    The free parking at the front is tricky to navigate.

    The swimming pool is lovely! And the spa. The room was comfortable and clean and the staff were very helpful, most of them.

    Parking can be a little awkward but I didn't have any problems during our 11 night stay. Public parking on the Esplanade is £1.00 from 6pm to 10am.

    Excellent location. Staff very helpful and friendly.

    Lower priced room on the back of the hotel overlooking the High Street - terrible traffic noise with the windows open (so hot they had to be). Car parking facilities inadequate

    Beach location, helpful staff, room clean and tidy, good size, excellent bathroom. Towels changed frequently

    Lovely long weekend break.

    Car parking is a bit awkward, with other cars boxing you in. We were boxed in the evening before we were due to catch a ferry home and so asked the hotel to ask that guest to move their car, so we could get out and park in an 'open' bay overnight. I have to say, the system worked and the car was moved very quickly, but for the system to work perfectly, every guest would have to let reception know where they would be every minute of the day! The other disappointment was that you couldn't book just breakfast or dinner, but had to book both as a package. We like to vary where we eat.

    Lovely room with balcony overlooking the beach. Beautiful bathroom.

    Amazing location and room but lousy house rules.
    • Leisure trip

    • Double Room with Balcony and Sea View
    • Stayed 7 nights

    We didn't want full board as we wanted to sample some of the wonderful eating places around the area. We did plan to have a few evening meals in the hotel and a few breakfasts but when we tried to book for our 37th anniversary we where informed that if we didn't take the offer that was on of breakfast and evening meal every day then we would not be able to eat in the hotel. This seems such a mean and foolish rule as the hotel must be loosing out on many people who, like us, would have eaten in on a number of occasions. Also we found out that tea and coffee was not included in the breakfast which is something we have never heard of before. These rules dampened our stay.

    The room was perfect and the sea view was stunning. It was a little bit awkward when someone was on the balcony next to ours as all that separated it was a plastic chain so you had no privacy at all. The bathroom and shower was really spacious and powerful.

    Noisy room led to some disturbances. Also would have preferred a later breakfast since the scheduled time was too early for a vacation stay. Beach facing rooms were booked which is understandable considering long weekend

    The room was good but right next to the stairs which made it quite noisy. When requested to change the room, we were told that others might be noisier

    I would have preferred it if the bathroom had been cleaned on day 2 of our stay, clean towels had been provided and the beds had been made. Also my son is in a wheelchair and it was very difficult to get him over the threshold at the back door.

    Location - fab

    The whole beachfront is lacking investment and many of the hotels are derelict so sad to see.

    A dated charm of candy floss and sandy beaches. Clean and tidy. Friendly and helpful staff.
