the Asda Smartprice loaves that so many hotels seem to use. The only fly in the ointment was the gobby woman on the table opposite who seemed blissfully unaware that a telephone is for talking into, not yelling at.

Im sorry to see that you did not enjoy your visit, for this reason, I have enquired about your dining experience with our team, as this is not the experience we strive to provide for all of our guests. I can see that you ordered our light lunch special offer of cod and chips, which is a smaller portion of the main menu cod and chips. From feedback we have had previously, our main menu options can be too large a portion for a lunch time meal, so we have introduced this menu during the week to run along side our main menu for those that enjoy a smaller portion. The lunch time special is a set menu served with mushy peas. Im sorry it did not meet your expectations. Thank you for your review, It's through feedback like yours that we are able to continually assess and improve our service.

To be fair it's a lovely looking hotel in a beautiful position in the beach. It's been revamped recently so the interior deco is lovely. However the food is really below standard for the price. I had a chicken balancing the first night which was very dry and vegetables also dry and some undercooked especially the potatoes. The second night was cajun pasta which I had to send back as it was absolutely swimming in oil which I actually poured out into a glass to prove a point. The waitresses and bar staff were lovely and very apologetic so not their fault. The others issue is the bedroom windows open completely and being in thr 3rd floor I was extremely surprise so not child friendly at all .... but as I say, staff were lovely, location great, decor and room very nice but food and window safety needs to be sorted.

I was excited to book this hotel as I had apprenticed there is 1970, 71. I sent them an email about my booking and excitement about coming home. They never even acknowledged my email. Disappointed in the cold greeting upon arrival by two people, very rude and unprofessional with no smiles or warmed. we were not given the room (222 above the bar and loud) we paid for and after calling down to the reception was told it was the one we paid for. While sitting for dinner I went to the front desk again and was first told it was the same room we had paid for and they were sold out. Only after sometime did the lady give me keys to another room 330 to view. This room was twice the size and had the view and matched the images 100% on the website. We were happy to get the new room. We paid for 4 breakfasts but only went for the first 2 days because here too we were greeted coldly and when asked if I could have a side of bacon on the second morning was first told no, when I offered to pay for it she went to check and delivered 2 slices of bacon that were very old and not edible. It’s very sad because I still left tips at each restaurant I visited and meals we ordered. When coming back to the hotel the original lady that checked us in asked so are you happy with the new room, I said I was but enquired why we not given this room in the first place. She said that all the superior rooms are the same which they are not and said well you got the room. No apologies. We felt we were beholden to their moods and attitudes and it was very uncomfortable. The hotel is lovely but the staff need to treat their guests better and go above and beyond with a smile. It is the nicest hotel in prestatyn with great views, I will not be staying there again or recommending it to anyone. If you book a room you need to be careful as there is a chance you won’t get what you paid for.

I am sorry to read about your less than satisfactory experience. It's disheartening that we did not meet your expectations. Your email had not been received by our team, which is why there was no response. Our goal is always to provide a warm and hospitable welcome to all our guests, and I'm sorry to hear that was not reflected in your recent visit. The issues you encountered with your room allocation are regrettable. We have 9 superior double rooms, and as the hotel itself is an old building, no two rooms are the same and all have their own charm. Our receptionist was able to move some room allocations around to free up a superior double for you to look at for your the remainder of your stay. Im pleased we were able to do that for you to look at and that you enjoyed the room during the stay once we arranged the room move for you. Your feedback is important to us as it helps us identify areas where we can improve. After discussing your review with our team, they have all commented on how lovely it was to chat with you whilst you reminised about your time here in the past. While we deeply regret that your recent stay was not up to the mark, we wish you happy and safe travels in the future.
